'It’s A Part Of It': Aditya Roy Kapur Opens Up About 'Objectification' In The Industry

Aditya Roy Kapur confessed whether he feels "objectified" in the profession and how much work he put into keeping his body in shape.

New Delhi: Aditya Roy Kapur is perhaps the most dashing man working in Bollywood today. His excellent looks are frequently mentioned with his lauded acting abilities. His most recent appearance was in the Anil Kapoor–starring 'The Night Manager'. Now, he has shared his feelings about being objectified. He also told stories about his early days in the industry and other personal experiences.

Aditya Roy Kapur was recently questioned about his feelings of objectification by Film Companion. In response, the actor simply answered, "No objection taken at all." Instead, he shrugs it off since he sees it as routine for an actor. 

Aditya said, "I started off as a VJ with Channel V and I was well into being objectified. My first promo introducing VJ Aditya was me taking my shirt off at Agonda Beach in Goa. So that has been happening since the start of my career."

The actor elaborated, saying, “I mean it’s a part of it. It’s a visual medium and if one can tick that box then it’s a good thing.”
