Soundarya Sharma reveals never faced unsafe experience in Bollywood

When asked if she has faced an unsafe experience in Bollywood, Soundarya Sharma replied, “Never, never… I think I feel truly blessed. Like I said, I’ve only met good people. God has been very kind. And I’m not dismissing the fact that others may have experienced something like this. I’m sure it exists, and for me to say it doesn’t would be wrong. And I’m sure people must have gone through something or the other. But my experience so far has been very good—people have been very kind.”

She added, “It also depends on what kind of person you are. I think someone once told me, ‘If you wear red glasses, the world will look red; if you wear blue, the world will look blue.’ So, what kind of ‘glasses’ are you wearing? Everyone has their own perspective.”

Soundarya concluded, “Look, you can’t change someone else’s mindset or experience. I’m not taking away from the fact that, as some people have said, there are casting couch issues or things like that. But how you deal with it makes a difference. Things happen, and once they know there’s nothing to it, they see not everyone is like that. I mean, there are very good people out there. Manifestation is the biggest power, so maybe my manifestation is directed only toward positivity. I am an eternal optimist, so I can only speak from my experience.”
