Vinita Nanda Hasn’t Thought Of Filing A Police Complaint On Alok Nath!
When the producer and writer of the popular 90's show Tara, Vinita Nanda was asked whether she would file a police complaint on Alok Nath, she said that she hasn’t thought about it.
Noted writer and producer of the popular show Tara, Vinita Nanda, shocked everyone by accusing actor Alok Nath of sexually assaulting her. She had shared the detailed account of what she had to go through in a lengthy and heart-wrenching post on her Facebook page. Although she didn't reveal the actor's name, the usage of 'Sanskari' in her post clearly pointed at the actor Alok Nath, who is popularly known as 'Sanskari Babuji'. CINTAA had promised full support to Vinita, while Alok has neither apologised nor denied the allegation!
When
asked
as
to
what
made
her
share
the
story
after
19
years,
Vinita
Nanda
told
HT,
"It
was
important
for
me
to
speak
up
now,
in
light
of
#MeToo,
or
else
I
couldn't
carry
the
cause
forward.
I
had
been
following
posts
regarding
#MeToo
and
felt
it
was
the
right
time
to
talk.
I
am
overwhelmed
with
the
support
and
response
from
my
peers
and
the
public."
She further added, "I didn't expect it, as I had posted on my Facebook page. I woke up feeling like a new person. I am feeling relieved. If it wasn't for this environment, I wouldn't have been able to do this. If I hadn't posted, I wouldn't have understood how strong the movement is in India."
When asked as to why she refrained from naming the actor in her post, she told the leading daily, "I didn't think it was necessary to take his name. I thought 'sanskaari' was a giveaway. It was my way of revealing who he was, and there is no one who didn't understand who he was. It was in my comfort zone not to name him."
When asked whether she will file a police complaint, she said, "I don't know. I posted what happened, as I felt strongly about it. I have not thought beyond that. I have to see how it turns out and what I need to do. The priority would be to protect myself. Moreover, this is a purani baat, and I am emotionally over it. I internalised it long ago."
