Mandana Karimi alleges harassment by Mahendra Dhariwal; producer calls her behaviour unprofessional

Speaking to a daily, the actress said that she has been shooting for over a year despite knowing that the team was unprofessional and that the producer was an old-school man who turned the set into an egoistic male-dominated place.

When they began shooting again and reached out to her for new dates, she said she was busy. She demanded Rs. 3 lakh, which he says he paid to her. He said the shift on November 13 was 9 am to 9 pm but she said she wanted to leave at 7 pm. At 8 pm, she got a call and she went into her vanity van. He said he ran to speak to her, she began recording me screaming and requested her for additional 15 minutes of the song shoot but he lost his cool when she started acting up. He alleged that she was signed for Rs. 7 lakhs but in over a year and a half she has taken Rs. 17 lakhs including cash transactions. He alleged she behaved unprofessionally.
