The #MeToo that started in the west also found its way to India in 2018 outing several names from the show business. It was a major moment that spoke about the harassment faced by individuals by people in power in the show business. Bollywood actress Sonali Bendre recently spoke about the movement and the role of journalists during a conversation on Mid-day`s The Bombay Film Story.
While Sonali is glad that the moment took place, she said that she would respect it more had it been happening across professions. "Me Too movement has two aspects. I`m glad that the Me Too movement did start but what about other professions. I genuinely believe that we are so much in the public eye that the me too, in that sense is so much more curtailed here than it is in professions that you don`t even know. You don`t talk about it the police officers, you don`t talk about it in the lawyers or in the courtrooms, you don`t talk about it in the corporate world. Yes, they`re powerful people," she said.
