Mita Vashisht’s revelation on casting couch

In a conversation with Bollywood Hungama, Mita Vashisht opened up about casting couch. She said, “There was a director from the South Industry. he/she met me in Chennai and offered me the lead role in a film. I was very happy. However, that director had worked with an actress like Smita Patil. he/she put a condition while giving me the role.”

The director made a cheap demand from Mita Vashisht

Mita Vashisht further said, ‘The director had put a condition that I stay with him/her for two months. Whereas he/she was an award winning director. When I heard his/her condition, I immediately said what nonsense is this. Keep your role with you and get out of here. I did not even think once that the lead role is slipping away from my hands.’ The actress further said that at that time she did not know English very well. So she thought that the director was asking her to stay in Chennai for two months to correct it. But later he/she himself said that it is not so, and said ‘You have to stay with me.’ On hearing this, the actress left the role.
