Disha Patani on romancing older heroes: Age is just a number

Disha Patani is currently gearing up for her forthcoming movie ‘Malang’. She will be seen in a never-seen-before avatar in the thriller. In an interview with Mumbai Mirror, Disha spoke at length about her movie and working with heroes older than her age.

When asked about the heroes are getting older and their heroines younger and the age gap between her and Salman in ‘Radhe’, Disha said, “It was a dream come true to work with Jackie Chan in Kung Fu Yoga. He was 65 then. Ditto with Salman (Khan) sir, the biggest star in our country. Age is just a number. When I’m 50, I’d want to work with an 18-year-old. After just my second film, I got to work with Salman sir in ‘Bharat’, which gave me my first commercial song, “Slow Motion”. I don’t know if I deserve this. I’m glad to get an opportunity to dance, act, do action.”

While talking about nepotism, she said that it exists in every industry. “My sister is in the army. If she has a child, they will have an edge over others if they decide to join the forces. Instead of being jealous, it’s better to work your way up, on the strength of your talent,” said Disha.

Talking about her role in ‘Malang’, she said that that it is different from what she has done before. The movie is releasing on February 7.
