Bollywood actress Diya Mirza, who made her cinematic debut with 'Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein' in 2001, feels that talent is not valued in the Indian film industry.
"There is no value of talent in Bollywood. One gets a job due to profiling. To hit or being flop of films is the base of your report card. And, when it's the base for the industry, then it's quite impossible to reach the goal," she said recently on the J C Show.
The 34-year-old actress, while speaking about her upcoming Indo-Iranian movie 'Salaam Mumbai,' told Mr. Jagdish Chandra, Head (News) ETV that, "This is for the first time that India and Iran are jointly making a film."
She even gushed about the love and appreciation she received from the people of Iran during the shooting of this film.
