In an interview with Zoom, the Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani actress recalls, “I have been into incidences where I have been in uncomfortable situations. One such incidence wasn’t in this industry. It was at Cannes. I was not even an actor, I was a student in London at that time and I had gone to Cannes as a promo girl for Nokia phones. There was an Indian producer, I’m not going to say the name. He knew somebody who knew my mother and they put me in touch with him saying, ‘Meet him, he is a big guy.’ So, I met him and went to see his screening at Cannes. He then asked me out for dinner in London, and when I asked him about any leads in work at that point, he made it very clear that I have to be with him in order for that to happen. I, obviously, said no, thank you, and that was the end of that.”
