Asked about her previous bad experience, the actress shared, “While I was auditioning for CAT I had dreadlocks and tattoos because I was doing another web series by a new production house. There were two people who had started a new production house. Because I was in Ragini MMS 2 (Balaji Motion Pictures and ALT Entertainment co-production) they knew me. We were three people working on this but now the web series hasn’t been released and the producers are not picking up our calls. We haven’t received half the payment and we had to beg them for the other half we received. Now both brother and sister have vanished and are nowhere to be found."
She added, “It was a very bad experience on the sets as well. I wish I could take his name because I would totally want people to know the kind of person the director was and the way he would insult and harass his actors on sets and treat them badly in front of everyone. That puts you in a bad headspace and demotivates you. Then you get better projects like CAT and you realise everyone in the industry is not the same. You just have to find the right people to work with."
Sharing how mentally taxing the whole experience was for her, she continued, “I went through so much sh*t during that project. I got Covid as well. It also took me three hours to get ready and I would even reach the sets before the spot boys. I got dreadlocks which was a painful experience. And then when you don’t get anything in return, it demotivates you. You’re working too hard and then you start having second thoughts and you start doubting your own credibility - where did I go wrong."
