Inspite of making big claims, can Bollywood ever embrace the #MeToo movement whole-heartedly? To give you some idea on this, check out the stone-faced silence of Bollywood celebs, after Tanushree Dutta gave an explosive interview where she talked about the controversial episode involving veteran actor Nana Patekar. Tanushree had been reliving this painful experience of hers in an interview to Zoom TV's Planet Bollywood. SHOCKING! Tanushree Dutta Accuses Nana Patekar of Behaving Indecently With Her in 2008; Watch Video!

To refresh your memory, the incident happened during the shoot of the 2008 film Horn OK Pleassss. Tanushree Dutta was to make a special song appearance in the film. It was to be a song solely focussed on her, however, the actress alleged that Nana Patekar insisted on being a part of the sequence, and even coaxed the choreographer (Ganesh Acharya) to add an intimate step between the two. Tanushree put her foot down to his demands and even put the shoot to halt, however, the producer, director and the choreographer were in support of Nana. She also alleged that Nana brought in MNS political workers to vandalise her vehicle leaving her scared. Tanushree Dutta Blames Akshay Kumar, Rajinikanth For Failure of #MeToo in India By Working With 'Offender' like Nana Patekar- Watch Video.

As we revisited her allegations, Janice Sequira, Anchor/Creator of Social Media Star on Firstpost, Network 18, had put up a Twitter thread with reference to this incident, In the thread, she mentioned that she was present on the sets as a reporter covering the shoot for the song and she had witnessed what happened there first-hand. Her version collaborates with what Tanushree had to say. Check out her tweets below-

Reading both the accounts, it feels really difficult to say that Tanushree is falsely accusing Nana Patekar of misbehaving with her. Back in 2008, when the scandal broke out, Nana Patekar had denied any such incident happening. In a press conference, he had said, "Tanushree is my daughter’s age and I have no clues about what made her say such things about me. I have been a part of this film industry since the last 35 years and haven’t had anyone saying such things about me ever." Now with Tanushree speaking out again about him, will more actresses step up and reveal more cans of worms? Will Bollywood really have a strong #MeToo movement? Hopes are dim but let's wait and watch!
