Golmaal Actor Susmita Mukherjee Reveals She Took up “C-Grade Films” to Repay a Rs 1 Crore Loan: “I Sold My Soul”
The actor said a Rs 1 crore debt and her daughter’s overseas schooling pushed her to accept roles she still does not feel proud of.
- On Thursday, actress Sushmita Mukherjee revealed she accepted roles in sexist, C-grade films to repay a Rs 1 crore loan after her production house, Prayas Production, went bankrupt in 2002.
- Financial ruin followed technological shifts in the industry, leaving Mukherjee facing abusive debt collectors at her home; with young children to support, she felt compelled to resume acting.
- Addressing criticism, Mukherjee clarified she never starred in pornography but admitted to making "bad choices," noting she and her husband worked relentlessly for three to four years to clear the debt.
- Beyond debt repayment, the earnings funded her daughter's education in Australia and New Zealand, with Mukherjee stating she has no "regrets" regarding those career decisions as they secured her family's future.
- Now financially stable, Mukherjee only accepts projects that "touch my soul," having been last seen in the 2025 Netflix crime-thriller series Dabba Cartel and prioritizing roles aligned with her values.
