Actor
Chitrangada
Singh
is
positive
that
the
#MeToo
movement
is
here
to
stay
for
long
and
says
change
can
happen
only
through
fear
and
for
now,
it's
working.
The
Hindi
film
industry
has
been
rocked
with
several
sexual
harassment
allegations
against
people
like
Vikas
Bahl,
Alok
Nath,
Nana
Patekar,
Sajid
Khan
among
others.
Last
year,
the
actor
had
walked
out
of
Kushan
Nandy's
Babumoshai
Bandookbaaz
which
had
Nawazuddin
Siddiqui
as
a
co-star,
as
she
was
uncomfortable
doing
an
intimate
scene.
Chitrangada
says
the
best
thing
happening
now
is
that
people
are
talking
about
the
movement.
"We
are
standing
up
to
them
and
saying
that
it's
not
ok
to
behave
like
this.
It's
very
important
what's
happening,
what
MAMI
has
done
and
how
a
committee
has
been
set
up
(by
the
producers
guild).
But
beyond
that,
it's
on
us
to
say
it's
not
ok," Chitrangada
told
PTI.
"It's
not
ok
to
be
talked,
treated
or
touched
in
a
certain
way.
This
isn't
normal.
Now
people
say
'chalta
hai',
'only
this
much
has
happened
right?
Not
a
lot?'
That
needs
to
change.
This
is
not
ok
at
all," she
added.

The
actor
says
there
is
a
change
which
has
started
happening
already
and
it's
important
for
more
voices
to
keep
coming
out.
"I
hope
the
movement
goes
on,
it
isn't
just
a
fad.
I
hope
the
media
sticks
with
it.
It's
an
amazing
thing.
There's
a
genuine
change
that'll
happen.
Because
it
was
boiling
under
for
so
long,
it
just
had
to
happen.
"Hence
I
feel
it's
here
to
stay,
otherwise
it
would've
gone.
A
lot
of
women
are
hanging
on
to
it
with
hope...The
men
who
are
wrong
should
be
(scared).
It's
about
time,"
she
added.
While
the
actor
is
happy
that
so
many
women
have
come
out,
she
says
the
movement
now
needs
the
support
of
powerful
people.
"It's
very
important
for
people
up
there,
the
powerful
ones,
to
take
a
stand
and
say
'we
won't
stand
by
people
who
are
behaving
like
this'.
That's
when
it
trickles
down.
You
set
an
example.
It'll
have
to
start
with
feat
of
certain
amount-
legal
action,
social
shaming.
"It's
towards
a
healthier
society
for
everybody,
not
just
for
a
girl.
A
man
has
to
know
it
isn't
healthy
to
behave
this
way.
We
need
to
tell
them
that.
The
whole
definition
of
normal
needs
to
change,"
she
added.
Chitrangada
will
be
next
seen
in
"Baazaar"
co-staring
Saif
Ali
Khan.
Directed
by
Gauravv
Chawla
and
written
by
Nikkhil
Advani,
the
crime-drama
is
scheduled
to
release
on
October
26.
