Chitrangada Singh walking out of 'Babumoshai Bandookbaaz' raised many eyebrows. Citing discomfort in shooting intimate scenes, the actress left the film.

The news came as a shocker for everyone when the actress revealed that the sex scenes in the film were forced scenes, following which she also had a fallout with the director.

Now, while the #MeToo campaign is on, recently, Chitrangada was asked if she also holds Nawazuddin responsible for everything that happened with her.

To this, she stated that she doesn't blame Nawazuddin entirely but she added that Nawazuddin Siddiqui did not come out in her support while the producers and the director harassed her over a particular scene. She further stated how Nawazuddin just sat on the set and waited for the storm to blow over.

Speaking about the incident, in an earlier interview with an entertainment portal, Chitrangada had said, "We finished the shot and Kushan said that he didn't like it. He wanted me to lie on top of Nawaz.

Now let me tell you that I was wearing a petticoat for that scene. I turned around to tell Kushan about my predicament. I told him: 'Ho toh gaya. Kyun kar raha hai aise? Please try to understand that I am wearing a petticoat. But, he was in no mood to listen and we ended up having a big, loud argument.

And wait till you hear this! A few minutes later he went and told Nawaz that we had shot the intimate scene very well!! Can you beat that?"

After Chitrangada walked out of the film, Bidita Bag was taken aboard to star opposite Nawazuddin Siddiqui.

During a recent interview, Nawaz was yet again quizzed about the controversy and he had a different story to tell. He said that Chitrangada actually had issues with the script.

About Bidita agreeing to do the same intimate scenes which Chitrangada rejected, Nawaz said that Bidita was highly professional when it came to filming intimate scenes.

Nawaz said, "The intimate scenes had already been shot with Chitrangda Singh before she decided to walk out. She had other issues with the script because of which she decided to step away from the film."

It's professional, not personal

We hear from actors all the time that love/intimate scenes are just like any other scene, it's not real it's acting...

So now female actors need a MAN to rescue them from professional situations?

She is not underage, she should be able to handle her professional problems and hassles herself without a man coming to her rescue

This is sexual harassment. Telling someone to be in an intimate scene which they are clearly not comfortable with and spectators are just watching. Sexual harassment does not have to be physical it can be verbal as well and unfortunately that's what people fail to understand.
