Tillotama Shome has impressed the audiences with her brilliant performances in films and series such as Monsoon Wedding, Delhi Crime, The Night Manager, Sir, and A Death in the Gunj among others. Her most recent release is the series Tribhuvan Mishra: CA Topper, which began streaming on Netflix from July 18.

During the promotions of the show, Tillotama recalled a horrifying molestation incident she faced in Delhi. Talking to Hauterrfly, the actress said, "It was winters in Delhi. It was evening and it was getting dark. I was standing at the bus stop waiting for the bus. Then a car came and stopped. Six guys got down from it". She added that she moved a little away from them to protect herself.

"Then some cat call 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", she further said. Tilottama then stated that she decided to stand in the middle of the road and ask for a lift. Many cars passed by but didn't stop untill she saw a car with a medical sign that stopped and she sat in the front seat as she felt safe in that car.

"We just moved a little bit. He took my hand and he unzipped his pants and I guess he wanted me to do whatever. 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", Tilottama concluded recalling the terrifying incident.

Talking about her latest show, Tribhuvan Mishra: CA Topper also stars Manav Kaul, Shubhrajyoti Barat, Shweta Basu Prasad, Naina Sareen, and Ashok Pathak in the leading roles.
