Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor Khan who has been experimenting on screen with varied roles recently spoke about the changing role of women in cinema at the ABP Ideas of India Summit 3.0. She credited leading female actors like Kangana Ranaut, Vidya Balan, and Deepika Padukone for having made significant contributions to the improvement of women`s roles in cinema and remuneration in the Hindi film business.

Kareena Kapoor Khan, who has been a part of the film industry for over two decades spoke about how female actors have altered things in the movie industry. "A lot of strong women have done a lot of strong parts in films. They have done films that have been loved by the audiences, by the masses, by the film people, by critics, and at the box office. So, whether it`s leading actresses like Kangana (Ranaut), Vidya (Balan), Deepika (Padukone) or myself, we`ve always tried to stand for roles that have risen above just being there in the film. So, all has changed a lot of dynamics on many levels, like demanding a certain role, a certain fee, or position," the 43-year-old actor said.
