In one of the inteviews, Tanushree Dutta made some serious claims against filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri. Finally, The Kashmir Files director has addressed the accusations.
Famously, in an interview with Faridoon Shahryar, veteran Bollywood actress Tanushree Dutta recalled the director’s alleged behavior. She said, “One day, when I arrived on set five minutes late, he yelled at me and called me unprofessional. Sometimes, I would come to the set when the lights weren’t even on and nothing was prepared, meaning the setup was completely unready. But on that particular day, I was exactly five minutes late, and he was on set just to see whether I had arrived or not. Artists are supposed to rest in the van when they’re not shooting, especially if you’ve given me clothes like these—short clothes and so on. Even when I sat in a robe, he would say, ‘No, there’s a shot coming up, so take it off.’ He would make me sit in those short clothes in front of the entire unit.”
While the instance of the statement given by Tanushree Dutta was long ago now, director Vivek Agnihotri decided to clap back at the actress’ claims. He said, “Yeh film industry ki aisi baat hai ki actors and actresses par bahut pressure hota hai to be successful. Jab aap successful nahi hote, toh aap kahi baar frustrate ho jaate hai ki you don’t know what state of mind you are in.” (This is the nature of the film industry; actors and actresses are under a lot of pressure to be successful. When you aren’t successful, you often get frustrated to the point where you don’t know what state of mind you’re in.) “You can’t stay in that sanity. You can’t be rational. When such things happen with me, I prefer to forgive. People keep talking about you, but I don’t take them seriously. I don’t like to get engaged in such issues and let them do whatever they want to do.”
