Bharti Singh recently opened up about her struggles during her initial days in the industry in an interview with Maniesh Paul. Bharti made some really shocking revelations about being inappropriately touched by show coordinators back in the day as they would rub their hands on her back. But the ace comedian said that she did not have the courage back then and did not seem to understand what was happening. Bharti appeared on Maniesh Paul’s podcast wherein she said that now she has the courage to hit back.
Bharti said, “The coordinators (of shows) misbehaved sometimes. They would rub their hands on the back. I would know it’s not a good feeling, but then I would think that he’s like my uncle, he can’t be bad. Maybe I am wrong and he is right. So I thought this doesn’t feel right. I had no understanding.” She further added that back then she did not have the confidence to fight but now she can stand up to such bullies, “I have the confidence to fight now, for my body, for my honour. I can now say ‘what is the matter, what are you looking at, go out we are changing now’. I can speak up now, but I had no courage back then.”

In the same podcast, Bharti had also talked about her late father. She got emotional saying she did not know her father too much but she doesn’t allow her family to put up his pictures in the house.
Meanwhile, Bharti is currently hosting Dance Deewane 3 with her husband Harsh Limbachiyaa. She has also begun filming for the return of The Kapil Sharma Show.
