Suvreen Chawla on facing casting couch after marriage
In a conversation with The Male Feminist, Chawla said, “I must have experienced the casting couch multiple times,” She continued, “I will tell you a tale about Mumbai’s Veera Desai Road only. After the meeting at his office cabin, he came to see me off at the gate, and this was after I got married. And the strange thing was that we talked about this in the meeting also.”
“He asked me how it was going and what my husband did, and it was just us speaking inside his cabin because he had a big office. So, when I came to the door to say bye, he leaned towards me trying to kiss, and I had to push him back. I was startled and asked him what he was doing, and I just walked off.” Suvreen recalled.
Surprisingly, this wasn’t it. Chawla also talked about another shocking incident that occurred with her in the South film industry. She revealed, “There was a director who couldn’t speak Hindi or English, so he used a friend as an interpreter. Through this friend, he basically told me that I had to sleep with him during the shoot.”
