Saif Ali Khan: #MeToo Is a Good Start Because People Will Now Think 20 Times Before Misbehaving

Saif Ali Khan is the latest celebrity to have commented on the ongoing #MeToo movement in India. Not just Bollywood, but victims of sexual harassment from all spheres have come forth to share their story exposing the predators. Talking about Saif, in an interview with Mumbai Mirror, the actor said, "Women finding a voice in the film industry is important as we’ve always been considered liberal. I want the industry to be safe for all sexes. I don’t like bullying, it’s disgusting! It’s never been there in my world and I want to see it gone. #MeToo is a good start because people will now think 20 times before misbehaving." #MeToo in Bollywood: Vicky Kaushal's Father Shyam Kaushal Accused of Sexual Harassment.
