He called as daughter but wanted child ...' Actress accused!!!

After the hema Committee report came out, the Me Too movement has once again become active in the malayalam film industry. In other states of the South too, actresses are revealing about the harassment they faced. Recently, actress Soumya also told how a tamil director raped her and all this continued with her for a year. In an interview to NDTV, Soumya said- 'I was 18 years old and was in the first year of college... I came from a very secure background and my parents did not know anything about films. The opportunity to work in a tamil film came through my college theatre contact.'

The actress was not comfortable with the director

Soumya further said- 'I was a child, that's why I was attracted to actress revathi who lived near my house at that time. I was in a fantasy world, so I went for a screen test with this couple.' The actress told that the director had told her father that he had spent a lot of money on her screen test. Soumya said that she was not comfortable with that person. But she felt obliged to do that film.

'I was under his control and he behaved with me...'

The actress further told- 'During the first outdoor shoot, he did not talk to me. The deal was that his wife would be the director, but it was on paper. Actually he was directing the entire film and so I was under his control and he behaved silently with me as many men are used to doing. Soumya further says that the director's behavior changed with her later.'

'He kissed me calling me his daughter...'

Soumya says- 'I was a teenager who was rebellious at home and suddenly this couple started behaving well with me, bribed me with good food. That was the process of grooming. He knew very well what he was doing. One day, when his wife was not around, this man kissed me, calling me his daughter. I was completely shocked. I was so excited to tell my friends, but couldn't.'
