Bollywood actress Isha Koppikar is back onscreen with her web series Dhahanam and the fans are loving her.
However, in a recent interview, the actress revealed her casting couch incident.
The actress opened up about the incident and said that she was ‘completely broken and devastated‘.
As per reports, the actress recalled, “I was completely broken and disillusioned. Because l thought that what matters is how you look and act but what actually matters is that you are in the hero’s good books and good books meant this. I feel all of us have our threshold and priority. For me, my life is bigger than my work. At the end of the day, it is my conscience, I need to look at the mirror and feel good about it. There may be people who beg to differ and would get a good night’s sleep after doing all this.”
Isha had opened up about the incident before as well. In an earlier interview with Bombay Times, she had revealed, “In mid-2000, I was called by a renowned producer who said that you have to be in the good books of the hero. I didn’t know what he meant. So, I called up the hero, who asked me to meet him alone. At that point, he was being accused of infidelity, so he asked me to visit him minus my staff. I called the producer and told him that I am here due to my talent and looks and if that can get me good work, then it’s good enough. I was thrown out of the film.”
However, Isha is back on the screen after a long time. Have you seen Dhahanam yet?
