A blind item published by The Opinionated Indian recently ignited new debate in the film world, claiming that a newcomer actor was secretly in love with his underage co-star. The article not only reveals the unhealthy power dynamics in the Bollywood film industry but also implies that modern film sets are not absolutely safe or accountable which poses a question of serious concern. 

Blind Item

A young heartthrob was in the middle of a social media storm a few days back after pics of him holidaying in Goa with his alleged GF went viral. If the rumors are true, then he is not the only one who has been involved with a minor. As per a source, an outsider actor who starred in a sleeper hit a few years back has been dating his minor co-star of an upcoming movie. The outsider actor has an interesting lineup of movies. His debut movie was a horror flick & starred an older heroine who had never starred in a hit movie earlier. As luck would have it, the movie worked at the box office. He signed a few movie post its success. He met the minor female actor on the sets of the movie they are shooting together. She developed a huge crush on him & made her feelings obvious. He rejected her advances, citing their age gap, but she was in no mood to let him go. He finally succumbed to her advances & they started an affair. The minor female actor was seen in a critically acclaimed movie, which was directed by a female filmmaker & was a box office hit.

The rumors have swiftly become the talk of the internet, particularly as the actor involved is said to be an "outsider" who has been successful with a movie that didn't initially attract the audience and is now doing multiple projects. The latest development in the matter is the assertion that the connection between the two became increasingly intimate during the shooting of the new film, thereby breaking down the barriers between professional and personal relationships.

The blind item claims, at first the young female co-star had a major crush on the actor and she didn't hesitate to tell him, while the actor purportedly kept his distance because of their age difference. But, according to the story, the chemistry changed over the period, and what started as rejection finally turned into a clandestine affair, thus leaving many surprised at the extent of the charges.

The whole scandal has stirred up the issue of safety, accountability, and power factors in the film world. Although it is commonly argued that Bollywood is a lot more monitored now than in the past, such blind items still come up, indicating that the industry has not yet completely shaken off the problems of exploitation and inappropriate relationships which call for even stricter inspections and rules of responsibility.
