Lavanya
Opens
Up
About
Unwanted
Casting
Director
Advances:
In
a
recent
interview,
Lavanya,
the
talented
actress
from
the
popular
serial
'Pandian
Stores,'
revealed
her
unsettling
experience
with
a
casting
director.
Lavanya
spoke
candidly
about
the
casting
director's
inappropriate
proposal
for
a
6-month
deal,
shedding
light
on
the
uncomfortable
situations
many
aspiring
actors
face.
Originally
from
Coimbatore,
Lavanya
pursued
her
dreams
of
becoming
an
actress
after
securing
a
high-paying
job
at
a
bank
following
her
studies
at
SRM
College
in
Chennai.
However,
her
secret
aspirations
for
acting
led
her
to
modelling
and
advertisements.
Initially,
her
family
was
shocked
when
they
discovered
her
desire
to
act,
but
Lavanya's
determination
eventually
won
them
over.
She
made
her
debut
in
the
serial
'Sippikul
Muthu,'
which
aired
on
Star
Vijay
TV.
Afterward,
Lavanya
took
on
the
role
of
Mullai
in
'Pandian
Store,'
following
in
the
footsteps
of
the
late
V.
J.
Chitra
and
Kaavya
Arivumani,
where
her
performance
was
warmly
received
by
fans.
Beyond
television
serials,
Lavanya
has
ventured
into
films
and
is
also
part
of
the
web
series
'Vera
Maari
Office,'
available
on
the
Aha
OTT
platform.
Lavanya's
Distressing
Encounter
With
A
Casting
Director
In
her
interview,
Lavanya
disclosed
that
during
her
initial
foray
into
acting,
a
casting
director
approached
her,
initially
offering
opportunities.
However,
the
situation
took
a
distressing
turn
when
the
casting
director
suggested
she
stay
connected
and
proposed
a
6-month
adjustment
period.
Lavanya
hesitated
to
respond
and
remained
silent
as
the
casting
director
claimed
that
other
actresses
had
accepted
such
arrangements
to
advance
their
careers.
"The
casting
director
claimed
that
this
decision
would
elevate
my
career,
citing
examples
of
other
actresses
who
had
benefited
from
such
agreements.
I
chose
to
remain
silent
during
the
encounter.
Eventually,
I
left
without
providing
a
response.
My
career
had
just
started,
and
I
was
afraid
that
speaking
out
against
this
person
publicly
would
jeopardise
it.
However,
I
no
longer
harbour
that
fear,
which
is
why
I
am
addressing
this
issue
now," Lavanya
said
in
the
interview.
Lavanya's
bold
decision
to
speak
out
about
this
unsettling
encounter
has
garnered
support
from
fans
and
industry
insiders
alike.
