Bhubaneswar: Several voices tweeted in support of model-turned-actress Tanushree Dutta, when she heralded the #MeToo movement in Bollywood with sexual harassment charges against veteran actor Nana Patekar. Now, Kangana Ranaut has accused her Queen’s director, Vikas Bahl, of sexually harassing her on the sets of the 2014 film.
Odisha Bytes spoke to a few Odia cine stars to know their views on this sensitive yet very important issue as allegations of casting couch rear its ugly head time and again across all film industries.
Tapas Sargharia: This kind of incident is no less than a trauma for a girl. If the allegations are true, let police investigate the matter and punish the guilty. Before that, the matter should not get glorified in media. It is disheartening that people do not understand the seriousness of the issue and watch it as another entertainment story.
