Swara Bhasker and Sonu Sood come out in support of protesting wrestlers: Check out the Tweets

Several Bollywood actors and Olympic medallists have voiced their support for the wrestlers protesting against Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) president Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh. The wrestlers have accused Singh of sexual harassment, and their protests at Jantar Mantar in Delhi have included top athletes like Sangeeta Phogat, Vinesh Phogat, Sakshi Malik, Bajrang Punia, and others.

Actor Sonu Sood expressed his support for the athletes on Twitter, stating in Hindi that "the sportspersons of the country will definitely win the battle of wrestling against injustice." Swara Bhasker also tweeted her support for the athletes, saying that it was "shameful" that they were forced to protest on the streets against sexual harassment while the accused BJP MP was being shielded by the government.

In a video message shared on Twitter, Bhasker questioned why the ruling party's leaders did not distance themselves from the athletes when they won medals for the country but were now maintaining distance from them during the protests. She urged people to support the wrestlers and called for the WFI president to be sacked and investigated. Bhasker also highlighted the plight of common women and victims of harassment, stating that if this was the condition of notable wrestlers, what would be the fate of regular women.

Actress Pooja Bhatt also tweeted her support for the wrestlers. Olympic medalists, including Abhinav Bindra and Neeraj Chopra, have also come out in support of the protesting wrestlers.

The allegations of sexual harassment against the WFI president highlight the need for a safe and supportive environment for all athletes, especially women, in India. It is essential that authorities take appropriate action to ensure that justice is served and that such incidents do not occur in the future. The support of Bollywood actors and Olympic medalists is vital in raising awareness about the issue and bringing about positive change.
