Veteran actress Upasana Singh, known for her role as ‘Bua’ in “Comedy Nights with Kapil,” recently opened up about a troubling incident early in her career involving a South Indian director.
Uncomfortable Proposition
Singh recounted that the director offered her a role opposite Anil Kapoor but insisted on a late-night meeting at a hotel to discuss the script. At 17, she was naive and didn’t initially grasp the implication. Upon realizing the inappropriate intent, she confronted the director publicly, expressing her outrage.
Impact on Career
The incident left Singh emotionally distressed, leading her to isolate herself for days. However, with her mother’s support, she emerged stronger and continued her acting journey, eventually gaining recognition in both Bollywood and regional cinema.
