Here’s what Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh have to say about Tanushree Dutta’s accusations on Nana Patekar
A lot has been going on since Tanushree Dutta allegedly accused actor Nana Patekar of sexual harassment. Even Nana Patekar’s lawyer has sent a legal notice to the actress for the false allegation. At the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit 2018, press asked Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone to comment on #MeToo movement and further asked Tanushree Dutta’s allegations of harassment against Nana Patekar.
Talking about the #MeToo movement, Deepika said, “For me, the #MeToo movement is not about gender. It is about the victory of right over wrong. “
“Anyone who faces any kind of discrimination or any sort of abuse, I think we as people must support that person. It is not about a woman or a man or about female vs men. Let’s not complicate or get confused in that conversation. I think the #MeToo should not be only about gender. It’s about right vs wrong,” Deepika added.
Ranveer Singh whi was present at that moment added that, “Harassment per se is just wrong. Harassment of anyone, women, men or any person being harassed is wrong, whether it is in the workplace, public place, street or at home. It is wrong. Right now there is something that has happened. There is all kind of speculation”.
“But if it has happened, then it takes a lot of courage for somebody to come out and speak about it. You know you have been through some very disturbing experience. It takes courage to speak publicly about it. Therefore you must consider what this person is saying… If it has happened, it is absolutely wrong and I condemn it emphatically,” Ranveer said.
