In a conversation with India Today, Rajeev mentioned how men also faced casting couch problems in the film industry, Just like women. Men, however, don’t report it as often as women do because of how society views the problem. He claims that society believes men can handle the painful traumas of their work with ease. He said that he also faced the casting couch. For some odd reason, our society feels, ‘Haa ladka hai manage kar liya hoga isne.’
