Actor Madalsa Sharma has opened up about a shocking incident of casting couch in Mumbai. The actor told in a conversation with The Male Feminist podcast that a director called her for a meeting regarding a film, and asked her to wear a bikini in front of him.
Madalsa handled the situation promptly and stood her ground. She shared that a very renowned filmmaker had called her for a meeting when she was 19 years old and asked her if she was comfortable wearing a bikini. Madalsa replied that she was an actor by profession and would wear a bikini if required for a scene, but not in front of the director.
She then walked out of the situation and did not bother to register what the director thought. After a few days, she read a report of the same casting and found out that the director and the actress for that part were dating.
Madalsa is best known for her portrayal of Kavya in the hit TV show Anupamaa. Her character had grey shades in the family drama series, starring Rupali Ganguly.
