What Madhoo said In the interview, Madhoo clarified her earlier statement and said, “That statement was taken out of context. I said if, hypothetically..
. I am correcting myself now because I have evolved as an actor. I made the statement 2-3 years ago, in some other context.
In the 2-3 years, I have realized I have played many different roles. I played an apsara [fairy] in Shakuntalam with Samantha [Ruth Prabhu]..
. So when I play, as an actor, actually I am enjoying the liberty and freedom of being an actor today. Back in the 90s, we were put in a box.
We romanced, we sang, we danced. But now, with OTT, stories and content, I think that is kind of broken away. A lot of great opportunities are coming for every actor.
” 'Let me see if I am convincing' She further continued, “So, today I am thinking as an actor if I do get a role where they say you have to look older than Ajay, and play his mother's role, I would take it as a challenge as an actor. If I get a role where I have to play any yesteryear lead actor.
