Kalki Koechlin, the actress known for her roles played in films like Dev D, Margarita With Straw etc. has never opens up about her personal experiences in public or her thinking about co-actor in public. But recently Kalki shared her struggles of Bollywood.

Kalki said, "Yeah, in the beginning, I had to find jobs because every month's rent was a struggle. I didn't depend on my parents for it. They didn't have the money, and you know that they were hippies. When I was studying in London, I worked part-time as a waitress. I was teaching drama to kids. I did a lot of odd jobs to pay for my studies. I see it as a healthy struggle. I don't believe in becoming famous overnight."

The actress added further, "I think you're stereotyped after every film. Post Dev D, I was only offered bold roles. Similarly, after Margarita With A Straw, I was offered roles where I had to play differently-abled people. So, no matter what type of film you work in, people tend to slot you. It's up to an actor to consciously break that image and challenge themselves. Choosing different kinds of scripts and creating my own work through theatre is my way of dealing with it. I write because I don't want to be stuck doing the same thing."

On unequal treatment with actor in Bollywood, "Yes, but there are exceptions to the rule. People like Priyanka Chopra and Kangana Ranaut are really paving the way for successful women. It's encouraging. Generally, women are paid lesser than their male counterparts," she said.
