Tillotama Shome Shares A Frightening Ordeal

In a recent interview with Hauterrfly, Shome recounted that she was waiting for a bus on a dark winter evening, and a group of men began harassing her. She said, “Some cat calls started. Somebody threw a small stone. I moved away a little bit more. Then I was like, I have to go from here. Now either I run, but they can outrun me. They’ll outnumber me.”

Feeling increasingly unsafe, she attempted to escape the situation but was cornered. Determined to protect herself, Shome accepted a ride from a stranger in a passing car with a medical sign. She explained, “We just moved a little bit. He took my hand and he unzipped his pants and I guess he wanted me to do whatever.”

She further added, “The moment he forced my hand, it was like an instinct hit, like hitting out. I don’t know what I did, but he had to stop his car because something happened. He swerved, whatever. And he asked me to get out.” While calling it a terrifying experience, she added that she was shaken by it, but her instinct to fight back helped her get out of the situation. 

On the professional front, Tillotama is currently seen in Tribhuvan Mishra: CA Topper alongside Manav Kaul in the lead. The Netflix show started streaming from July 18.
