Actress Amruta Subhash, known for her work in films like Dhamaka, Wonder Women, and the series Lust Stories 2, recently spoke about the sexual harassment she faced in the film industry. She shared two incidents involving powerful men who crossed boundaries and emphasized the importance of standing up against inappropriate behaviour.
Recalling one such moment from her theatre days during an interview with Zoom, Amruta said, "There was a producer of a play. I was climbing some stairs, and maybe my top lifted slightly—I didn’t even realise. I felt something—a hand near my waist. I turned around, and it was a big producer. I just looked at him and said, ‘What did you just do? What was that?’ And he just brushed it off, saying, ‘It’s nothing,’ pretending as if nothing had happened. I said, ‘I felt it. What was that?’ Everybody was stunned because he was such a big name. He said, ‘No, no, your top just moved up,’ and I said, ‘It’s none of your business! How dare you touch me there? You can`t do that!’"
