Singer Shreya Ghoshal comments on experiences of discrimination in India’s entertainment industry, including what she describes as challenges for women around the time before social media became widespread. She also references the “casting couch” issue, addressing how such practices affect women seeking opportunities in the industry.

In separate reporting, Ghoshal also responds to common perceptions about pay parity. According to the coverage, she clarifies misconceptions related to whether women receive equal pay compared with men in the industry, while speaking to broader concerns about fairness and working conditions for women.

The outlets’ focus overlaps on Ghoshal’s remarks about the casting couch and the environment women face, particularly in earlier periods. Both reports frame her comments as a public effort to correct misunderstandings and to highlight persistent structural challenges in entertainment, rather than concentrating on a specific incident or allegation tied to a particular individual.
