TV actor Kamya Punjabi
Indian TV actor Kamya Punjabi stirred up the hornet’s nest as she made some statements about the Hindi TV industry. She called the Hindi TV industry a safe space for actresses. In an interview she said that the TV industry is currently the “safest” place for women.
With several TV shows to her credit and a long illustrious career, Kamya Punjabi reflected on the work culture in Hindi television and told News 18, “Television has been very clean. I don’t know what used to happen in the past but now it is very clean. There is no such filth here. People aren’t forced or blackmailed here. There is no casting couch. If you fit a role, you have talent, you will be selected for the show.”

She added, “Sexual abuse does not happen here. Whatever happens, because there is mutual consent. Nobody is telling anyone to sleep with them in the promise of a role.”
She also pointed out, “Some actors are womanisers but if you stop it, if you make it very clear, such things do not happen. Nobody is being forced to do this.”
She added that she can’t vouch for “films or OTT but it does not happen in TV.”
