It
has
to
be
recalled
that
when

movement
hit
the
entertainment
industry,

multiple
women
including
singers,
Sona
Mohapatra
and
Shweta
Pandit.
When
there
were
reports
that
the
makers
have
got
Anu
Malik
back
on
the
show,
Sona
had
lashed
out
at
the
channel
and
Indian
Idol
11
makers
for
rehiring
the
music
composer
and
called
out
Vishal
for
his
hypocrisy.
She
had
tweeted,
"It

Recently,
Sona
tweeted,
"SonyTV
has
a
clear
message
to
give
#India
here:
1)
We
will
support,
enable
&
celebrate
sexual
predators.
2)
We
will
ignore
the
multiple
women
&
minors
&
even
our
own
crew
from
the
show
who
shared
a
common
story.
3)
We
do
not
have
an
iota
of
humanity.
