#MeToo best clean up act to happen: Neha Dhupia
MUMBAI: Actress Neha Dhupia says the ongoing #MeToo wave in India is the best clean up act that could have happened to Bollywood and the country in a long time.
“I think the #MeToo movement is the best clean up act that could have happened to our industry and our country in a long time. I’m glad that more and more women are talking about it and they have my full support,” Neha said to the media.
“It is high time, and people are raising their voice against such issues. There are such issues that exist and I am are glad that people are talking about it,” she added.
The #MeToo movement in India sparked when Tanushree Dutta came forward to renew allegations against Nana Patekar over an incident that happened in 2008. Since then, a number of women have come forward with complaints against names like Alok Nath, Rajat Kapoor, Subhash Ghai, Vikas Bahl, Subhash Kapoor, Kailash Kher and Sajid Khan.
The #MeToo movement began a year ago in Hollywood after The New York Times and The New Yorker published several stories about decades-long predation of movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.
