Mimi Chakraborty humiliated on stage? Actress alleges public defamation at Bongaon event
Kolkata/IBNS: Bengali actress and former TMC MP Mimi Chakraborty has alleged that she was publicly humiliated during her performance at an event organized by Naya Gopal Gunj Yubak Sangha Club in Bongaon, West Bengal.
In an Instagram post, Chakraborty claimed she was abruptly asked to leave the stage without prior notice.
“There were many fans waiting to see me and take pictures. Leaving the stage in such a manner, accompanied by derogatory remarks over the microphone, was humiliating and publicly defaming,” she wrote. She added, “I left quietly to maintain decorum.”
Chakraborty further stated that she has taken the matter to legal authorities and emphasized the need to act against such behavior to prevent it from happening again.
A video circulating on social media shows Tanmoy Shastry, an official of the club, announcing that Chakraborty’s performance had ended as it was past midnight, leaving the actress apparently surprised.

Shastry defended his actions, claiming the police had permitted the event only until midnight. He also alleged that Chakraborty displayed an “attitude” despite receiving a substantial remuneration.
“This is a village. Police permission was till midnight. When I took the stage, it was past midnight, and I respectfully called off her performance. She cannot show attitude after being paid handsomely,” he said.
Shastry has threatened to release videos to substantiate his claims against the actress.
