Let us tell you that actress Shilpa Shinde recalled an incident from the early days of her career in the latest interview and told how she was 'very innocent' at that time and hence, she agreed to do this scene. She said, "This is from my struggling days around 1998-99. I cannot take names, but he told me, 'You wear these clothes and do this scene'. I did not wear those clothes. In the scene, he told me that he is my boss, and I have to seduce him. I was very innocent then, so I did the scene. The person tried to force himself on me. I got very scared. I pushed him and ran away. The security staff realized what had happened and they asked me to leave immediately. They thought I would create a ruckus and call for help".

Along with this, Shilpa Shinde also recalled meeting the same producer many years later, when she refused to reveal his name. She said, "He was from the Hindi film industry. I agreed to do the scene because he was also an actor. I am not lying, but I cannot reveal his name. His children are probably a little younger than me. If I reveal his name, they will also feel bad. After a few years, I met him again. He talked to me very lovingly. He did not recognize me and even offered me a role in a film. I refused. He still does not remember me".
