Kalpana Iyer says she’s being ghosted after requesting for work: ‘At 70, I expect respect’

Renowned actress Kalpana Iyer expressed her frustration on Instagram, stating she has been ghosted after requesting acting work. At 70, she emphasized the importance of being treated with decency and respect. The veteran performer gained fame at age 12 for her role in Dev Anand's Lootmaar and became a household name through the iconic song Rambha Ho.

Kalpana has tried to remain professional, often ignoring issues that upset her, but being ignored has deeply affected her. She hopes for fair consideration for roles, even if it means taking on smaller parts. Kalpana, who has resided in Dubai for 27 years, expressed her desire for open communication with those in the industry rather than being treated like a "DIVA."
