Barkha Dutt speaks to actor-turned-politician, BJP leader and National Commission for Women (NCW) Member Khushbu Sundar in the 30th episode of our podcast 'Inside Out'.
Khushbu makes a shocking revelation saying she was sexually abused by her father and he also tried to sell her sexually to film producers for an amount of Rs. 25,000 for one night. Khushbu says she was only 16 then.
She also spoke about her political stint with the DMK, Congress and now in the BJP. Khushbu talks about working in films as a child actor, her association with Hema Malini, 46 police cases against her news article, being in love, relationships, her husband and daughters, and also - for the first time- opens up on the biggest regret of her life.
