In a recent interview, Bollywood actor Vidya Balan, who is known to make bold statements, said that women became hotter and naughtier after 40. She claimed that women care less as they grow older and that that’s when life becomes joyous.

The Dirty Picture star apparently celebrated her 40th birthday on New Years’ Day and talked about her experience of turning 40 recently. “Yeah, naughtier and hotter too after 40. Generally, we’re taught to be a little coy and not enjoy sex. But the reason they say women get better with age is because you care less and less, it’s more about you. It’s joyous. When you don’t care, you have the most amount of fun. I’m not carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders anymore. In my 20s, it was about wanting to live my dream. The 30s was about knowing myself and the 40s is about loving my life,” she stated.

Vidya Balan, who was last seen in the movie ‘Tumhari Sulu’ that fetched her the Filmfare Best Actress Award, has been roped in to play Ajith’s pair in #Thala59, the Tamil remake of the movie Pink.
