Subuhii Joshii, Namita Lal and Nivedita Basu share their thoughts on BCCI's decision of equal pay for both men and women cricketers!

Subuhii Joshii 

I think it’s a great move. It's a new era of equality and the best part is BCCI is just the third board to take this step. Of Course it gives a ray of hope to see change in our industry too and I hope it happens soon. We just talk about equality but in reality there still is a lot of partiality. But after this huge step by BCCI, I sincerely hope our industry implies this too. When I started working we used to get our first cheque after 90 days of the telecast of the show. It has become way better now. It’s still not completely fair, but so much better than before. I think payments should be done on a monthly basis, and not after 2-3 months.

Proud moment for sport for BCCI to take equal pay decision . There is a lot of pressure now on producers to get equal compensation from leading actors of both genders especially in Hollywood and Europe. With films such as gangubai and tv shows such as Anupama leading the revenue collections in 2022 there will be financial and business justification too and accelerate the cause tremendously

Nivedita Basu

It's a huge step and a brilliant decision, but I think the pay scale in the television industry is just the opposite. Female actresses get paid more than the male actors which may not be true for film actors
