Esha Deol, who recently expressed her desire to do more work in Hindi Cinema, made a candid revelation of undergoing sexual harassment during her earlier days in the film industry. Amid a major uproar which was kicked off by the Hema Committee in the Malayalam film industry with several women taking a strong stand against sexual harassment and rape in the Indian entertainment industry, Bollywood actresses too have shared their thoughts, and some have even opened up about their personal experiences. Among them was Esha who recalled an incident that happened years ago during the release of her film Dus in 2005.The Dhoom actress opened up about the incident during an interaction on the episode of Male Feminist wherein she said, “It happened in Pune during the premiere of the film Dus which had Sanjay Dutt, Suniel Shetty, Zayed Khan and Abhishek Bachchan. So, the premiere was there and we were going through the crowd. All the artists were entering one by one when I entered and there were many big and strong bouncers around me too.” “Despite that, a man from the crowd touched me inappropriately. Something happened to me and my instant reaction was that I held the man’s hand and took him out from the crowd and slapped him,” Esha Deol added.
