Kalki Koechlin who was announced as Oriflame Ambassador on Tuesday. During media interaction at the event she said, she has always been told I am an unconventional actress.
Brand Ambassador of OriFlame:
- Kalki is known as a strong independent woman and as many young admirers when asked what beauty means to her,
- and what advice would she have for all her admirers, Kalki said, “Beauty is such a vast thing and we tend to look at it from a very commercial angle.
- Uniqueness is another form of beauty and what you stand out in, makes you beautiful.
- I have always been told I am an unconventional actress and I have embraced it because it is who I am.
- That’s actually why I am sitting here today as the Oriflame Ambassador.
- There is a place for beauty which is not necessarily the exterior appearance and you have to own your personality.”
- When asked Kalki about what beautiful change would she like to bring in Bollywood, she said,
- “I think it has actually already started happening, writing should have a lot more priority.
- Because content is king especially with the content that web has started bringing.
- We should honor our writers and give them a lot of importance because good writers are what make good movies.”
Women today need Confidence:
- Kalki was asked what is the essential thing that woman needs today to be like her, she said,
- “The most essential thing is confidence that we need to have. We are living in a society now where we have education, we have jobs for women but we still lack confidence.
- I know a lot of women who feel the pressure to get married, and once they
- get married they feel they should stop working for a while.
- This is all because there are certain laws and things that are patriarchal
- like for example we have maternal leave but not paternal leave.
- I feel that this domestic responsibility needs to be shared more at home in order for it to be shared in the office environment too.
- You can’t have women being empowered in office but not at home. “
- The actress also spoke about her future projects she said,
- “I have two films releasing very soon, one is ‘Jia Aur Jia’ with Richa Chadda which is about two girls’ road-tripping through Sweden.
- The second is an independent film directed by Rakhee Sandilya, which is titled ‘Rainbow’ and will release in November.”
- Kalki was last seen as a director and an actress in ‘A Death in the Gunj’ and as an actress in ‘Mantra’ in 2016.
