Commenting on the recent trend of women-centric films in Bollywood, Poonam said, “It’s a good thing that Bollywood is making more women-centric films. And while the audience is accepting well, then why should I do controversy. But jokes apart, I did ‘The Weekend’ because the audience is liking those films. Things are changing. So why not do something better?”
