Ujda Chaman actor Maanvi Gagroo says ‘ran out of audition that required me to do attempt-to-rape scene in a sleazy office’

Ujda Chaman actor Maanvi Gagroo talks about a bitter experience while auditioning for a role. She claims she was asked to do a rape scene ‘in a sleazy office with just two men’.

Actor Maanvi Gagroo, who was recently seen in Ujda Chaman, has opened up on her bitter experience during one of the auditions she gave while trying to get work in showbiz. Without naming the people involved, Maanvi has said she was asked to do a rape scene for an audition in a “sleazy office”.

Maanvi Gagroo was seen in Ujda Chaman and is now working on Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhaan.

Speaking with Spotboye in an interview, Maanvi said, “I remember I had ran out of an audition that required me to do an attempt-to-rape scene in a sleazy office with just 2 men seated next in the room. The room, which they called as their office, also had a bed.”

Maanvi was seen as the female lead in Sunny Singh-starrer Ujda Chaman where she essayed the role off a plus-sized woman who finds love with a bald man. While the film focuses on the social stigma of the balding man, it also gives us a glimpse of struggles that women face due to their size in our society.

Maanvi began her career with the television show Dhoom Machaao Dhoom in 2007. Maanvi has worked in web series Tripling and Four More Shots Please! and is now working on Ayushmann Khurrana-starrer Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhaan.
