Supporting #MeToo movement, Amaal said, "I support the movement and I'm completely with it. What happens is, when people talk on social media, it goes a little wrong. When you have alleged someone and taken their name, you should drag it to the court and through the judicial system, try to achieve what you want to achieve. Because if you don't take it ahead then why did you even do this in the first place."
Amaal also stated that the social media platforms and media trials is not the limit where one should stop at and take case forward to its logical conclusion. It's a known fact that Amaal is a close friend of singer Sona Mohapatra. "I'm close to Sona Mohapatra, if she has said about Anu Malik there must be a reason. And if there is a reason they should move to the court," he concluded.
