Vishal Aditya Singh recalls the molestation incident
Just a few hours ago, Paras Chhabra shared a video on his Instagram from his podcast show, Abraa Ka Dabra Show, featuring Vishal as he recounted the molestation incident.
When Paras asked him to elaborate on the incident, Vishal explained that some adults have inappropriate intentions towards boys, which young children may not understand. He recounted an incident where an uncle offered to teach him how to ride a bike, despite Vishal not even owning a bicycle at home. During that time, the uncle's actions took a disturbing turn.
Vishal shared that he was so scared that he didn’t want to go. He further revealed that the uncle lived next to the colony. He also recalled how his uncle molested him.
The actor mentioned that one can't discuss such incidents with his/her family because they encourage hiding them, similar to cases of rape involving girls. This led Vishal to decide that he would openly discuss it whenever asked. He emphasized the importance of protecting kids from such situations.
