Mouni Roy alleges harassment at event in Haryana

While sharing her disappointment, the actress took to her Instagram story and said, “Had an event at Karnal last and I am disgusted at the behaviour of the guests specially two uncles who are well aged to be grandparents. As the event started and walked on the stage uncles and family members (all men) put their hands on my waist to click pictures. Didn’t like it when I said, ‘Sir pls remove your hand.’ On stage is even a better story. Two uncles stood right infront making lewd remarks showing lewd hand gestures, name calling I realised that and first politely gestured to them don’t do it to which they started throwing roses at me.”

She continued, “When mid performance I walked towards the stage exit but immediately came back to finish my performance. They didn’t stop even after that and no family or organisers moved them from up front. If someone like me has to go through this I can only imagine what new girls starting to work and do shows must be. I am humiliated, traumatised and want the authorities to take action for this intolerable behaviour. We are artists trying to earn an honest living through our craft. Wonder what these men would do if their friends behaved the same with their daughters, sisters or any family members. Shame on you!”

“We go to these events to be part of someone’s celebration. We are their guests, and yet this is how we are treated,” she added.

Her post soon went viral on social media. Netizens share their views on the harassment allegations. A user wrote on X, “Who’s safe in this country????

Actress Mouni Roy just updated her story of harassment at marriage function in Karnal.”
