Meri Bhavya Life's Sheetal Maulik recalls casting couch experience; says ‘I was directly asked if I'm ready to compromise'
Actress Sheetal Maulik, currently winning hearts as Priya in Meri Bhavya Life, opened up in an exclusive conversation about a disturbing casting couch experience early in her career. Reflecting on the incident, she shared how naïve she was at the time and how that moment shaped her journey in the industry. 'It was quite unexpected for me,' Sheetal began. 'I was very innocent during the time I made my acting debut. I was hardly 15 or 16 years old. Back then, we were still considered kids and our parents made most decisions. Today's generation is much more aware and informed.' Recalling the shocking incident, she said, 'I was in talks for a project, and I was directly asked if I'm ready to compromise. I was so innocent that I agreed on the spot, thinking it meant they would pay me less. I came home and told my family, 'Yay! I'm selected! Just that they'll pay me less, and I agreed to it.'' However, the reality hit hard soon after. 'The next day, the producer called me to meet at night. I was like, 'Sir, now?' And he said, 'Yes, we talked about compromising, and you seemed comfortable.' I said, 'Yes, I'm okay with less money,' and he replied, 'No, we can pay you more. All you need to do is…' I cut off the call. That moment was a real shock for me.' Despite the harrowing experience, Sheetal emphasized the positives. 'Yes, the industry has a dark side, but there are good people too—professionals who respect and appreciate your talent. I was lucky to meet such people and didn't let that one experience break me. I kept going.' She further shared, 'My mom used to accompany me to auditions after that. I became more aware. I always tell newcomers—trust your talent and stay true to your path. Hard work and honesty will take you far.' In addition to Meri Bhavya Life, Sheetal has appeared in Deewaniyat, Suhaagan, Barsatein – Mausam Pyaar Ka, and Yeh Un Dinon Ki Baat Hai, slowly carving a place for herself with resilience and talent.
