Screenwriter Bee Gul who has written dramas like
‘Talkhiyaan’, ‘Raqeeb Se’, and ‘Dar Si Jati Hai Sila’ is well known for her skill as a writer.
Gul was a guest on Rafay Mehmood’s podcast when she discussed the ‘exploitation’ that goes on behind the scenes.
She said that, “women entering the industry often anticipate offers of exploitation. This reality cannot be ignored.

Many aspiring actresses accept these offers, recognizing their potential, and often feel they have no other means to secure opportunities within the industry’s accepted standards if they don’t comply with requests from producers or directors.”
“A friend’s experience, who faced difficulty landing lead roles because she refused to engage in such practices,” Gul claimed.
