Gautam Gulati shot to fame with his stint in Bigg Boss. He was loved madly by his fans and was the one who shot to the moon with success. He starred in Azhar and played the role of legendary cricketer Ravi Shastri. He is now back making headlines and this time it is for his digital venture Operation Cobra. But right before anything comes on ground, he shared something which came as an eye opener.

In the wake of the #MeToo movement, Gautam opined that when a situation comes, one should always put their foot down and say out loud the thing which bothers them. In an interview to a leading entertainment tabloid, Gautam said,"It did happen to me! Somebody tried on me, way back 10 years ago. When I was 21 years old, somebody tried to misbehave and I completely went against that guy. Obviously, I was thrown out of the modeling shoot but I didn't care. I anyway wanted to be an actor, so modeling wasn't that imperative for me. So it was easy for me to do it (go against the harasser)."

He went on to add details and said,"the harasser wasn't a famous personality, but an agent from Delhi. There are many fashion agencies in Delhi, he was from there. A guy tried on me, but you should always have the guts to say no to them. You cannot let them take advantage of you," he added.

Well, that's something we all need to learn. After many Bollywood names were called out, most of them were women who narrated their stories. There are men too who have suffered and their stories are even harder to find. You can very well think, why?
