Why did Mandana Karimi quit Bollywood?
As per a new interview with Hindustan Times, Mandana was never “hungry” or “crazy” about the acting career. In fact, she allegedly never loved Bollywood or her job.
If one may recall, Karimi announced her decision to quit Bollywood in 2012. She had earlier accused director Sajid Khan of sexual harassment. When she saw his way back in the industry via Bigg Boss 16, she declared that she did not want to be involved in an industry where there is no respect for women.
It is worth noting that Mandana still gets offers from Bollywood. She shared with the development, “It is of course hard to say no to money but I still have casting director friends, who call me for auditions and I have to say I can’t devote so much time.”
