Jiya Shankar recalls bullying:

Jiya Shankar has been in the industry for some years now. The actress has worked in TV serials and then was seen in a Marathi movie, Ved. The actress also participated in a reality show Bigg Boss OTT season 2. After all these years, she finally took the time to recall being bullied by senior actors and colleagues on the sets from her early days.

Recalling those horrible experiences, Jiya Shankar told Pinkvilla, "It has happened to me a lot of times. Because I'm a director’s actor. Aap jo bologe, jaisa bologe, yes sir, yes ma'am. I'll do that. Mein apna zyada input dene ki koshish nahi karti hu ki ye toh aise hona chahiye."

"Aise bohot baar huya ki just because I’m like this, that I’m very easygoing, logon ka lagta hain ki haan, isko toh kyase bhi treat kar sakte hain, and that happened a lot initially, jab mein nayi nayi thi industry mein. Jaan bujhkar kuch bhi bol dena, sabke samne set pe chilla dena, and I'm like, What did I even do? (Deliberately saying anything, yelling in front of everyone on set, and I'm like, ‘What did I even do?’) It's like there must be some reason, why are you yelling at me? You have come late to the sets. And chillam chilli chalu kar dena set pe, just because you want to show you’re someone important and you’re running the show. So, that has happened to me," said the actress.
