Tannishtha claimed that when she came into the film industry, she also had to suffer through the sexual advances by the men in power. Talking to News18, Tannishtha revealed, "When I first came to the industry, I faced it from some of the biggest names. I ran away from all that. I told myself that I'll only work with casting directors who're women and men who're very professional." She accepted that the film industry has "various levels of corruption" and one should raise their voice for the inconvenience caused. However, Tannishtha believes that "It will take another two-three generations for better times to come."

Tannishtha accepts that women in the industry have to face all kinds of inconvenience and one of them is "sexual favours along with under the table deals." The actress said, "But we can never name them. Whatever little work we're getting, if we start naming, we'll be completely out of work. The only choice we've is not to work with most people." However, Tannishtha applauds all the women who have come forward amid Hema Committee Report findings.
