Cigarette burn
Recounting the horror, Nupur says, "Zee gave me passes to see the Sa Re Ga Ma Pa show, but I gave those to my husband and his friend who are more interested in song-n-dance shows. Instead, I headed to a beauty parlour near my place. On my way back, I heard a man saying something very vulgar. It was so vulgar that I don't think you will be able to print it."
When Nupur turned round to see who it was, she realised that the man was saying that to her. "I just said 'Idiot' and walked away. Soon, I realised that he was following me. I tried sending an SMS to my husband, but it wasn't going through. I couldn't afford to waste more time on my cellphone, and doubled my speed.
When I turned into the lane that leads to my building, he came forward and blocked my way. He said, 'Mujhe aapse baat karni hai' and the tone was very suggestive. He looked like he was a plumber or an electrician. I held his hand and screamed for help. I didn't want him to escape. But he had a cigarette in his mouth which he stubbed on my hand. My grip loosened and he ran away."
By the time, Nupur's husband returned, the stalker was nowhere in sight. Now, her husband says that she should take another walk in the same street and see if she can spot the man. "But neither have I had the
time, nor the guts. I cannot forget that incident; I feel there's a shadow lurking behind me. It will take some time to put it behind me completely," she says.
Nupur has done other shows like Malini Iyer, Reth, Des Mein Niklla Hoga Chand and Saat Phere. Currently, she is also doing Ek Chaabi Pados Mein.
