Bollywood actress Sushmita Seen was last seen on the big screen in Boss alongside Akshay Kumar. Since then she has successfully transitioned to OTT platforms earning acclaim for her powerpact performances in popular shows like Aarya and Taali. Known for being strongly opinionated and voicing up for the right the actress one stood up for herself and stormed off the set after filming an intimate scene with actor Mithun Chakraborty accusing him of inappropriate behaviour. The controversy occurred on the sets of Chingaari when Mithun Chakraborty got carried away while filming an intimate scene with Sush leading to palpable friction between the two. Rumours surfaced that Sushmita walked away crying after Mithun touched her inappropriately. She also reported the problem to director Kalpana G. Lajmi who assured her that it was just a misunderstanding. Sources later claimed that Sushmita reconsidered the situation and felt that things just blew out of proportion. She then resolved the matter privately with Mithun. However none of them have ever addressed the matter publicly or confirmed this incident. Another controversy that surrounded around the film Chingaari involved Sushmita Sen and newcomer Anuj Sawhney who played a postman in love with Sushmitas character a sex worker. During the promotional phase Anuj reportedly boasted about her kissing sequence with her claiming that it took 36 retakes. The remarks enraged Sushmita and she refused to promote the film at all. Director Kalpana revealed losing out two months of publicity due to the ongoing rift. Anuj eventually apologised Sushmita for his behaviour which director acknowledged his mistake publicly. While she felt why Sushmita felt bad about Anuj remarks she admitted felling disappointed as the director and how the whole film was being publicised. In an interview with Hindustan Times Kalpana shared I dont think that a film like Chingari should be publicised in such a manner. I felt extremely hurt when Anuj gave importance to the kiss sequence rather than the whole message behind the film. Controversises aside when Sushmita was asked about her experience of portraying Basanti in Chingaari she said it was emotionally taxing. In a conversation with Hindustan Times the actress said that playing a sex worker took a toll on her psyche leaving her feeling uneasy and emotionally drained.
