Tuesday, 13th Oct 2015, 5:48 PM IST Kangana Ranaut, who recently spoke at the Women in the World Summit in London, says that Bollywood films objectify women. The actress said that she would get a lot of bashing for it but stated, "Bollywood films do objectify women, not all of them but some of them do." When the ‘Queen’ actress was asked what should be done for Bollywood to take actresses seriously, Kangana said, "I don't thing we need anyone's approval for what we do... It's a lot more important for women to accept themselves as opposed to others' approval of them. Others' opinion will always shift, their perspective will change.” "When I started out, they dismissed me like a nobody but today I am who I am because my understanding of myself never changed. As women we shouldn't hope to get our due. We need to get up and get it ourselves," she added. She further revealed how it was difficult for her to struggle during her initial days in Bollywood as she couldn’t speak English. The actress said, "It was quite harsh. I couldn't speak a word of English. In England, people might be understanding of that, but in Bombay if you don't speak English, people would ask 'How does she expect to work in Hindi films?'"
