The Telugu Netizens are shocked as Tamil actress Vichitra makes casting couch allegations against Balakrishna. While some believe her, a section of people do not trust her.

It is noteworthy that she did not take the name of Balakrishna Exclusively, but everyone got understood that she was talking about Bhale Vadivi Basu film.
Vichithra said, “In 2000, a late actor suggested a film to me. I don’t want to reveal the details. The shooting took place in Malampuzha, where I met my husband. That’s where I faced my worst-ever casting couch experience. Everyone knows that I disappeared from films after my wedding. This was the reason. I wanted to forget this incident, but this wound was so deep that it never healed. Opening up about the incident right now means I’ve faced my demons. We were put up in a 3-star hotel where my husband was the general manager. There was a party where I met the hero (very famous). He never asked my name but asked me to come to his room. It was a huge shock for me. I didn’t understand what kind of a gesture it was. That night, I went to my room and slept. From the next day, I started facing a lot of issues during shooting.”
