Were limits crossed with Priya Bapat on the film set? How did a kissing scene become a problem for the actress? How did the co-actor constantly cross his limits and harass the actress? Why did the actress’s husband Umesh Kamat have to intervene? Priya Bapat revealed the scariest truth of her career, which is now in discussion on social media.
Actress Priya Bapat has shared a very uncomfortable and disturbing experience from the early days of her career, which has once again sparked a debate about professional boundaries in the film industry. In an interview, she described how the discomfort that started with a kissing scene during a film gradually turned into inappropriate behavior on the set. She also said that a co-actor did not respect her personal space during and after the shooting. This whole experience affected him mentally a lot and kept him in an uncomfortable state for a long time.
Priya Bapat’s bad experience at the beginning of her career
39 year old Priya Bapat told in a conversation with Filmfare that this was one of her first films, when she was just understanding the industry. During the script reading itself, she felt uneasy about a kissing scene, but she was assured that it was part of the story. According to Priya, “It did not seem necessary to me, but I was told that it is necessary for the story.” He said that initially he had doubts about this scene, but due to pressure from the director, he shot it.
Co-actor crossed limits on film sets
Priya Bapat made the most shocking revelation that when she was shooting the song with her co-actor, she started increasing physical intimacy in the name of improvisation. “He kept kissing me again and again and I couldn’t stand up for myself at that time because I didn’t know how to handle it,” says Priya.
Co-actor kept following me even after the shooting
Priya further told that even after the shooting was over, the co-actor kept messaging her continuously. Kept talking about swimming lessons, meeting for dinner and breakfast. Unfortunately, both of them were staying in the same hotel, which made the situation worse.
Husband Umesh Kamat handled the whole situation
When the situation worsened, Priya Bapat called her husband Umesh Kamat. After this Umesh immediately reached Bhopal and stayed with him on the set for three days. According to Priya, this was the most uncomfortable experience of her career and after that nothing like it ever happened again. Talking about the work front, Priya is soon going to make a comeback in the psychological genre with the new project Dalimb: The Myth. In this film directed by Priya Aven, actors like Jeetendra Kumar, Kshitij Date and Kavin Dave will also be seen along with Priya Bapat. The release date of the film has not been announced yet.
