Bollywood actress Sonali Kulkarni under fire for calling Indian women ‘lazy’ and urging them to be more financially independent

Bollywood actress Sonali Kulkarni recently spoke at length about modern Indian women and how they wish for a well-earning, settled husband while giving no input in the household’s finances.

She even went so far as to call women ‘lazy’. She was quoted saying,’ Bharat mein bahut saari ladkiyan alsi hain (in India a lot of women are just lazy),’ she said.

‘They want a boyfriend or husband, who earns well, owns a house, and gets regular increments. But, in the middle of this, women forget to make a stand for themselves. Women don’t know what will they do.’

She added, ‘I urge everyone to bring up such women in you houses that are able and can earn for themselves. Who can say that yes, we want a new fridge in the house, you pay for half of it, I will pay the other half’. A small video clip with her speech is going viral on the internet and has got netizens furious.

Sonali’s comments drew flak online. One user wrote,’ Twitter should invent virtual slap. Ladkiyaan aalsi nahi hoti, half of the families in India dont raise their daughters to build careers, they educate them so they get good husband and they condition girls to believe marriage will be the biggest moment of their lives not their careers’.
