A social media butterfly, Sushmita Sen often makes news with her Instagram posts, but this time she has done it by recalling one of the most horrible experiences of her life.

We have heard of women from all walks of life being molested by men, and Bollywood actresses are no exception. A number of actresses, even the popular ones, have shared their experiences of being harassed by men. Recounting her experience, former Miss Universe Sushmita Sen has also added her name to the list, but her story is a bit different and far more shocking than that of others.
The fact that makes her story much more terrible than others is that she was molested by a 15-year-old boy! With all her bodyguards around, she was touched inappropriately by that boy.
The Free Press Journal quotes her saying:
“So many times people think we don’t encounter things like misbehaviour because we have bodyguards. Let me tell, even with 10 bodyguards around, we are dealing with a crowd of 100 men who have often managed to misbehave with us. Six months ago at an award function, a 15-year-old boy misbehaved with me as he thought I wouldn’t realize because of the crowd around. But, he was wrong. I grabbed his hand from my behind and I was shocked to see he was just 15.”
The beauty queen further added:
“I held him by his neck and took him for a walk. I told him if I make a hue and cry, his life would be over. He denied having misbehaved at first but I sternly told him to acknowledge. He realized his mistake, said sorry and promised me that it will never happen again. I didn’t take action against him because I understood that the 15-year-old was not taught that such things are an offence and not entertainment.”
Isn’t this story shocking? But the good part is that Sushmita decided to teach the teenage boy a lesson instead of letting him go without getting unnoticed. What do you think? Do let us know in the comments section below!
