'People should not get offended by films'

Noted actor Boman Irani best known for his performances in movies like 3 Idiots and Munna Bhai MBBS believes that people should not get “offended by movies as they are entertainment at the end of the day”.

“We must accept how we are and we must not get offended by it. Cinema is entertainment at the end of the day,” the 56-year-old actor said. Irani, was here recently to participate in the ongoing 'Everlasting Flame International Programme' that celebrates the multicultural ethos of the Parsi-Zoroastrian community.

The multifaceted actor said there was more to the stereotypical portrayal of Parsis in Hindi films, which depicted by-and-large a Parsi as a middle-aged man with six children and a car.
