Sanya Malhotra, who is set to play the role of a homemaker in her upcoming film Mrs, recently shared her views on gender disparities in society. Directed by Arati Kadav, the film is scheduled to premiere on Zee5 on February 7. It follows the journey of a talented dancer whose life takes an unexpected turn after marrying into a male-dominated household.

Sanya Malhotra on society's expectations from women

In a conversation with ANI on Tuesday, Sanya spoke about the societal expectation that women should give up their careers after having children.

"From us women, there are a lot of expectations. It is very natural nowadays that a woman should leave a job after giving birth to a child. But the child is of both, right? It’s both the members’ responsibility. A good balance is what we need. Our characters may not be able to do but there are many examples. People should learn from them," she said.

Known for her diverse roles in films like Jawan, Dangal, Kathal, and Pagglait, Sanya attributed her success to her passion for learning and her willingness to take on challenges.

"I don’t like to put myself in a box. I have always taken bold steps. I love learning new things. I am actually very relaxed in life but when it comes to film I will be like I want to try everything," she shared.
