Tanushree Dutta and Nana Patekar's sexual harassment row is getting new layers with each new tweet. Tanushree alleged that Patekar sexually harassed on the sets of 2009 film Horn Ok Please during the shoot of the song. However, Nata Patekar refuted the allegations saying that he will take a legal action against her. However, post her allegations, many Bollywood celebs have united for this #MeToo movement. Now, the then Assistant Director of the film, Shyni Shetty has spoken up, backing Tanushree's statements.

Journalist Janice Sequeira shared a thread of tweets where she revealed that she was present on the sets while the song was shot. Replying to her tweets, the AD of the film wrote, "Everything in this thread happened exactly the way it's written. It was my first film as an AD. I was proud of what you did then, @TanushreeDutta and I'm proud of you today."

When she was asked about her own experience on the set, she told Firstpost, "This was my first film, and Nana was very sweet to me and was very helpful. Before I came on board the film, I heard all these stories about how he has a temper and how he's very difficult to handle, but he was very nice to me. He told me where to give the clap, when the lens was wide, and things like that. My director, choreographer and first AD were also very helpful. Nobody ever made a pass at me."
