Abhishek Kumar, an actor who came in second on the Salman Khan-hosted reality series Bigg Boss 17, has described a troubling event in Mumbai that left him feeling traumatized. In an interview with Pinkvilla, Abhishek revealed that he was shocked by his encounter with a casting couch in Mumbai one day. He was so frightened that he called his mother in tears.

What Abhishek said

Abhishek remarked, "Mere saath ek incident ho gaya tha," during the conversation. He had grown quite tactile. He was a little bit gay. After one and a half, two months in Bombay. An incident occurred in which a gay guy touched me, and I was frightened and thought... I mean, nothing like that had happened, but he tried to convince me that in order to progress, I had to do that. I had been in Mumbai for around two months at this point. I was told that you have to do these things in order to progress, but nothing occurred.

I don't want to work in this sector

"Aur maine ghar pe nahi bataya tha ki main Bombay mein hu. Unko bataya tha ki mein Delhi mein training kar raha hoon. So I called Mummy and I told her that this had happened to me, crying. said Abhishek. "Come back," she said. I purchased a train ticket for the next day in general. I sit down in the main general and go back home weeping. I hadn't let my family know that I was in Mumbai; instead, they believed I was in Delhi. The first time, I just went in and said that it would be quite difficult for me to enter this business. I sobbed to my mother over the phone, and she urged me to come back home. I booked my tickets the next day, and I wept in the general compartment as I returned home. That was the first moment I realized that this field is extremely difficult and that I might not succeed in it.

Abhishek is most famous for playing Aditya Raichand in Bekaboo and Amrik Singh Virk in Udaariyaan. His arguments with Isha Malviya, an actress and former girlfriend, on Bigg Boss 17 drew notice.
