Another Addition to #MeToo case in India
As soon as Tanushree Dutta starts the #MeToo campaign in India, when she accused Nana Patekar, many other celebrities also started sharing their experiences. Previously Kangna Ranaut accused Vikas Bahl in support of another woman. Vikas Bahl also tried many attempts to ‘Queen’ star Nayani Dixit. She admitted that Vikas Bahl tried to get close to her many times and in support of Kangna and other women, she added that his behavior was inappropriate with her.
The Phantom Films is dissolved now and everyone is bashing Vikas Bahl. Though till now Vikas Bahl didn’t say a word about the incident.
During all this, some other victims also got a chance to say. Eventually, have taken to social media to talk about their assault. From actors to a comedian or a journalist victims are not holding back. Hence they are expressing their damage with bravery.
Similarly among the predators list is now singer Kailash Kher. Hence the singer is been accused of sexual harassment by a photojournalist. Natasha Hemrajani on her twitter thread elaborate on the whole incident. She went to his house for an interview with her colleague journalist. He tried to touch their thighs and made them uncomfortable.

I was sent with my colleague, a woman journalist, to take pictures of Kailesh Kher at his home for an interview. During the interview, this creep sat between us as close to us as he could. He also kept putting his hands on our thighs (on the skin above our skirts)— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
In addition to accused cases, Kailash Kher says he don’t remember any act. However, he also offered an apology for his unintentional act.
She further stated another incident with her in 2006. Whereas she accused model Zulfi of sexual harassment. Take a look on her twitter thread below.

We were appalled & left as soon as possible. I discussed with my colleague the idea of writing the interview from the point of view of unwelcome sexual molestation but she said the paper would never publish it because it would be libel (even if we were both witnesses)— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(4)#MeToo
I’ve let a number of friends and colleagues know about this incident with Kailesh Kher and the main reaction is always a shaking of the head, and ‘this happens, as a woman you’ve got to look after your own self’ logic / expression.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(5)#MeToo
The near sexual assault episode with Zulfi Syed occurred on a cruise liner. A bunch of press photographers, journalists, models and people were invited on board overnight as a PR exercise. I was there with a woman colleague to shoot the entire event.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(6)#MeToo
In due course of the evening, we got talking with the models amongst whom Zulfi and me sort of hit it off. My colleague and I formed a group along with Zulfi and a couple of other models and we moved about the cruise ship sampling the bars, cabaret club and diners.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(7)#MeToo
At some point while looking at the rooms the models had been given to stay in, I ended up leaving my phone to charge in Zulfi’s room. After dinner and some dancing, my colleague was sleepy and left. So did the other models and I was alone with Zulfi on the ship deck— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(8)#MeToo
He kissed me, I kissed him back, I decided I didn’t want to take this any further and said so, and that I was going to bed. I remembered I’d left my phone charging in his room so I asked him if I could collect it. He agreed and we walked down the ship to his room.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(9)#MeToo
I entered the room and took my phone, it was by the bed. Zulfi shut the door & leaned against it. I asked him why he’d shut the door, he said we both knew I wasn’t going anywhere and that I hadn’t really come to his room for the phone. I said I’d only come for my phone— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(10)#MeToo
I walked up to the door to leave. He was standing right there, he grabbed me as soon as I reached for the handle, shoving me against the door and forcibly kissing me. I struggled and said I didn’t want this but he wouldn’t stop. I realised I was extremely vulnerable.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(11)#MeToo
There was nobody outside in corridor, no one would hear me scream, he was physically overpowering me & wouldn’t stop and I did not want to become a victim of sexual assault. I had to strategise to get away so I stopped fighting him off. Instead, I made myself hold him.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(12)#MeToo
I said hey okay, why don’t we do this properly on the bed. He backed off smiling. As soon as there was a window of a gap in his hold on me I wrenched the door open and ran down the empty corridor with my heart racing, feeling any second I would be dragged back by him.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(13)#MeToo
I reached the room I shared with my colleague, banged on the door. She let me in, saw my panic, asked me what happened. I told her the whole story & also told her we should report it. She asked me-why did I have to go to his room alone? I repeated, we should report it.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(14)#MeToo
But we both knew the paper would not publish it. Nothing would be done; I would be blamed for encouraging his attention. I learned at this point that women have to be vigilant all the time. Nobody would call out the men. The next day Zulfi apologised to me on the deck.— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
(15)#MeToo
He said it was just a misunderstanding and he hoped I wouldn’t make a big deal of it. I have spoken about both these incidents with colleagues and friends and they are always met with that headshake & ‘what to do’ expression. Until now. #MeToo@weeny@AGirlOfHerWords— Natasha Hemrajani (@radiantbear) October 6, 2018
Therefore the bravery and confidence of the victims are going in the right direction. In other words, Tanushree Duta takes a right step forward after she accused Nana Patekar. Because of her, other women also got a chance to speak up for their right. Ultimately now every man will think hundred times before humiliating women.
