Tanushree Dutta's pleas for the Hindi film industry to raise its voice in her support seem to have finally fallen on the right ears.
After the actress made her charge against veteran actor Nana Patekar, director Rakesh Sarang, and choreographer Ganesh Acharya of misbehaving with her on the sets of Horn OK Pleassss (2009), and later Chocolate (2005) director Vivek Agnihotri, several members of the film industry have stepped out in support of the actress.
After actor-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar and actresses Swara Bhasker, Richa Chadha and Priyanka Chopra spoke up, several directors and artistes have also been emboldened to step up and voice their support for the actress.
Actress Sonam K Ahuja, daughter of Patekar's contemporary Anil Kapoor, took to Twitter to support the statements issued by film journalist Janice Sequiera and Dutta, stating that 'it is up to us to stand together'.
With these statements, the support, at least online, for the actress seems to be growing. Whether this would translate into real action is moot.
