Asha broke the silence
Recalling her casting couch experience, Asha said, “At that time, there were coordinators. It was some coordinator at that time, some random person. My meeting is over. I’m glad we met and he started talking about this and that in television, and I was in my 20s. He was almost trying to brainwash me that this is just the way it is and this is how you grow. He told me, all the big TV actors have done this.
Here, she said that she did not directly tell him anything about compromising herself, but she had sensed his intentions. He realized that if things continued like this, he was no longer interested in a career.
Although she acted confidently, she felt intimidated. The Pavitra Rishta actor recalled calling one of his friends who was not surprised and shrugged it off as a normal incident.
“I told him, ‘If it happens, I’m not interested’… My friend just said, ‘It all happens; This is normal. He wasn’t surprised at all,” he added.
