Sai Tamhankar recalls shutting down a casting couch call: ‘You have to face it everywhere as a woman'

Actress Sai Tamhankar , known for her strong performances in both Marathi and Hindi cinema , recently spoke about her early experience with the casting couch in an interview with Bollywood Bubble. She recalled a disturbing phone call from years ago that she quickly shut down, saying she gave a 'karara jawab' (a firm reply) to the unwanted offer. 'You have to face it everywhere' While talking about the issue, Sai said that this problem is not limited to the film industry alone. 'Not only in our profession, but such things happen everywhere,' she said, pointing out that women face this kind of predatory behaviour in many areas of life. 'Fortunately, it never happened to me except for one random phone call many, many years ago—and I gave it a firm reply,' she said strongly. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Đăng ký Undo 'Casting couch is not the only way' Sai also stressed that how you carry yourself matters when working in the industry. 'I think if your intent is in the right place, you have nothing to worry about. And it's important to know that there are other ways—casting couch is not the only way.' On ' Hunterrr ' and public reaction Looking back at her bold role in the 2015 cult film 'Hunterrr', where she starred alongside Gulshan Devaiah , Sai shared her mature view on dealing with public judgement. 'If I start thinking about 'log kya kahenge' (what will people say), then I shouldn't be an actor. I believe that once you accept acting as your profession, you also accept that people will judge you.' Interestingly, the famous kissing scene in 'Hunterrr' was filmed a year after the main shooting had finished. 'I never saw it as bold or shocking—it was simply part of my job,' Sai said, proud of how the film has become a cult favourite over time.

I think pehle aise nahi hota tha, isiliye hum bolte hain, because no one had even tried before. Agar meri jagah koi aur try karta, they would have been accepted too, just like I was. My fans were flabbergasted. They were surprised—I hope pleasantly surprised.'

I look at it like this,' she added. A video from the Met Gala created an internet frenzy when Shah Rukh was seen introducing himself as a media person asked for his name. The clip where he said, 'Hi, I'm Shah Rukh,' sparked a different kind of discussion among fans, who criticised the media for not recognising such a major star. However, the Jawan actor remained calm and composed, showing no hesitation in introducing himself. Shah Rukh made his Met Gala debut in a custom black outfit by Sabyasachi Mukherjee. It featured a long coat made of Tasmanian superfine wool, paired with a satin shirt and tailored trousers. He complemented the look with intricately layered silver jewellery.

Ground Zero' Box Office Collection Day 4: Emraan Hashmi starrer crashes on first Monday; earns under Rs 1 crore

The action thriller 'Ground Zero', starring Emraan Hashmi, Sai Tamhankar in the lead, had a rather slow start at the box office, has now seen its numbers take a further dip on Day 4. Ground Zero Movie Review Directed by Tejas Prabha Vijay Deoskar , the film narrates the story of BSF officer Narendra Nath Dubey as he spearheads a mission against the dreaded terrorist Ghazi Baba. Day 4 Collection The film released with minimal buzz at the box office and received a lukewarm response from audiences during its initial days. According to early estimates by its collections dipped further on Monday, as is typical. However, given that the film was already raking in low numbers, its earnings dropped below the Rs 1 crore mark, collecting just Rs 70 lakh on Day 4. With this, the total box office collection has reached Rs 5.90 crore. Tough competition at the Box Office 'Ground Zero' is facing strong competition from older releases like 'Jaat', 'Kesari 2', and even the re-release of the classic comedy 'Andaz Apna Apna', which has likely pulled audiences away. Further, 'Ground Zero' is set to face even tougher competition, with much-anticipated films like 'Raid 2' and 'The Bhootnii' releasing in theatres soon. Come Thursday, it will face additional competition from the Marvel film 'Thunderbolts'. About the film and opening day collection Ground Zero, which also stars Zoya Hussain and Mukesh Tiwari, hit theatres on April 25, 2025.
