Tanushree
Dutta
started
the
#MeToo
movement
in
India
when
she
alleged
that
veteran
Bollywood
actor
Nana
Patekar
had
sexually
harassed
her
on
the
sets
of
their
2008
film
Horn
Ok
Pleassss.
When
at
the
launch
of
the
Thugs
of
Hindostan
trailer,
Amitabh
Bachchan
was
asked
about
the
controversy,
he'd
replied
saying
that
neither
is
he
Tanushree
Dutta,
nor
is
he
Nana
Patekar.
The
actor's
response
shocked
and
disappointed
his
fans
big
time.
Post
the
backlash,
Amitabh
tweeted
a
link
to
an
interview,
in
which
he
spoke
on
the
#MeToo
movement.
He
said,
"No
woman
should
ever
be
subjected
to
any
kind
of
misbehavior,
or
disorderly
conduct
;
especially
at
her
work
place.
Such
acts
should
immediately
be
brought
to
the
notice
of
concerned
authorities,
and
corrective
measures
be
taken,
either
through
filing
complaints
or
a
recourse
to
law.
Discipline
and
civic,
social
and
moral
curriculum,
should
be
adopted
at
a
very
early
educational
level.''
''Women
children
and
the
weaker
sections
of
our
society
are
the
most
vulnerable.
They
need
to
be
under
special
protective
care.
It
has
been
most
heartening
to
see
women
representations
in
most
work
vocations,
on
the
increase
in
our
country.
It
would
be
an
irreparable
blemish
if
we
are
not
able
to
provide
them
the
welcome
they
deserve
and
the
dignity
of
the
security
of
their
presence," he
added.
