Mouni Roy reveals facing harassment at an event; says, “I’m humiliated, traumatised and want the authorities to take action”

Mouni Roy, popularly known for her roles in shows like Naagin, Devon Ke Dev Mahadev, and more, recently shared a horrid experience. She posted a long note on her Instagram stories talking about an incident that she recently encountered. Mouni revealed how she faced harassment by two men at an event and urged the authorities to immediately take action.

The actress took to her Instagram stories to talk about the incident and revealed that as she walked towards the stage, several male family members placed their hands on her waist under the guise of taking photographs.




She wrote, “Had an event in Karnal last night, and I’m disgusted with the behaviour of the guests, especially two uncles who are well-aged enough to be grandparents. As the event started and I walked towards the stage, uncles and family members (all men) put their hands on my waist to click pictures. I didn’t like it, and when I said, ‘Sir, please remove your hand,’ they didn’t listen.”

She further shared, “On stage is an even better story. Two uncles stood right in front, making lewd remarks, showing lewd hand gestures, and name-calling. I realised that and first politely gestured to them not to do it, to which they started throwing roses at me. It was when, mid-performance, I walked towards the stage exit but immediately came back to finish my performance. They didn’t stop even after that, and no family members or organisers moved them from the front. If someone like me has to go through this, I can only imagine what new girls starting to work and do shows must face. I’m humiliated, traumatised, and want the authorities to take action for this intolerable behaviour.”

In another Instagram story, Mouni concluded by saying, “We are artists trying to earn an honest living through our craft. I wonder what these men would do if their friends behaved the same way with their daughters, sisters, or any family members. Shame on you!”
