She said, “I was very lucky that I was a Firoz Khan girl. Khan sahab launched me in the industry and he loved me and I loved him. So, he wouldn’t let anything come close to me. The only downside of this was, that I became so comfortable and felt so protected that I did not think about what I will have to face after I leave FK Productions and go out. So yes, I have been through my share of harassment and women in India go through a lot of it, not just in the film industry. It was way before that.”

Sharing her experience, she said, “When I was in the modelling industry, for a 15-year-old girl with an army background, who thinks that everybody is a gentleman and then you go out in the world and face something like this. It takes you some time to figure out what exactly is happening with you and why do people behave like that. After I made a name for myself in the industry, I figured that I was so used to harassment and for most women, it becomes our attitude that you deal with it and move on.”
