Lara Dutta understands that playing a 40-year-old woman in Bollywood is a rare opportunity for female actresses. In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Lara was asked about how men frequently play characters decades younger than their true age, but she stated that she has no desire in doing so.

“I think it’s great (women getting to play their own age). Yeah. And I hope it happens more. Why? Because for the longest time ever, we never ever, ever represented women in this country over a certain age. It was always the college-going or the 20-year-old falling in love for the first time. Any representation of women on screen was either the mother who has sacrificed everything, or the horrible saas or the suffering bahu, there was just no representation of actual women,” Lara said. In her new television series, Ranneeti: Balakot and Beyond, she plays a politician. Before it, she portrayed former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in BellBottom.

She added, “So I love the fact that today there are women on screen who are in all forms, you know, powerful women, vulnerable women, diabolical women, but women who are 40, 50 60, 70, and you’re finally being seen on screen. So I have no interest in playing a character that’s any younger than I am right now.”

Shah Rukh Khan recently played a 30-something in Dunki and Jawan, as well as elder versions of the same characters. In Laal Singh Chaddha, Aamir Khan plays a small child who grows into a middle-aged man.

Released on April 25 on JioCinema, Ranneeti: Balakot & Beyond is produced by Sunjoy Waddhwa and Comall Sunjay W from Sphereorigins Multivision Private Limited. The series boasts of a talented ensemble cast, including Jimmy Shergill, Ashutosh Rana and Ashish Vidyarthi.
