Recalling one such unsettling moment, Priyanka revealed that at just 19 years old, while discussing wardrobe details with a director, he insisted that her outfit should be so short that her underwear would be visible.

He emphasized that it needed to be revealing enough for people sitting in the front to clearly see it.

Disgusted by his comments, which were worse because they were passed in Hindi, Priyanka confided in her mom and shared how disgusted the remark made her feel.

A career-defining moment in her life, Priyanka decided to walk away from the project. Priyanka shared with her mom that she couldn’t look the director in the face. His perception of her was so small, it wouldn’t give her any space to grow.

The actress emphasized the importance of self-respect and autonomy, stating that it will be her choice what she wants to be perceived as.

Sadly, many actors continue to face similar situations, but only a few find the strength to take a stand and walk away.
