Most Bollywood beauties don't take sexual harassment lightly. From Amisha Patel and Kalki Koechlin of "Dev D" fame to "Traffic Signal" star Neetu Chandra and Minissha Lamba - they all are quite sure that if any molester comes their way, he would get a thrashing that he would remember for the rest of his life!
But there are some who prefer to ignore, forget and move on.
Eesha Koppikhar: I have never tried my martial arts on anybody yet. However, I know that I surely will if I need to. I'm a red belt in Taekwondo and getting all set to appear for my black belt next month. So all you eve teasers out there, beware!
Chitrangada Singh: I will ignore him as much as possible because sometimes that's the best reply. Else I will talk straight to him around what exactly is he doing. After that whatever way it goes, I won't really care. Usually calmness saves the situation!
Neetu Chandra: I would play it quite simple actually. One kick, right on his face, no questions asked. Period. Case closed. When would otherwise my martial arts come to good use?
Kalki Koechlin: Most days I would ignore it. However, if I was having a really bad day then I might shout, scream, deliver a lecture or make a scene depending on the intensity of the eve teaser's act.
Anushka Manchanda: I will turn around say, "Ooho, zara is ladke ki a** ko to dekho. Idhar toh aa chikne'! Believe me, I'm capable of doing that. Actually whenever this has happened to me, I have usually just stopped and stared hard with full contempt at the guys who do it. They usually get embarrassed and make a run for their lives. I have slapped a guy once a long time ago. He looked so stunned and his shock was so funny that I almost laughed at his face.
Minissha Lamba: Most of the times I just let things go because it's not worth it. But if this teasing happens to me when I am in a foul mood then lord save the person!
Koena Mitra: I wouldn't give them any importance because that's what they are looking for actually. I wouldn't even bother to teach them a lesson.
Divya Dutta: I have beaten quite a few of these eve teasers back there in Punjab. I detest eve teasing and would never let the guy go scot-free.
Sophie Chaudhary: In fact, some time back I came across this drunk security guard who kept falling on me rather than protecting me. I put him in place by giving him a tight slap. Seriously, I wouldn't allow anyone to misbehave with me. I would be sensible though and wouldn't take on a gang of eve teasers by myself. I would make sure that I had someone with me so that I am safe.
