I had to face ‘nepotism and factionalism in the film industry. This was revealed by dancer Koena Mitra, who danced to superhit songs like “O Saki-Saki”, “Dil Mein Baji Guitar”, during an interview.

She said that I believe that nepotism and factionalism exist in the film industry. I have been treated both ways. There was a time when despite being an outsider, I got a break in films. Then there came a time when I needed the people of the industry the most, but none of them stood by me. I will always complain against the industry that they did not openly take a stand for me.

The actress further says that I do not regret my plastic surgery. My face, my life I don’t think people should have any problem with this. She added, “When I entered the industry, I was very naive. I didn’t know what you should tell here and what I should stay silent on. During the conversation, somebody asked me about my surgery and I told them openly about it. But after this revelation it was, as if the whole world was after me, torturing me”.

Koena says even the media did not spare her. They were constantly spread negative news about her. People in the industry started distancing her. “Because of this, my work was greatly affected. I used to laugh when people advised me to stay strong and keep silent in front of the media”, says Koena.

Let us tell you that Koena won everyone’s heart with her dance in Sanjay Dutt-Anil Kapoor’s film ‘Musafir’. Koena, who made her debut with the 2002 film ‘Road’, went on to act in films like ‘Hey Baby’ and ‘Apna Sapna Money Money’. Recently she was also seen in the 13th season of Bigg Boss in 2019.
