The 'Bajirao Mastani' star also shared the difficulties women have to face in the film industry.
She noted, "I've had people take away films from me because I might not have agreed with them. Once I was asked not to be a part of a cast because I was too ethnic. I didn't realize how hard it was until I came to North America."
The actress also shared that she took the opportunity to work in Hollywood as she wanted to break the ceiling for actors that looked like her.
