Actress and model Nauheed to Cyrus He explained why he has been seen less in cinema and television in recent years. Nauheed is also an influencer and gained a lot of popularity on social media. In a candid video shared on her Instagram, she opened up about her experiences in the industry and explained why she chooses to be selective about the roles she takes on.Nauheed, who first shot to fame with the song Piya Basanti and later gained recognition for her role in Anwar, revealed that some of the expectations within the industry made her uneasy. He said, “Hmm, let’s kill two birds with one stone, shall we? This is probably the most asked question. It’s a great time to be in the movie world, but one of the things they sign you into your contract with is that you have to be very comfortable kissing.“He expressed his discomfort with the increasing use of such scenes. “And I’m sorry, abhi toh faaltoon me bhi they keep adding the kissing scene and everything. And I’m sorry to say, but I don’t think we see the kiss right on screen. I don’t know what it is. Or they don’t know how to film it well, I don’t know.”According to him, this attitude has often cost him his job. “Before I can say yes or no, I’m rejected, no, I’m not comfortable with the kissing part,” she said.Nauheed also spoke about the financial struggles she encountered, complaining that payments were sometimes withheld. “Now imagine filming the finale, okay? And like the producer keeps about 25 percent of your payment. Many times I never received that payment. As if it never arrived. They said, arre picture acchi nahi hui, chali nahi, falani nahi, bhi nahi nahi. And I’m like me, but I did my part. You know, there’s a contract and who am I to sue, right? I won’t be able to do that.“In retrospect, he admitted that being away from industry networking circles may have influenced his career as well. “I wasn’t someone who hung around in the clique of actors, producers etc. So I had my whole life outside of acting. And that’s why I would end up as the sad end of the stick. Somebody’s sister, somebody’s bhabhi, somebody’s… I’m just not interested in doing that. I’d rather not do this.”Nauheed made a comeback with Bombay Begums and was recently seen in Jab Khuli Kitaab, Dir. Saurabh Shuklacurrently streaming on ZEE5.
