Yesterday, I was having discussion on films with one of my friends. We were arguing on who's the best actress in industry. While debate, he said something unusual. He said, 'All actresses are'wh*res', the only difference is that they live a more standard life than the regular prostitutes.
The points he pointed out were:
What is difference if you kiss on screen on in a closed room? Both actresses and prostitutes do that - just that the former gets paid more.
The excuse both of them gona give are that its their profession.
Prostitutes sleeps for bread, and actresses too also do casting couch to get role.
So, his logic was most of the actresses(may b actors too, but that we were only debating on heroines, so we didnt included otherany other aspect as such) do the things that a pr*stitute do, (for whatever reasons) so at the end of the day, there is a lot of similarity between, prostitutes and actresses.
Apart from making it a hot subject for debate, it may also help us in looking in Pr*stitues in a much more acceptable way, than vice versa.
PS: I know, that its unwise to lay undue emphasis on Sex thing in bollywood, but it was an instant dicussion especially on this subject. I dont take away any credit for the hard work that actresses do, apart from the casting couch and related things, that are supposed to be a part of job, but then its also unwise to say that sex is all what a pr*stitue does, after all the act doesnt even make a substantail part of time, if taken literally
Peace' ol
