There have often been numerous instances when Bollywood actresses were victims of misbehaviour and harassment. In a shocking turn of events, former beauty pageant winner, Sushmita Sen, went through something similar. Yes, in her recent interaction with media at an event, Sushmita revealed how she was molested by a 15-year-old boy. She also revealed how she caught him red-handed and decided to teach him a lesson. 

Sushmita said, “So many times people think we don’t encounter things like misbehaviour because we have bodyguards. Let me tell, even with 10 bodyguards around, we are dealing with a crowd of 100 men who have often managed to misbehave with us”

Elaborating further, she said, “Six months ago at an award function, a 15-year old boy misbehaved with me as he thought I wouldn’t realise because of the crowd around. But, he was wrong. I grabbed his hand from my behind and was I was shocked to see he was just 15. I held him by his neck and took him for a walk. I told him if I make a hue and cry, his life would be over. He denied having misbehaved at first but I sternly told him to acknowledge. He realised his mistake, said sorry and promised me that it will never happen again. I didn’t take action against him because I understood that the 15-year-old was not taught that such things are an offence and not entertainment.”

Well, we are glad that Sushmita decided to teach him a lesson rather than letting him go for being a minor. 

Sushmita is one such actress in the industry who proves age is just a number for her. Ironically, as we write this article today, it is the day she was crowned Miss Universe in 1994. Time indeed flies.
