Parineeti Chopra is currently gearing up for the release of 'The Girl on the Train', a multi-heroine film also featuring Aditi Rao Hydari and Kirthi Kulhari. The actress in an interview, said. “This thing of women, actresses especially, not really getting along and being insecure... Actually, it is a lot industry-created and trade-created. I have had amazing experiences. 'Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl' had four girls, 'Shuddh Desi Romance' had two girls, 'Golmaal Again' had me and Tabu ma'am.”

She added, “I have worked in various places where so many women and 'heroines' were together. The discussion was always like, 'Oh, do ladkiyaan (two girls)?” I am like, “Yeah but also teen ladke (three boys). Why don't we talk about the boys?' Competition is between artists, it is not male or female.” Parineeti added that her own experiences have been the “exact opposite” of popular belief.

Directed by Ribhu Dasgupta, 'The Girl on the Train' is a remake of the 2016 Hollywood film of the same name, which is based on Paula Hawkins' bestselling novel.
