The #MeToo movement has taken up the pace with the support from many Bollywood celebrities. It seems to be a tough time for the actress Tanushree Dutta as she seems to relive her horrors from the past. The incident which took place 10 years ago, Tanushree allegedly accused Nana Patekar for sexual harassment.

During a media interaction yesterday for the song launch of Namastey England's Proper Patola, Bollywood actors Parineeti Chopra and Arjun Kapoor spoke up for the on-going fiasco. While referring to the #MeToo movement, the actress said, "Honestly I feel This is not the start of a Me Too movement, because that would mean that there is more than one story. And I really hope this is the first and last story if this is true."

Parineeti also mentioned "Having said that, if there are any other women or actress in the industry who have been through the same thing, as I said it in my Tweet also, I want every woman to come out there and speak because if they don't speak now, they will forever be suppressed.

"Personally I've never gone through such an experience and god-forbid if it would have happened with me I would have never kept quiet. So which is why I don't feel like keeping quiet is the best solution ever, this is something very serious that has happened to anybody 'if it has happened'. I'm not taking sides as I wasn't there," added the actress.

Further Arjun mentioned about his sisters who have been working in the industry, the actor said, "As a human being and brother of my sisters, in this country I would want to feel safe Today a girl has shown courage to show the truth and if it is true, she will definitely win we need to listen first. The girl actually needs to be heard"

He also added, "That girl has come out and spoken about something that is so dreaded that you would think a million times in this country before coming out and speaking about it. She deserves to be heard, before being judgmental, before pointing fingers and before making it a debate."

As the issue is currently in debate, the filmmaker and producer Vipul Shah expressed his opinion as he said: "I believe a person who does not know the whole truth, he shouldn't pass his opinion over such issues. Because there are 2 people involved in this issue and if at all your opinion is wrong you are being unfair towards a person. I feel this should be investigated by cops on a very urgent basis."
