"During
the
initial
days
of
my
career,
when
I
was
14,
a
director
put
his
hand
on
my
thigh.
I,
immediately
said
no
and
shook
him
off.
He
told
me,
'You
think,
you
are
going
to
be
a
star
yaha
koi
nahi
chodega
tumhe.
If
not
a
director,
an
actor
or
producer
might
exploit
you.
You
cannot
grow
without
that'."
