I
Was
Groped
At
The
Airport During
Prem
Ratan
Dhan
Payo
"I
have
been
groped
during
Prem
Ratan
Dhan
Payo
when
we
landed
at
Rajkot.
I
was
travelling
with
Salman
Sir
and
nobody
realised,
but
there
were
around
2,000
people
at
the
airport
to
see
him."
Anupam
Kher
Came
To
Her
Rescue
Swara
added,
"Despite
the
fact
there
was
security,
people
got
in
and
it
was
Anupam
Kher
who
made
sure
I
got
into
the
car.
It
was
crazy."
I
Once
Slapped
A
Guy
For
Pinching
Me
"The
first
time,
I
slapped
a
guy
for
pinching
me
in
Old
Delhi.
There
used
to
be
a
Sunday
book
bazaar
there,
so
I
caught
hold
of
the
guy.
These
people
don't
expect
women
to
react
which
is
why
it's
all
the
more
important
for
women
to
react."
I
Have
Beaten
Someone
With
My
Umbrella
In
Mumbai
Narrating
yet
another
incident,
Swara
says,
"I
was
in
a
train
alone
-
this
was
my
first
year
in
Mumbai
-
going
somewhere
to
collect
a
cheque.
I
was
in
the
first-class
compartment
and
it
was
in
the
late
afternoon
so
it
was
empty.
A
drug
addict
got
in
and
when
I
turned
around,
I
see
this
man
masturbating.
For
one
second,
I
was
scared.
It
took
me
a
second
to
realise
what
was
going
on,
I
started
yelling
at
him,
and
beating
him
with
the
umbrella.
I
tried
to
catch
hold
of
his
collar
because
I
knew
the
moment
the
train
stops,
he
will
run.
I
knew
I
can
get
him
to
the
police
if
I
hold
him
back.
But
the
moment
the
train
slowed
down,
he
realised
I
was
holding
him
to
get
him
to
the
police,
and
he
jumped
off
from
the
other
end
of
the
compartment."
I
Felt
Ashamed
The
First
Time
I
Kissed
A
Guy
Swara
even
spoke
about
victim-shaming
and
shared
her
personal
experience.
She
was
quoted
saying,
"Frankly,
Indian
women
inherit
this
collective
cultural
unconscious
-
this
sense
of
guilt,
shame
and
dishonour.
What
do
we
teach
our
girl
child
today?
We
teach
them
to
be
guilty
of
their
own
desires,
if
they
shop
for
themselves
it's
wrong.
But
spend
on
your
husband,
your
kids,
be
obedient
and
think
about
everybody
else's
good
except
yours.
I
remember
for
the
longest
time,
especially
when
I
was
growing
up,
the
first
time
I
kissed
a
guy,
I
felt
ashamed.
I
felt
I
did
something
very
wrong
and
imagine,
I
was
18
years
old
then.
It
wasn't
that
I
was
too
young
as
well.
I
think
Indian
girls
need
to
become
shameless
and
a
little
selfish
too.
It's
not
about
individuals,
it's
about
girls
in
general.
We
need
to
lose
that
burden
of
guilt
and
that
‘haww' feeling.
That
is
the
stupidest
feeling
ever."
