Vinod Suryavanshi Faced Discrimination: Vinod Suryavanshi, who made his mark with the famous web series Panchayat 3, is in the news these days. The reason for this is not the character he played in the Panchayat but the story of his life. Which he had shared recently. What he shared is not just the story of an artist but exposes a bitter truth of the society. While on one hand his hard work is getting him recognition on screen, on the other hand his past is still linked to problems like discrimination and untouchability.

In an interview, the actor revealed that caste discrimination still exists in his village in Karnataka and it has affected his personal life as well. For this, in his childhood, he had to wash the utensils himself after having food in the hotel, even though he had paid the entire bill. Not only this, even today there is a temple where they are not allowed to enter. These statements of his have once again raised the question whether the roots of casteism are so deep in modern India that even a successful artist is suffering. Let us know what he shared.

At that time he did not know why this happened to him, but later he realized that it was all because of his small caste.

Entry is not available in the temple even today

During this, Vinod also told that even today people are discriminated against in his village and this is seen openly. He had told, ‘There is a temple in our village, where even today we are not allowed to enter. We have to supply oil and other puja materials from outside. Only after this the priest offers it inside. He further told that some time ago he had gone to the same temple to get his child tonsured, but even today the situation there is the same. Although he thought that things would have changed after so many years but it did not happen.
