Rahuol Lohani, while talking to Bombay Times, said that casting couch is very common in showbiz and most actors have encountered such experiences at some point of their career. While the actor too received many offers, he said that he rejected them all as he was not looking for a shortcut. Rahuol Lohani told BT, “I always rejected these offers as I was never looking for a shortcut. I don’t believe actors when they say never faced casting couch. Actors are made to believe that they won’t get work if they don’t compromise. However, I believe that everything depends on how ambitious you are and how you want to achieve your goals. If you are overambitious, you could be prone to taking the wrong path and regret the choices you made later.”
