Speaking to Humans of Bombay, Uorfi mentioned that it all started when someone put up one of her pictures on a porn site. "When I was 15, someone uploaded my picture on a porn site. It was a normal picture. I uploaded it wearing a tube top as my Facebook profile photo. Someone downloaded them and uploaded it on a porn site without morphing, without anything. Slowly, everyone got to know about it. Everyone started blaming me a lot. I was told I am a porn star. I was like ‘Where is the video?’ But they said, ‘No, no she is a porn star’," she said.

“Even my father was like ‘she is a porn star’. I think my father was trying to gain sympathy from all this. He was telling everyone that porn site people are asking for??50 lakh. He told our relatives. I was like that isn't possible but I couldn't say anything because they were beating me up at home. I was so confused that 'I am the victim here, why are you hitting me?' But they were not ready to believe it… I endured that for two years. It was just too much to take from relatives, my own father. I was 17 when I ran away,” she added.

Uorfi says that she left home with her sisters and found a place to live in Lucknow. She paid rent by tutoring kids and later moved to Delhi.?She, later, moved to Mumbai, lived in a PG, auditioned for roles and found small work on television.

Now she is the brand's favourite with associations with brands?Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla and Rahul Mishra.?
