Mumbai:
Responding to the #MeToo campaign
on sexual harassment and assault started by Hollywood actor
Alyssa Milano, Bollywood actresses Konkana Sen Sharma and
Radhika Apte have come out in support of it.
Since the movement kicked off, after mass sexual assault
charges cropped up against Hollywood film producer Harvey
Weinstein, several women have started to speak about their
experiences on social media using - hashtag MeToo.
"What is nice about it is if it makes people understand
the magnitude of the problem it's good, if it helps other
people to speak up about it then that's wonderful. There
are nice things that you can achieve from this as well.
"It shows solidarity. But we have to think about
deeper ways about how to solve the problem," Konkana told
reporters on the sidelines of the Jio MAMI festival here last
night here.
Radhika, who was also present at the event, supported it,
saying, "I haven't done it (written on social media about
#MeToo) but I read about it. I do support it. It is not
disturbing, it is great that women are coming out."
Even Kangana Ranuat too extended her support to #MeToo
campaign on sexual harassment.
