In her recent podcast Kisine Bataya Nahi, Rubina invited her friend, actor Sharad Kelkar, when the duo got talking about the practice of typecasting in the industry. Upon being complimented over her post-pregnancy transformation and dedication to work, Rubina exclaimed that she has started receiving “bhabhi" roles.
The actress began by addressing the existing stigma, stating, “When female actors welcome kids, they are being categorised in a certain way," and questioned why the same scrutiny doesn’t apply to male actors. In response, Kelkar pointed out that male actors generally escape such stigma, while female actresses become the focus of public scrutiny.
He observed that, unlike in the past when fitness wasn’t as emphasised, many actresses now prioritise their physical appearance and well-being. Sharad Kelkar mentioned that actresses like Kareena Kapoor and Rubina herself have returned to their pre-pregnancy shapes after childbirth.
To this, Rubina added, “I have started receiving bhabhi-type roles," further questioning if the same changes happen with the male actors after becoming parents.
After announcing their pregnancy in September of the previous year, Rubina Dilaik and Abhinav Shukla welcomed twin baby girls, Edhaa and Jeeva, in November 2023. A month later, they shared their daughters’ names along with some heartwarming photos. On Instagram, they expressed their joy, writing, “Excited and extremely happy to share that our daughters, Jeeva and Edhaa are one month old Today …. Universe blessed us on the auspicious day of Gurpurab!
