Actor Dino Morea, who was a regular face on the ramp before his Bollywood debut with the 1999 film Pyaar Mein Kabhi Kabhi, shares that the craze for models that the public had in the ’90s or early 2000s has changed now. In an interview with indianexpress.com, the actor shared his thoughts on why the number of models shifting to Bollywood has reduced. He says, “When I started modelling, it was sort of coming of age in India. Everyone who became a model at that time was idolised and I saw that happen to me also. That’s not the case anymore. If you are a good actor now, you get the opportunity. So, you don’t have to be a model first. “

 

Meanwhile, Actor Genelia Deshmukh recently opened up about her 10-year break from the movies. On Kareena Kapoor’s chat show ‘What Women Want’, where she was invited along with her husband, actor Riteish Deshmukh, she said she took a break from movies because she had been working a lot in various film industries and the couple “had a long distance relationship” so once they got married, Genelia wanted to “prioritise differently.” Many believed that since the Deshmukhs were a political family, they had asked Genelia to stop working in the movies but she said that this was not the case and that it was a choice she made herself and Riteish completely supported it.

If there’s a difference in the mother’s role, they offer me and it’s nice and feels good. After a certain age, I am still getting films and good roles, so I am lucky.”
