Why do Bollywood actresses reveal casting couch only after achieving fame? Now Esha Gupta came forward

Every day models or girls from all over the world come to try their luck in Bollywood. But not everyone gets fame. Be it Bollywood or any other sector, girls are victims of exploitation everywhere. But only the names of Bollywood come to the fore.
According to Bollywood experts, even if a girl has a good film, song or web series, no one gets work till date without casting couch. In such a situation, everyone would have to pass through that route. Some incidents also came to light that girls did not get work even after compromising.

“In the industry, people are willing to do anything as long as they can do something. After slowly climbing the ladder and gaining name and fame, they start throwing mud at each other. They know that now nothing will happen to them. In fact, everyone knows that no one has reached the top without casting couch,” said a Bollywood expert.

Casting couch in Bollywood is an old debate now. From Radhika Apte to Swara Bhasker to Kangana Ranaut, several Bollywood celebrities have earlier opened up about their horrifying casting couch experiences, however, the atrocity continues to spread in the film industry. Recently, Esha Gupta opened up about her experience that has shocked the internet.

In one of her recent interviews with Spotboye, Esha Gupta recalled her encounter with a filmmaker who asked her for sexual favours for work. The actor said the film was in the shooting process and was half completed. “When I refused, the co-producer told the maker that he did not want to see me in the film. What am I doing on set? After this, some makers even refused to cast me in films. I had heard that these people used to say about me that if I won’t do anything then what is the point of taking me in the film?”

Gupta further shared another incident while she was shooting outdoors and two among the makers tried to trap her on the casting couch. Sharing her story, the actor said two people laid the trap of casting couch and she understood. However, she still did the film as it was a small move from their side.

She further said the person in question thought that she would fall for it during the outdoor shoot, however, she was smart and did not go to sleep alone and further called her makeup artist to sleep in her room. Gupta continued and expressed her rage against such people and said, “They think that if we need work then we can get anything done.”

Bollywood actress Esha Gupta who is known for her acting prowess and bold sartorial choices has come forward with a shocking revelation about her experience with casting couch in the film industry.

In a recent candid interview, Esha who is known for her roles in films like Jannat 2, Rustom, among several others shed light on two separate incidents where she was asked for sexual favors in exchange for professional opportunities.
