New Delhi : Bollywood actress Sushmita Sen while attending an event in Mumbai spoke about an incident which raised questions on the issue of women's safety in the country. She said, “So many times people think we don’t encounter things like misbehaviour because we have bodyguards."

The graceful Sushmita Sen is known for kind nature and elegance in the film industry. She recently opened up about shameful incident when a fifteen-year-old boy harrassed her in a public gathering.

Sushmita Sen said, “So many times people think we don’t encounter things like misbehaviour because we have bodyguards. Let me tell you, even with ten bodyguards around, we are dealing with a crowd of at least a hundred men who have often managed to misbehave with us.” the incident, the forty-two-year-old actor said, “Six months ago at an award function, a fifteen-year-old boy misbehaved with me as he thought I wouldn’t realize because of the crowd around. But, he was wrong. I grabbed his hand from my behind and I was shocked to see he was so young, he was just fifteen!”

“I held him by his neck and took him for a walk. I told him if I make a hue and cry, his life would be over. He denied having misbehaved at first, but I sternly told him to acknowledge. He realized his mistake, said sorry and promised me that it will never happen again,” she continued. “I didn’t take an action against him because I understood that the fifteen-year-old was not taught that such things are an offence and not entertainment”, added the actor.
