She should be studying and not being a maid!
Some of these stars who claim to be charitable and support women's empowerment, such big-big words, and then they employ juvenile maids?
I really want to know who this actress is.
I am not sure if it's legal or illegal partly because I have seen it far too often that's why I edited my post later.
The mother usually works too. Yes, the girl should be studying, but in India some people are really, really, really poor. The whole family works. They don't even earn a lot. Some of them hardly earn $16 or $17/month sometimes even less than that and the cost of living is rising too.
I am not sure how much charity goes towards women's education. Even if a girl wants to study I think they have free education in villages until Grade 12 but after that in college and university you have to pay. Most of them can't afford that.
In India the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer if that makes sense. We argue on this forum about 100 crores or 200 crores - I am not saying that's necessary wrong, but it's the stars that earn money sometimes these arguments don't make sense when there are bigger issues around.
