  • AvrRam, who hails from Sweden, said, "One girl who was connected to Bollywood told me, 'Oh, but sweetheart you can never become an actress because you're too short.'"

    "I choose not to listen to that. Within two months of me being in India, I felt I don't have it. Some felt I looked old like an aunty because of my long hair," she added.

    "After that meeting, I asked my friend about it. He was shocked and told me that he (director) wanted to sleep with me."
