Sushant Singh Rajput Shares Screenshots of Chats With Sanjana Sanghi After Reports of His Misconduct Surface
Sushant Singh Rajput took to his recently de-verified Twitter handle and defended himself.
In the wake of the #MeToo movement, many prominent names have been accused of being the sexual predator. One of them was the popular casting agent, Mukesh Chhabra, who is turning director with the upcoming film Kizie Aur Manny, the Hindi remake of The Fault In Our Stars. Within days the movie has managed to garner another controversy. As per reports, Sushant Singh Rajput, the male lead of the film, made Sanjana Sanghi, the actress making her debut, uncomfortable on the sets.
Sushant Singh Rajput took to his recently de-verified Twitter handle and wrote, "The last thing worth doing is to defend yourself of the fiction created by an agenda. People using this much required campaign for their personal agenda is too much to ignore. So here is the text conversation with Sanjana till the time I shot for the film. I let you decide."
Along with these words, Sushant shared screenshots of his conversations with Sanjana, from which it totally seems the two shared a warm rapport.
Adding to that, the hundreds of thousands of tweets being posted on Twitter against Sushant seem to be fishy. Many of the tweets are making the same mistake of writing 'our' instead of 'out'. Many tweets are quoting the word 'normal' when that word is not used anywhere in any of the published stories reporting harassment.
All we can hope is that this #MeToo movement, which has been possible only after some women gathered all the courage in the world, is not misused. If something has happened on the sets of Kizie Aur Manny, we hope the truth comes out. But not with a PR driven campaign.
