Pavitra Rishta, Baarish & Ludo actress Asha Negi breaks silence on her casting couch experience: 'He was almost trying to brainwash me that...'

Asha Negi, who garnered popularity with Pavitra Rishta, featured in Baarish opposite followed by Anurag Basu’s directorial Ludo. In a recent conversation, the actress spoke about how a coordinator tried to convince her that she needs to compromise to get work in the industry. “Back then, there were coordinators.

This was some coordinator during that time, some random guy. I ended up meeting. I’m glad that we met and he started talking about television mein ye woh, and I was in my early 20s.

He was almost trying to brainwash me that this is what happens and this is how you will grow. He told me, jitne bhi bade TV actors hai, all have done it," Negi said while sharing about her casting couching experience to Hauterfly. “I told him, ‘If this happens, then I’m not interested’.

.. My friend just said, ‘All this happens; it’s normal.

’ He wasn’t shocked at all,” she added. Friend, family or spouse? Who is to be blamed for this cold-blooded murder? 🔪 #HoneymoonPhotographer now streaming, exclusively on JioCinema Premium. @AshaNegi7 #KarmanyaAhuja @SceneSorted @ApekshaPorwal #RajeevSiddhartha @SalathiaSahil @JasonThamIndia @Sushmitha_S .
