Obviously stemmed from other topic but deserves it's own. Thinking of what Kareena was saying, I disagree with her the only actress working full fledged, but she's definitely one of the FEW.
How many actresses can you think of that continued acting at the same pace and full fledged careers.
And this doesnt mean actress that come back after 5 years, act in 1 film with friends, and then disappear for another 4 years. That's not working full time, that's working part time.

Discuss why there's such a dearth of married actresses, but most actors are married.

Societal pressures? Self imposed exiles by the women themselves after marriage? Children? In Laws that possibly disapprove?

What do you think?

Actresses that continued with Full Fledged Careers:

Kareena, Vidya

Actresses that took maternity break and are coming back full time:
Aishwarya (break started with Aradhya and sorta ended when she felt she could be taken care of well enough until Mom is at work)

Actresses that left post marriage:
Kajol (I don't count 1 film every few years as a career, its more dependent on her mood, like a hobby)
Madhuri (same goes for her)
Juhi Chawla
Rani Mukherjee
Karisma

Why do you think that happens? What prompts that? And are other actresses post marriage better or do Vidya and Bebo have the most frequent pace out of the girls?

Both of them have had 1 film released per year. Which is the same as the males.

Kareena recently gave 2 hits (to her own credit, I don't coutn Sigham and Bajrangi Bhaijaan, only Ki and Ka and Udta Punjab).
Vidya will be coming out with Kahaani 2 soon.

I'm willing ot overlook that as extended maternity leave. I think she genuinely took that break post her kid and waited until Aradhya is old enough for to fend under someone else's care and doesnt need her mom 24/7.

Her own MIL is a great example... Although she is from a much older generation.

She references Sharmila quite a bit. It's true that Saif used to be on the sets as a kid when Sharmila was doing some of her best work
