2018, the #Metoo movement started in Bollywood, where big names from the
industry were called out by women for inappropriate behaviour and sexual
misconduct. One and a half year later, actress Chitrangada Singh revealed not
so shockingly (shockingly), in an interview, that Casting Couch is a reality in
Bollywood. She claims to have seen this wretched thing right from her modelling
days and stated in the interview that there are people like this
everywhere.
Describing
her personal experience, she revealed that casting couch has happened to her.
However, she also says that Bollywood is an industry where no one forces you to
do it, choices are provided to everyone, giving space and respect for the
choices one makes. It does truly feel bad when one loses the opportunity, but well,
it is, after all, a choice you made.

Yeh
Saali Zindagi star Chitrangada said she wouldn't judge anyone who does casting
couch, provided she feels comfortable with it. Singh says it felt bad as she
has lost out on projects because of not succumbing to it. Due to the COVID-19
pandemic, Chitrangada, like many others, is self-quarantined at home, amidst
the lockdown.
Chitrangada
has started working out regularly during the lockdown as earlier she used to
skip it. Before the lockdown, she used to work out only twice or thrice a week,
but now she does stretching, yoga & other exercises daily.

Chitrangada
will be next seen in the Abhishek Bachchan starrer, 'Bob Biswas'.
