Watch video! Abhay Deol: I’ve been taken advantage of, manipulated and gaslit by directors I worked with!

Abhay Deol joins mid-day.com’s Flashback with the stars

Abhay Deol is the latest guest on mid-day.com’s special series, ‘Flashback with the stars.’ The actor who is looking forward to his next release ‘Jungle Cry’ opens up about being taken advantage of by people who he has worked with in the past, how being honest worked against him, his plans to turn director, being ignored by Bollywood awards and much more.

Abhay says, “Honesty is not necessarily the best policy. I’ve always tried to be who I am, what you see is what you get! When you wear your heart on your sleeve, you can also be reactionary. I’ve been taken advantage of, manipulated and gaslit by directors I worked with! There’s a narrative about you, that’s false. I’ve made mistakes not just in trusting people I shouldn’t have but also in being honest! There are directors who don’t have your best interests at heart and are just using you to get ahead in life but I had to experience those people otherwise I would be this naïve, idealistic kid, reactionary too, oblivious to the fact that there are people who harbor ill will!”
