Disha Patani recollected that the last time she saw a girl fighting on-screen was Katrina Kaif in Tiger Zinda Hai. However, Disha admitted that despite that, they still haven’t got a full-fledged female-led action film in the industry just yet. Disha Patani then added that be it any profession, girls are yet to get their dues. Disha Patani also added that people cannot imagine a woman fighting and have the idea that a female lead only has to be beautiful. The actor added that films are a reflection of people’s perspectives and are made to cater to their taste. In conclusion, Disha added that when the society accepts a woman doing action scenes, the films will automatically start showcasing that on screen.
