There's always a choice for the aspiring actress to say NO and leave the director's office
It's the director's fault to ask such favors from actresses who've got talent.

Whose side are you on?
Where does the fault lie in?
Is it ok for actresses to provide those favors and get the role and then point out the directors as criminals?
Are we over glorifying those victim heroines who went through casting couch?

I would say the director and the actress both of them are at fault,The director shouldn't ask such kind of favors and the actress should leave that director's office.
the actress first provided the favors to get the chance and now she try to play as a innocent victim which not acceptable.I think both of them need to be punished then only we can stop these kind of activities.

So is it ok to punish a cornered women who are tired of being rejected?

Her continuous failure and rejections doesn't justify her act, right? Anyway it's everyone personal choice we are no one to comment on it, It's always better to focus on our own improvements.
