Tanushree Dutta is upset with Farah Khan and Priyanka Chopra
Bollywood celebrities are coming out in support of former beauty queen and actress Tanushree Dutta, who has made serious allegations against veteran actor Nana Patekar. Tanushree claimed that the National Award-winning actor misbehaved with her on the sets of 2008 film Horn OK Please. Later on a journalist wrote series of tweets saying that she was the eye-witness of the incident. Thereafter, several Bollywood celebrities including Sonam Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Anurag Kashyap, Farhan Akhtar have raised their voice ins support of Tanushree.
However, the former actress is not pleased with Priyanka's tweet in which she wrote, ''Agreed..the world needs to #BelieveSurviviors''. In an interview with Zoom, Tanushree said that she has a name and she should not be reduced to a survivor. ''Well, it’s amazing. She ( Priyanka) has finally decided to join the bandwagon. It’s probably a smart thing to do at this point of time. But I just want people to know that I am not going to be reduced to a survivor. I have a name, I have a story and I have this truth that I am trying to get out because it’s not for me but for people who will come forward in the generations to come,'' she said.
Tanushree's spokesperson also said that she is upset with Farah Khan's post. The director has shared a photo with Nana Patekar, Kriti Sanon among others with caption, ''Taking the “ not so private charter” flight to jaisalmer.@kritisanon A very excited @hegdepooja @rimpleandharpreet n 4 1 st time on insta Nana Patekar( where is @chunkypanday ) @aasifahmedofficial @adrianjacobsofficial n 1 innocent bystander''.
''Farah’s Instagram post has appalled her. Being a woman herself, Farah has made her stand very clear by going ahead with Nana for the Housefull shoot,'' the statement read.
