She furr added, "I could walk away because I had a home to go back to. I had family, I had food on my plate and I had thing to worry about. A lot of people have circumstances that are different. As a woman, you have sixth sense and instinct. one has asked me for a coffee. If I went to have coffee with someone, it was because I wanted to go. I felt it was below my dignity to get work in any or way. I don't judge ors who had to use any sort of means as everyone's circumstances are different."

In same interaction, Vidya Balan also opined that women avoid talking about sexual harassment out of fear of being judged. She remarked that women never had cour to talk about sexual harassment as invariably finger would be pointed back at m.

"Here (in entertainment industry) it gets written about. film industry is a part of society. Here it gets amplified and that is only difference. In West, it has happened to powerful and successful people and y did t do anything about it. So you think, I am t only one (facing it). But people have started talking, revealing things," said Vidya Balan.
