Sushmita Sen is among the A-listers in Bollywood. From winning the Miss Universe pageant in 1994 to exploring various genres in movies and web series Sush has never failed to impress us. Apart from her acting skills and timeless beauty, it is also her work ethic that we admire the most. However, this was not the scene in her early years as she wanted to stick to her fixed working hours, but well-known actors and directors felt otherwise and found her to be fussy.
Sush has been in the industry for decades now and has worked with celebrated actors and directors in her career. She was last seen portraying Transgender activist Shreegauri Sawant in her latest web series Taali.
Throughout her career, Sushmita Sen has broken stereotypes and never shied away from speaking her heart out. Even during her early years, she always tried to stick to her working schedule but realised shift timings were not discussed with actresses when a movie starred one of the Khans or a leading actor. In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, she said, “When I joined the industry, if you have a film with one of the Khans or one of the major A-list actors, you don’t talk about shift time and number of days and all. You just bend backwards and do the film. But I started asking for eight hours, ten hours with makeup and hair specifically. I will come on time and will leave on time. It’s a system I follow even today. I will never be late, but then I will leave on time.”
