Though she failed to provide the details in a professional way, still I gave her the benefit of the doubt, but while chatting I realised something is corny.” (ALSO READ: EXCLUSIVE: 'Namish Taneja, You Should Commit Suicide, Sushant Should Come Back': Fake Casting Agent For Naagin 5 ABUSES Vidya Star - Screen Shots Inside)
