The Spangram will be highlighted in yellow once you've located it. Take advantage of hints: Pay attention to off-topic words for clues. For every three non-theme words you uncover, letters will be highlighted to give you a hint toward finding a theme word, without directly revealing it.

Nushrratt Bharuccha on sexism in Bollywood: Hero's vanity van nicer than mine
Actor Nushrratt Bharuccha recently shared her experiences of sexism and inequality in Bollywood. During a recent interview, Bharuccha recounted occasions where she had to request the use of a male co-star's vanity van because it was better and nicer than an interview with Youtuber Nayandeep Rakshit, the 40-year-old elaborated, "There have been times when I went around asking, 'Can I use the hero's vanity van for 5 minutes? He's not here anyway. Can I use the washrooms?' Because they are nicer than mine. However, I won't complain or bicker at that time. I tell myself that I will get myself to that point where I get these things by default."advertisementShe also recalled a time when she was put in economy class on an international flight while male leads enjoyed a comfortable journey in business class. Despite being invited to join friends in business class, she chose to remain in her assigned seat. She remembered being motivated by the belief that she would one day be booked into a business class on merit. This aspiration was eventually realised. The 'Chhorii 2' actor further shed light on the ongoing struggle for gender equality in Bollywood. She pointed out, "As soon as a guy delivers a hit, no matter if he is an insider or an outsider, he will get five new options immediately. But women have to keep struggling. I have been saying this since the time of 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama'.""I am not saying that she has to become an overnight sensation or anything. What does an actor want once their movie is a hit? To get a few options for potential future projects from which they can choose. That's it. They just need opportunities. We don't get as many (options) as heroes do," Bharuccha the professional front, Bharuccha recently featured in the horror film 'Chhorii 2'. Directed by Vishal Furia, the film also featured Soha Ali Khan and Gashmeer Mahajani. It is available for streaming on Netflix.- EndsMust Watch IN THIS STORY#Nushrratt Bharuccha
