After
a
former
employee
at
Phantom
Films
alleged
facing
sexual
harassment
by
'Queen'
director
Vikas
Bahl,
Kangana
Ranaut
too
recently
opened
up
about
being
made
feel
uncomfortable
by
the
filmmaker.
Later,
an
actress
on
the
condition
of
anonymity
revealed
how
Bahl
tried
to
forcibly
kiss
her
at
a
party.
To
add
more
to
it,
Kangana's
'Queen'
co-star
Nayani
Dixit
too
spoke
about
Bahl's
sexual
misconduct
with
her
and
her
harrowing
experience
while
working
on
'Queen'.
Recently,
actor
Rajkummar
Rao,
who
has
worked
with
Vikas
in
the
film
Queen,
opened
up
about
the
ongoing
controversy
in
an
interview
with
Huffington
Post.
The
'Stree'
actor
was
quoted
as
saying,
"It's
very
shocking
and
sad.
What
happened
was
very
unfortunate.
I
strongly
condemn
whatever
is
going
on.
What
is
wrong
is
wrong."
He
further
added,
"We
as
an
industry
should
come
together
to
protect
everyone,
be
it
men
or
women,
against
any
kind
of
harassment,
and
I
hope
and
pray
that
God
will
give
strength
to
that
girl
to
come
out
of
it
even
stronger."
Meanwhile,
Vikramaditya
Motwane
had
recently
issued
a
statement
on
Twitter
wherein
he
wrote,
"I'm
truly
sorry
about
what
happened
to
the
girl.
Vikas
Bahl
is
a
sexual
offender.
He's
preyed
on
a
young
woman,
abused
her
trust,
ruined
her
life.
The
scars
are
going
to
stay
and
that
just
isn't
right.
The
only
thing
I
can
offer
now
is
an
apology.
And
the
only
thing
I
can
say
is
that
this
will
never
happen
again
on
my
watch."
The
ongoing
#MeToo
movement
has
created
quite
a
stir
in
Bollywood
with
names
like
Nana
Patekar,
Vikas
Bahl,
Kailash
Kher,
Rajat
Kapoor,
Alok
Nath,
Abhijeet
Bhattacharya
being
pulled
up
for
sexual
harassment.
