Actor Ankita Lokhande rose to fame with her hit television show, 바카라Pavitra Rishta바카라. However, do you know she wanted to start her career as a film actress, but faced casting couch early in her career?
In a recent chat with Hauterrfly, the actress revealed how a film producer offered to cast her in his south Indian film only if she agreed to 바카라sleep with him.바카라 Sharing how she had met a filmmaker in a Mumbai hotel after she got a call from him, Ankita said, 바카라I had given an audition, I got a call saying, 바카라You have been selected.바카라 I was supposed to go to sign and I told them, 바카라Yes, I will come to the hotel.바카라 I even told my mother excitedly, 바카라I am going and I will get the signing amount바카라.바카라
However, when she reached the hotel, she was asked to compromise. 바카라I was just 19 at that time. At that time, it was like 바카라I want to be a heroine and that phase was on.바카라 I played smart because I did not want to hear that I had to sleep with someone. So I asked them, 바카라What kind of a compromise? Do you want me to go to a party with your producers, finances?바카라 So I played it very smart so that I don바카라t get to hear what they were supposed to say,바카라 the actor shared.
She was then told, 바카라You have to sleep with the producer.바카라 After hearing it, Ankita lashed out at the person, saying, 바카라I don바카라t think your producer needs talent, they need a girl to sleep with and I am not that one.바카라
In fact, that바카라s when she decided not to work in Bollywood, and stay happy with the TV industry. 바카라That day I realised this industry or anywhere, I cannot give anyone the right to any person who can ask me that I have to sleep with them. I felt so low about myself that how could someone say this to me? That day I decided I was not going to do films. I don바카라t want to do films. Because I don바카라t give rights to anyone, it바카라s dirty and then I decided whatever happens, I am happy with my Television industry. After that, I got this opportunity from Pavitra Rishta and I happily did that,바카라 Ankita shared.
Ankita forayed into Bollywood with Kangana Ranaut바카라s 2019 film 바카라Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi바카라. She will next be seen in 바카라Swatantra Veer Savarkar바카라, which stars Randeep Hooda.
