And the latest actor to have been accused of sexual misconduct is Amitabh Bachchan. ‘Sajid Khan Has a Lot to Atone For,’ Says a Heartbroken Farah Khan on Accusations of Sexual Harassment Against Her Brother.
Quoting his response to the #metoo movement, Sapna said in a tweet: "This has to be the biggest lie ever. Sir the film Pink has released and gone and your image of being an activist will soon too. Your truth will come out very soon. Hope you are biting your hands cuz nails will not be enough. @SrBachchan #Metoo #MeTooIndia #comeoutwomen". Adding further, she tweeted, "Have personally heard so many stories of Bachchan’s sexual misconduct and I I hope those women come out. His hypocrisy is sooooo tired. #Metoo #MeTooIndia." #MeToo Movement in Bollywood: Mandana Karimi Accuses Kya Kool Hain Hum 3 Director Umesh Hedge and Sajid Khan of Indecent Behaviour.
"Film journalists have privately told stories of bachchan's own misconduct for years. it's one thing for those stories never to be told publicly, but the least we can do is stop pretending like we need his views on how to keep vulnerable people safe," she said in her series of tweets.

Nana Patekar, Kailash Kher, Alok Nath, Luv Ranjan, Rajat Kapoor, Vikas Bahl, Abhijeet Bhattacharya and Sajid Khan have been accused of sexual harassment by various women. Do you think anyone will speak up against Amitabh Bachchan too?
