Emma Thompson says she was always paid less than her male colleagues. The 59-year-old actor-writer said women are still treated as “second-class citizens”. She also advocated to publish salaries to reveal the gender pay gap. “I was always paid less than my male counterparts. Publishing figures is the first step. “It’s a forensic way of looking at how women are second-class citizens, and I appreciate that because it’s not emotional.

Bobby Deol was the ‘it boy’ of the 90s but will his comeback still hold that charm?

With his curly hair, bobbling head and round sunglasses, we still think of “ Duniya Haseeno Ka Mela ” when we think of Bobby Deol.
