Priyanka Chopra, who stars in new film 'Mary Kom', has said that female-oriented roles are still not a popular concept in Bollywood.
Priyanka's new film is a biopic based on a five-time world boxing champion and Olympic medallist.
Priyanka said: "Mary Kom is a film obviously about Mary Kom. First and the foremost, female-centric roles are not welcomed in Bollywood. Things will change for women in Hindi film industry the day when we go and watch a movie after seeing its trailer, without having any gender bias in our minds.”
'Mary Kom' is set for release in September.
