In the wake of a flood of sexual molestation charges against Hollywood film producer Harvey Weinstein, women around the world are sharing their sexual harassment experiences on social media platforms with the hashtag #MeToo to spread awareness among the large section of the people.

It’s a new way of raising voice against sexual harassment – ‘Me Too’ has gained momentum on social media. Women all over Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and other social media platforms are writing ‘Me Too”. The call was not only for common people, in fact, it made big names from the entertainment fraternity to speak their hearts out.

After the rise of the #metoo campaign, we continue to witness more and more cases of women speaking up about sexual harassment, their encounters with assault and trauma and their struggles to live in a male-dominated society on a day to day basis.

Recently, one more actress has spoken up about something that is not only a common practice in the entertainment industry, in fact, many fall prey to it just for the sake of quick money. Casting couch has plagued the entertainment industry for many decades now and it continues to be the rot deep in the industry.

But, very little come out in the open to speak out and expose sexual predators in public who try to take advantage of the situation. And a similar incident has come to the light when Television actress Sulagna Chatterjee refused to remain silent when she was recently asked to ‘compromise’ for an upcoming project.

Sulagna Chatterjee took to Instagram to post a screenshot of her WhatsApp chat with someone who said the director demanded her to compromise if she wanted to be a part of the project. She shared it with a caption that read, “When such offers are so common that you are not even affected anymore!”

Though Sulagna didn’t reveal the name of the person who texted her, she wrote that such offers have become so common that they don’t even affect you anymore.

Here’s The Screenshot Sulagna Shared:

The chat is a clear indication of the fact that the agent was asking for a ‘compromise’ from her. When Chatterjee was contacted about the incident, she revealed to a website and said, “I just posted it casually and don’t want any publicity out of it. As far as the incident is considered, I had exchanged numbers with this guy for some work, but I did not remember him. He just suddenly dropped a message, and this was an advertisement opposite a Bollywood A-lister.”

She further mentioned, “Of course was my first reaction was happiness, and then he explained that the shoot will last for one day. I was thinking he would ask me to come for a look test, but he texted about ‘a compromise’. The rest is in the screenshot. He went on to continue asking if I ever did ‘compro-projects’ and I said no, and said there is no point in asking me.”

She further added, “I have never been offered anything like this by the topmost A-listers who work in the industry. All of these offers come from the middlemen who have nothing to do in life. I have never been told this by some director or producer – tum yeh Karo main tumko star Bana Dunga.”
