TIL Desk Bollywood/ Discrimination has been a burning topic in the country. Actor Ayushmann Khurrana, who is continuing on the path of backing ground-breaking content with “Article 15”, says the film industry is a secular world where no one discriminates on the basis of caste or religion.
Ayushmann, whose filmography is dotted with unconventional stories, features as a police officer in Anubhav Sinha’s “Article 15”, a film which emphasises on prohibition of discrimination on grounds of religion, race, caste, sex or place of birth, which finds a mention in the Indian Constitution.
As for the film industry, Ayushmann told: “There is no discrimination in the industry. It is purely on the basis of merit. Nobody discusses caste and religion in the industry. If you are good, you are applauded and rewarded. The industry is very secular and democratic.”
