The entire Tanushree Dutta-Nana Patekar controversy has not only taken the industry by storm but also brought the #MeToo movement to India.

For those who have come in late- Tanushree Dutta accused actor Nana Patekar and choreographer Ganesh Acharya of sexual harassment during the shoot of a song for the film Horn OK Pleasss' in 2008. She also pointed a finger at director Vivek Agnihotri as well.

And while the industry seems to be divided on the issue, there are some who don't want to choose a ground. However, there are some whose comments on the issue have not gone down well.

A few days back, 66 year-old Shakti Kapoor (who himself was caught in a casting couch scandal in 2005 while asking an aspiring actress for sexual favours in return to getting her into B-Town), was quoted as saying - "I don't know anything about this case. This was 10 years back, I was a kid back then."

And actor Anup Soni has slammed the actor on twitter.

Here's what Anup tweeted:


We completely get it if people from the industry do not want to pick sides. However, to make light of an issue of such magnitude is totally uncalled for. Don't you guys think so?
