Indian Express reports that the actress – who appears in the opening song of the film Baahubali – was shooting a song sequence for the film Hansa – Ek Sanyog, when fellow actor Umakanth Roy began to harass her. After making sexualised gestures, Umakanth attempted to touch Scarlett’s hair. Scarlett immediately slapped him, asked for the shoot to stop, and left the set.
According to the report, producer Suresh Sharma will begin the process of reporting the incident, and has requested the Film Federation of India to ensure that Umakanth apologises to Scarlett. If the actor fails to apologise, he may lose his license.
