Exclusive: Jeetu Kamal breaks his silence on Chirodini harassment row, says co-star Ditipriya is ‘talented but very kiddish'
Actress Ditipriya Roy, known for her role in Chirodini Tumi Je Amar, has brought serious allegations against her co-star Jeetu Kamal, citing inappropriate messages and behaviour. The matter surfaced after Roy issued a public statement on Instagram, detailing incidents that left her uncomfortable and explaining why she had remained silent until now. The production house involved in the show has yet to issue a formal response. Social media post sparks speculation The issue began with a photograph shared on social media by Jeetu Kamal, which Roy claims she personally found inappropriate. She stated that the image was provided by the production team for promotional use, but one specific picture made her uneasy. She conveyed her discomfort to the team and not to Jeetu directly. Despite this, Jeetu reportedly mentioned in several interviews that the photo received negative comments and that Ditipriya was hurt by it something she denies ever discussing with him. According to Roy, this misrepresentation added to her discomfort. 'I never said anything about receiving obscene comments,' she clarified. She further noted that when she expressed her concerns about the image, the focus shifted to criticisms about her professionalism. She was told she couldn't handle things "spontaneously," and her discomfort was dismissed as an overreaction. Ditipriya details alleged messages In her statement, Roy elaborated on interactions with Jeetu that went beyond professional boundaries. She claimed that Jeetu stopped speaking to her directly and communicated only through WhatsApp. His messages, she said, included personal remarks and inappropriate jokes. Among the examples shared by Roy were instances where Jeetu asked, "Are you pregnant?" after she mentioned a doctor's appointment. She also said he sent her an AI-generated image of them kissing with a caption suggesting she forward it to her boyfriend. In another message, he reportedly asked her to keep their conversation hidden from her mother, saying, 'I'm scared of her.' While Roy initially tried to dismiss the comments as jokes, she eventually found them troubling. 'These incidents made me uncomfortable over time. Many people on the set are aware of what happened,' she stated. Roy speaks out after weeks of silence Roy, 22, explained that she stayed quiet for some time in hopes of maintaining peace at work. 'I didn't want the show to suffer,' she said, adding that her decision to finally speak out came from a refusal to tolerate disrespect. She also mentioned that other actors on set have had similar experiences with Jeetu, though she did not name them. When Indiatimes reached out to Ditipriya's manager he added 'This has been going on for weeks. We will sit with everyone from the production team to the technical crew to discuss the issue. Our aim is resolution, and we're not saying she doesn't want to work. The point is to speak up against harassment and disrespect. We might consider legal options or negotiations, but for now, we are trying to resolve it internally. She is still shooting.' নিজের ব্যক্তিগত জীবন সম্পর্কে আমি কখনোই সোশ্যাল মিডিয়াতে কোনরকম মতামত দিই না, কিন্তু এটা তো নিছক ব্যক্তিগত নয়। এটা... Indiatimes also spoke to Jeetu Kamal who added, 'I did not post anything in the first place. Later, I had to post for my protection, for my clarification and so on. I come from a respected background myself, everyone was raising their fingers towards me. I have my own parents and hence I had to give a counter and for this reason I posted on my official account to explain the scenario from my end. I did not expect this kind of work from Ditipriya as she herself is very talented and educated. I don't know for what reason she has done this. She is a child and very kiddish.' As of now these allegations show a tense standoff, where Ditipriya accuses of harassment, Jeetu refutes claims and any mediation or legal action may follow.

Ditipriya Roy Makes SHOCKING Harassment Claims Against Co-Star Jeetu Kamal: ‘Asked If I'm Pregnant'
Last Updated: Ditipriya Roy accuses co-star Jeetu Kamal of sending AI-generated kissing photos and inappropriate messages in a shocking Instagram post. News18 Bengali TV actress Ditipriya Roy has come forward with serious claims against her Chirodini Tumi Je Amar co-star Jeetu Kamal, accusing him of harassment and disturbing behaviour both on and off set. In a detailed Instagram post, she shared her side of the story and revealed a series of uncomfortable interactions that left her shaken. The Rani Rashmoni star began by addressing online chatter about her recent silence. In her words, 'Over the past few days, there has been a lot of speculation about me, and I chose to remain silent. Because I believe that 'Ignorance is bliss'." Ditipriya recalled that the issue began when Jeetu posted a behind-the-scenes picture from their show, which she personally didn't approve of. Though the photo was eventually removed, she claims Jeetu continued to speak about it publicly, sharing a version of the incident she says wasn't true. 'The truth is, I never even spoke to him about it!" she wrote. 'I had only informed the production team… I never said anything about receiving vulgar or obscene comments." Despite being upset, she says she was told things like: 'She can't handle things spontaneously. It was just a photo—why such a fuss?" She added, 'He also said, 'I have a lot of respect and affection for Ditipriya. Her dedication is on another level.' I want to believe that my co-actor truly respects and cares for me." But according to Ditipriya, it didn't stop there. She shared disturbing details of private messages allegedly sent by Jeetu, which made her deeply uncomfortable. 'From the very first month, my co-actor stopped talking to me directly and only communicated via WhatsApp," she said, adding, 'When I asked him why, he said, 'I'm scared of your mother, but I have immense respect for you'." One message in particular stood out. 'He then asked, 'Why, are you pregnant?'" she recalled, after informing him she had a doctor's appointment. In another instance, he sent her an AI-generated photo of them kissing, with a message saying, 'Good, send this to your boyfriend." She says he added, 'You'll break up with him tonight itself." She also claimed, 'On another occasion, he messaged me saying, 'I need to talk to you, make sure your mom doesn't find out. I'm scared of her'." Though she initially brushed off the comments as jokes, Ditipriya says the repeated behaviour began to seriously affect her. 'Over time they made me extremely uncomfortable. Some issues on the set also started bothering me. Almost everyone on our shooting floor knows about these events," she wrote. view comments First Published: August 06, 2025, 13:48 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Rath Yatra marks the countdown to Durga Puja: Priyanka Sarkar
Priyanka Sarkar at Ram Gopal Saha's mansion From decorating her multi-tiered rath with her father to ringing bells to earn a fair share of pocket money in exchange of prasad, to watching her son slowly outgrow the tradition, Rath Yatra isn't just a festival for actress Priyanka Sarkar, it's a feeling woven with childhood memories, family rituals, and simple joys. CT shoots with the Chirodini Tumi Je Amar and Bibaho Obhijaan actress on this special occasion, to know how the day reminds her of a personal journey through time, food, and nostalgia. Have you ever been to Puri for Rath Yatra? I've always wanted to. Puri, for us, is more than just a place. It's an emotion. I've thought of going to Puri during Rath Yatra, but never ended doing so, mainly because it's overcrowded during this time of the year. They say Jagannath pulls you Himself... It's true! He really does. The first time I visited the Jagannath Temple in Puri, I was barely one and a half years old, so I have no memory of it. After that, I've gone to Puri several times for shoots, but not once did I get the opportunity to actually get a darshan of Jagannath. Then, just a few months ago, I went on a road trip to Mandarmani with my parents and Shohoj. The Jagannath Dham in Digha had not opened doors yet. Baba suddenly said, 'Let's just go on a road trip to Puri, it's just a few hours away. ' So off we went, totally unplanned. When we reached, we got a hassle-free darshan . The weather was perfect, and surprisingly, it wasn't even much crowded. That's exactly what people mean when they say 'He pulls you Himself – He orchestrates the entire plan'. Rath er mela holds a special place in my heart. It's not just about papad or khaja, the entire fair is a must-visit Priyanka Sarkar Do you have any special plans for Rath Yatra this year? We don't conduct a grand puja at home as such – it's more of a daily spiritual routine, and the same will happen this year. Shohoj, my son, used to pull the chariot with an idol of Jagannath, one gifted to him by my mother till last year, but I am not sure if he will do it this year since he thinks he's outgrown it, and this activity is meant for kids. Today you're shooting inside Ramgopal Saha's mansion in Bowbazar, they also host a grand Durga Puja that is over a century-old. Would you like to return here during Pujo? Shooting in the mansion feels truly special. The house perfectly captures everything I love about north Kolkata. Every house in this area carries a distinct charm. This shoot feels special to me since Rath Yatra also marks the countdown to Durga Puja. On this day, you see Khuti pujo happening in so many places. I would love to return to the mansion during Pujo. With many friends hosting bonedi barir pujos, I make it a point to visit each one at least once every year. There's something so beautiful and intimate about these centuries-old pujos. It is more of a personal tradition now to have Ashtami bhog at one place and Nabami lunch at another. Priyanka decorating a Rath Earliest Rath Yatra memories 'The earliest memory I have of Rath Yatra is also the most exciting,' says Priyanka, adding, 'I'd rush home from school to decorate the rath.' She would use everything from flowers to marble paper to decorate it and collect material for weeks in advance. 'Baba would take out the rath and clean it the day before.' That time of year also meant a fun little income. 'We'd take the rath out, ring a bell, hand out prasad, and people would give us ₹2 or ₹5. It was such fun!' Her maternal uncle's house was nearby, so the rath would be taken there on the festival day and brought back on Ulta Rath. 'There was always a feast waiting for us, and a more pocket money too,' she laughs. Decorating the rath, making sure the idols stayed in place, and upgrading from ek tala to teen tala rath made me feel so special as a kid Priyanka Sarkar 'Rath er mela holds a special place in my heart' Rath er mela holds a special place in Priyanka's heart for more reasons than one. 'I love street food, so for me, it's not just about papad or khaja – the entire fair is a must-visit,' she says. In fact, she even went to a mela last year. She adds, 'From ghugni to kulfi, there's so much to enjoy. The whole experience is something I look forward to every year.'

Title track of Batashey Gungun reimagines a classic to mirror dark romance and obsession
Batashey Gungun, a Bengali series, has captivated audiences with its haunting reimagining of the classic title track, setting the stage for a narrative steeped in psychological unrest. Directed by Arijeet Toton Chakrabarty, the series explores the entangled lives of Pallabi, Arindam, and Mithila, delving into themes of obsession, power dynamics, and the consequences of broken emotional boundaries. The Bengali series Batashey Gungun has releases its reimagined title track — a bold reinterpretation of the beloved classic from Chirodini Tumi Je Amar . Directed by Arijeet Toton Chakrabarty with creative direction by Aditi Roy, the series follows three emotionally entangled characters. Srijla Guha leads as Pallabi, a lonely young woman whose need for love spirals into obsession. Suhotra Mukhopadhyay plays Arindam, her professor, a man caught between desire and responsibility. Manali Manisha Dey portrays Mithila, Arindam's wife — observant and unraveling under the weight of secrets. The reimagined track forms the emotional backbone of the series, weaving through moments of passion, paranoia, and psychological collapse. Visuals from the title sequence contrast stolen intimacy with silent devastation — a glance in a corridor, a marriage cracking in stillness, a gaze held too long. 'This is not a love story,' says Chakrabarty. 'It's about power, loneliness, and the damage we do when we break emotional boundaries.' Guha, emotionally connected to the track through her earlier work, called the experience 'surreal.' Mukhopadhyay added, 'The music echoes the contradictions in Arindam — gentle yet dangerous.' Batashey Gungun stands out as a disturbing portrait of love turned obsession, propelled by compelling performances and a title track that haunts long after it ends.
