Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor Khan recently hosted actor Anil Kapoor and filmmaker Anurag Kashyap on her radio show, What Women Want. During their conversation about women rights, the actress asked Anil about pay parity in Bollywood and if the wage gap between the salaries of the leading men and women in the industry should be addressed by the actors.

Kareena said that men in Hollywood stood up for female co-stars demanding equal pay for women and asked if Hindi film actors should do the same. Responding to the actress Anil said, "You took a lot of money from me.” Stumped by his response, Kareena laughed saying, “We are breaking barriers, we are doing that. But like you said, there are still some people…”

Anil further recalled the incident when the producers called him regarding negotiations with Kareena for Veere Di Wedding. He shared that the makers told him that the actress was demanding more money than the hero but he approved it saying, 'Give Bebo whatever she demands'.

The actor also revealed that on several occasions he had been paid lesser than his female co-star and he has no reservations about it.
