However, what shocked the internet was his revelation about his childhood days. Talking about the same, Rohit revealed that he was raped by his uncle at the age of 8. Further, he revealed that he couldn't talk about it to anyone as he was terrified. In his words:
"I come from an intellectual family where I was the black sheep. Maybe because I wasn't that great at my studies, I was bullied a lot at home. I did not know what my sexuality is and why do I feel like a woman, maybe because I was also raped in my childhood time. Back then, I was very horrified as we weren't that frank with our parents to go and share such things with them. I did not share this with anyone because nobody would have believed me. My real uncle used to do that to me when I was eight years of age. He used to drape me in a saree, put hot wax on me and, keep injections around, put his d**k in my mouth. He used to do all the horrible things. I was horrified to tell my mother because he said that nobody will believe you, and this went on for 3-4 years. I faced that in my family, and I didn't tell anyone."
Further, in the same interview, Rohit Verma talked about his struggle period. Talking about the same, Ek Haazaro Me Meri Behna Hai actor revealed that he had worked as a prostitute during his initial days in Mumbai. In his words:
"I needed money in Mumbai. At that time, I used to walk around the Taj wearing girls' clothes to fulfill my needs. People took me once or twice and I bought designing stuff with the money I got from here. I don't have any regrets because I wanted to do this, no one ever forced me."
