She continued, “There was a person, who was doing casting in Mumbai. I was doing modeling assignments in Pune and hence was a bit known. I went to Ranchi as he said he is casting for some role. We were doing script reading in a room and he was trying to touch me inappropriately.” 

While sharing about her escape from the room, she said, “I couldn’t figure out what was happening. I just remember pushing him, opening the door, and run away. I couldn’t share this with anyone for a few days. It was a love scene reading script. It was very bad.” 

She also told that she was addressed as ‘she-male’ because of her appearance as she has learned martial arts and is a fitness enthusiast. She shared an incident related to this as well. She told, “I sent my portfolio to several casting agencies, and out of them was looking for ‘beautiful lead.’ Reply from the casting agent was terrible, he replied, “I have written beautiful here and you are not beautiful.”
