It’s high time that talk of gender equality and pay parity is put into action. Priyanka Chopra Jonas recently addressed the issue while promoting Citadel—her upcoming international web series with the Russo Brothers. Sharing that for the first time in her career she got paid as much as her male co-star, the actor said, “I’ve been working in the entertainment industry for 22 years, and I have done about 70-plus features and two TV shows. But when I did Citadel, it was the first time in my career that I had pay parity.” Despite being the top actor in her league, her fee was far lesser in comparison to the leading man.
