Since then, she has been a part of many films, and has portrayed varied roles in those films. She has a career span of over 25 years, during which she won numerous awards for her roles.

In another tweet, she called out the fact that the male actors who play all sorts of roles, aren’t called ‘supporting actors’ but are instead called ‘versatile’.
