Worst period of my life This has been the worst phase of my life. Even after getting the green light from the Film and Television Directors Association, I did not get any work for 6 years. I have been working in this film industry for 14 years. After my father we all brothers and sisters started working here. My mother would have been happy to see me getting back on my feet. I have gone through the worst phase of my career in the last 6 years.

'My case was a one-sided trial by the media' Notably, in the year 2018, Bollywood actresses also participated in the 'MeToo' campaign and shared their experiences.

I did not know that I would have to pay such a heavy price for my words.'

'I was outspoken, so people resented me' He continued, 'Everybody does that on YouTube now, but in the early days of my career I was doing sensational things to get headlines. When I worked on TV, my job was to entertain people. I used to offend a lot of people. When I watch some of my interviews today, I feel like I can go back with a time machine and stop that guy – say, 'Idiot, what are you talking about? Why are you so outspoken? Because, being too outspoken, I offended people. If I had understood, I would have apologized, but when work stops, you start questioning your life. I calmed down. Now I just want to work and live.
