“Salman is an amazing person but he is also a busy man. I cannot be a monkey on his back and bother him for little things”, Zareen stated, “Salman is a friend and just a phone call away but I’m not pestering him. And that undermines the struggle, the hard work that I’ve done”.
The ‘1921’ lead expressed her annoyance over people for discrediting her survival and hard work in Bollywood, “I’m thankful to Salman because I would’ve never entered the industry if it was not for me. He gave me an entrance to the industry. But my struggle started after I became a part of the industry because then I knew nothing. A lot of people to date think that all the work I do is through him and that’s not true”.

The actor further addressed the ‘rat-race’ in the industry, “I’ve always been very content in my own space. So, I have never been in any race. But I do think I’m quite replaceable, right now. Unless you are an A-lister, people won’t wait for you”.
