On the reality show Bigg Boss 13, Vishal Aditya Singh has previously spoken out about being molested when he was nine years old. Recalling the incident that occurred in his hometown of Arrah (Bihar), the actor explains that his decision to confront the culpit years later sparked a #MeToo movement that resulted in as many as 21 victims coming forward. "Jismein mere chacha bhi the, three other friends, seven culprits, and fourteen victims all told me their tales. 21 people gathered around to discuss their ordeal. He continues, "Up until that point, nobody talked about it; log isko itna daba dete hain, kisi ka muh kaala na ho. My father [at the time] hit me after I told him about the incident.

Remembering the horrifying incident, the Chandrakanta actor says, “Mere mohalle ke chacha the. Gaanv mein yeh sab hota hai,par log maante nahin hain.”

It was after he shifted to Mumbai that the actor realized what happened was immoral, and he decided to talk about it openly. “Ek kachot reh jaati hai jab aap uss insaan ko dekhte ho. When I came to Mumbai, I got what happened was wrong and I should take action. So, I went home to confront that person. I questioned him, ‘The way you behaved with me, what if I do that to your kids?’ Soon, all the villagers got to know about him,” he adds.

Vishal Aditya Singh had been a part of various shows such as Bigg Boss 13, Chandrakanta, Jhalak Dikkhla Jaa, Kulfi Kumar Bajewala and many others.
