Pepper spray~ mom~ stranger-alert...

By:     

Scared after the alleged rape of the SA model, actresses and models are on high alert

Mona ChopraMona Chopra, actress (Time Pass, Jawani Deewani and Dosti)
I have become vigilant and check the credentials of every casting director or model coordinator, since the incident. My sister is now reluctant to join the industry.

Chitrita Mitra, actress (Marathon)
Of course, I am concerned and scared. If Im partying I guard my drink and dont interact with strangers. Even at work, I will not entertain any unknown casting director or coordinator or meet him alone. I am here to work only with reputed production houses.

Aditi Gowatrikar, actress
I am shocked. Yes, the incident has affected aspirants who have to be more vigilant before meeting anyone. Nowadays, I send my manager to attend meetings with strangers.

Shirrin Shringar, actress (Jaane Bhi Do Yaron)
My mother accompanies me wherever I go and I make it a point not to drink or eat anywhere. I also keep in touch with friends and let them know where Ill be partying. I also carry pepper spray with me.

Diana Hayden, former Miss World
I think the incident has sent ripples not only across the film industry, but the whole country. Actresses should be extra-careful now and keep an eye on their drinks as well. They should check the credentials of people they meet.

Amrita Arora, actress
I feel Bollywood aspirants should be cautious and check the credentials of the person they meet. And yes, avoid meeting people at night.

Anupama Verma, model turned actress
The incident has affected aspiring models, especially foreigners. After the incident, I have stopped attending unknown calls.

Ayesha Takia, actress
I am actually not aware about it, thus commenting on the incident would be irrelevant.
