Fatima Sana Shaikh slams lack of comic roles for women

Fatima Sana Shaikh, starring in new series Hunkkaar, criticised the dearth of well-written female comedy roles in Bollywood. She called slapstick "always sexist" and praised Juhi Chawla and Vidya Balan's comic timing. Co-star Zoya Hussain said she'd welcome comedy roles if the script sparks emotional curiosity.
