Zeenat talks about being typecast in commercial films
Zeenat Aman is known for sharing insightful reflections on her Instagram, often delving into her career, films, and life experiences. Recently, she posted a vintage interview clip from the 1980s with BBC Asian Network, discussing her journey in Hindi cinema. Zeenat candidly revealed her initial struggle with being typecast in glamorous roles, expressing a desire for more substantial characters. In the minute-long excerpt, Zeenat lamented the limited opportunities for female actors in mainstream Bollywood, emphasizing how easy it is to get pigeonholed into specific roles.

Reflecting on the interview, Zeenat humorously acknowledged how she viewed herself as mature back then, contrasting it with her current perspective on her youthful naivety. She encouraged her followers to cherish both the highs and lows in life, as shown through her evolving career and personal journey.
