When
Asked
Why
Amitabh
Bachchan
Is
Silent
On
#MeToo
"They
are
considering
it
a
controversy,
not
a
revival.
You
wait
for
it
to
pass
over
-
when
you
consider
it
a
controversy.
I
was
on
national
TV
10
years
ago
for
three
days
-
I
had
a
lot
to
lose
back
then.
I
was
moving
to
better
and
bigger
projects
back
then.
I
had
so
much
to
lose.
But
I
was
put
in
a
situation
because
I
was
subjected
to
it.
I
had
to
defend
myself.
I
wanted
to
speak
to
protect
myself
from
the
damages.
But
the
whole
thing
blew
over," said
Tanushree
Dutta
at
Aaj
Tak
Manthan
2018
in
Mumbai.
Big
Stars
Are
Uncomfortable
With
The
#MeToo
Movement
"They
[big
stars]
are
uncomfortable;
some
of
them
are
complicit.
A
lot
of
people
don't
have
my
phone
number
[to
ring
me
up].
Some
people
have
come
forward
on
social
media
to
provide
support;
some
have
taken
a
stand
by
not
working
with
the
perpetrators.
I
am
not
on
social
media
so
I
escape
reading
that
kind
of
stuff
[the
backlash].
But
I
am
also
aware
of
the
encouragement
I
am
receiving."
Tanushree's
Reply
To
The
People
Who
Say
'She's
Doing
It
For
Attention'
"I
spent
the
last
eight
years
on
a
spiritual
path.
I
don't
feel
lonely
now.
It
was
harder
10
years
ago.
I
needed
this
platform
10
years
ago.
If
I
had
it
10
years
ago,
I
wouldn't
have
walked
away
from
my
passion.
Today,
people
are
listening
today.
Der
aaye,
durust
aaye."
The
#MeToo
Movement
The
#MeToo
movement
has
taken
the
country
by
a
storm
and
a
lot
of
people
are
coming
out
and
naming
their
harasser
publicly.
Going
by
how
the
movement
is
picking
up
steam,
it
looks
like
there
are
many
more
skeletons
that
would
tumble
out
of
the
closet
pretty
soon.
