A US-based actress and model, Katherine Filaseta has come out in open to reveal an incident of sexual abuse by noted filmmaker and actor, Rajat Kapoor. In the wake of this #MeToo movement gaining momentum in India, Katherine felt it was time she revealed the episode of her harassment and join the powerful movement that's not restricted to Hollywood anymore.

In her Twitter post, she wrote, are we finally #metoo-ing Bollywood bc like I gave my business card out to a director thinking I was making a professional connection and then got called 17 times the next day and then confronted irl and cursed out for not answering the married creep’s calls coughrajatkapoorcough. The message she was trying to put across was quite loud and clear. When she didn't receive any of his 17 calls, the 'married creep' as she likes to tag him, confronted her in real life and even cursed her for the same. Yes, it's a case of misconduct but Twitterati is still wondering if this episode can be tagged as unprofessional or sexual harassment!
