In a recent interview, she spoke about the unfair treatment towards female actors in the film industry.
In an interaction with Siddharth Kanan, Adah Sharma said, “I have worked with people from north and south, who were very amazing and not amazing also. I have realized it is the person. If your director is nice, irrespective of the language, everything goes very well. But if your director is not very pleasant, and not very nice, it’s just not a nice thing.”
The Kerala Story actor also maintained, “I have met the good, bad, and ugly in all the places. I find it very strange that they first call the girl on the set and then they say, ‘ok, wait.’ When they see, ‘ok. she is here’, then they call the actor’s manager and tell him to come on the set and the girl is already there. I feel discrimination on the basis of gender, I don’t enjoy working in an environment like that.”
However, success came at a cost for The Kerala Story!
The film became a part of an unwanted controversy over the portrayal of the conversion of Malayali girls into Islam by ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria). ALSO READ | WHAT!

The Kerala Story also stars Sonia Balani, Yogita Bihani, Siddhi Idnani and Devadarshini in crucial roles. The film produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah was released on May 5, 2023.
