During the conversation, we asked Uorfi how she managed to become so confident in her life. To which the actress replied, “It’s just the confidence that I gained after coming to Mumbai.

Now I have learn’t how important it is. I remember when I was new, a man called me at his place for auditions. There were no cameras there. He then told me to perform a a scene imagining thatyou are my lover and get intimate with me. I was like what is happening with me, there is no camera, what kind of audition is this. Instead of saying no I hesitated and performed that scene. Whereas, I should have slapped him.”
Furthermore, when asked if given an opportunity to go back and change anything, what would that be, Uorfi said, “I would slap a lot of a**holes. As I said the director who was trying to audition me without the camera and ask me to hug and come close, I should’ve slapped him.”
