Actress Surveen Chawla has bravely shared her painful experience in the film industry, especially regarding the casting couch culture. In a recent interview with Sidharth Kanan, she spoke about how difficult it was for her to survive in the industry without compromising her values.
Surveen Chawla Opens Up About Casting Couch
Surveen said that there was a time when the film industry felt “filthy and dirty” due to the inappropriate behaviour of some people. She revealed that she was offered many roles, but only if she agreed to certain wrong demands. Since she always refused, she lost many good opportunities. This constant rejection affected her deeply and made her doubt her career choices.

She explained that during that period, many people made the casting couch seem “normal” or even “trendy,” which made her feel very uncomfortable and emotionally weak. She began to feel like she didn’t belong in the industry. The pressure was so much that she even thought about quitting acting altogether.
Despite these challenges, Surveen Chawla stood strong and chose not to give up. She said it was not easy, but staying true to her values was more important than fame or success. Today, she is proud of her decisions and happy to be known for her hard work and talent rather than for compromising herself.
