Alok Nath ‘neither agrees nor disagrees’ with veteran producer-writer’s rape allegation
A veteran writer-producer accused actor Alok Nath of rape and sabotaging her career. She shared her disturbing account on Facebook on Monday. CINTAA and many faces from TV and film fraternity have extended their support to the writer. Now, Alok Nath has come to the forefront to speak on the issue. Speaking to ABP News, Mr Nath has said he 'neither denies not agrees' with the producer-writer, that someone else must be the rapist, and that there was no point reacting to the abuse allegations because 'only what a woman says will be considered.' He also claimed that he 'made (producer-writer) what she is' and that dismissed the public shredding of his 'sanskaari' image as 'people will say anything.'
Alok Nath, thought to be the actor who raped and brutalised the producer-writer 19 years ago, "Neither I am denying this nor do I would agree with it. It (rape) must have happened, but someone else would have done it. Well, I do not want to talk much about it as for the matter if it has come out, it will be stretched... We only have to hear to women's stand because they are considered weak."
"He was an alcoholic, shameless and obnoxious but he was also the television star of that decade, so not only was he forgiven for all his bad behaviour but many of the guys would egg him on to be his worst," the writer-producer wrote about Alok Nath's bad behaviour on the sets of Tara.
Alok Nath said he is not affected with what people will say after being accused of sexual violation. He even went on to say that he was responsible for the writer-producer's success
