Amid the Jusitce Hema Committee Report startling everyone with its findings, and women of the Malayalam cinema sharing their sexual misconduct ordeals, naming those who wronged them, resulting in the registering of FIRs, popular actress Kamya Panjabi calls television the safest place in the entertainment industry sans any casting couch.
Speaking to News18 Showsha, Kamya Panjabi said, "Television has been very clean. I don’t know what used to happen in the past, but now it is very clean. There is no such filth here. People aren’t forced or blackmailed here. There is no casting couch. If you fit a role, you have talent; you will be selected for the show. I feel television is the safest place in the entertainment industry. Sexual abuse does not happen here. Whatever happens, because there is mutual consent. Nobody is telling anyone to sleep with them in the promise of a role.”
