Of course they shouldn't be forced to speak. But couldn't they at least make a statement of support? Quite a few of these celebs say something every time there is a case of abuse and harassment of a private citizen that makes the news. They don't have any reservations in standing up for what's right. They just seem very hesitant in speaking up when it's from within their own industry.

ETA: I don't think Kangana is necessarily asking for everyone to share their own metoo story. She's saying more people should speak up on the issue of harassment within the industry and talk about the problem. And I agree with that. Beyond that I'm not getting into another round of Kangna is right vs Kangana should shut up.


Since you think her intention is not to just get attention attacking Big wigs but very noble. Hope she gets what she wants.

Hope Ranbir shares his Me Too story about her indecent advances, messages and fake link up lies spread by her PR

Hope Ajay shares his Me Too story about her stalking him for sex during Rascals shoot and then going to defame him with fake affair lie in Media

She sounds a hyocrite as much as Akshay, Aamir and Ekta Kapoor were called for taking a stand. Although I agree but it's so obvious she using all this for an agenda by saying how she is the only one fighting for the movement and making the whole conversation around it, promoting herself.

And LMAO, how cleverly she dodged the question about using the movement to promote her movement and attacking people personally(Hrithik) and went on another rant about female vs male.

And yes, there's one woman who has used many men to climb up a ladder and is glorified as a feminist today.

I can't take her seriously, no matter how accurate she is able to sound. There's always an agenda behind it.

I don't know what her intentions are. All I'm saying is I agree with the content of her message.

Yes if she has indeed harassed Ranbir and Ajay they should come out and speak up. So should anyone else she's harassed.

The back and forth on this topic has not been about defending Kangana's alleged harassment. It's been about whether the accusations of harassment against are believable or not.

Whether Ranbir slept with 5 women or not, none of it comes under "Harassment". It is all consensual. I see no reason for her to talk about his or Deepika or Katrina or Alia personal life when she herself is promiscuous but also does not understand the concept of Consent. None of them went after married men.

It is like Alok Nath giving sermons now. Sorry, not buying it one bit. You shud not point fingers at others when your own hands are far more dirty.

Imo most Alisters should keep quiet. They are too dumb to comment on sexual harassment or any serious issue. They should stick to fashion and vacation. Otherwise next thing you know Alia and Varun will start tutoring victims of SH on SH.



Actually Alia spoke up several times when the documentary India's Daughter came out and I don't remember her saying anything inappropriate or idiotic. She's always all about girl power and feminism and equal rights. So her specifically being so quiet is kind of weird. Someone here actually speculated that she might be afraid of what skeletons might come out of the Bhatt closet. Either that or someone told her not to ruffle any Kapoor feathers. If Rhea Kapoor can post an I Believe Her post on her Instagram then so can an Alia or a Deepika or Anushka.

Once again we are running in circles. She never said what was being talked about on KWK was harassment. She was questioning why were people's sex lives being discussed while this major shift was taking place in the industry. Yes she did say there is glorification of a Casanova and well frankly she's right. Except that happens all over the media not just on KWK.

I think either people's anger at Kangana or their defense of their favorites is too strong here so we all keep running in circles. I'm gonna leave it at that.

Alia can speak well if she is coached. But the issue has become big now. She might face questions where she doesn't have tutored answers and might expose herself. Especially as we can see SH can have so many nuances.
Also there could be a possibility that soon one the Bhatts might get exposed or Kjo's bestie's superstar husband. So supporting someone now and not supporting the victim in the other cases will make her look like a hypocrite.
Anushka is a conformist. She is only capable of giving lectures and getting weaker people abused by the media and her fans. But beyond that she will confirm to every cliche there is.
Coming to DP she is perhaps the one who can speak up without much fear of getting caught in the wrong foot later. But she mostly doesn't use SM to air her views on all issues unlike the other two. Most of her SM is for self promotion.

No, I think not speaking up about themselves but supporting others, will label them as hypocrites..

Yes, she is asking them to support, but I am also sure that she will be the first one to attack them again, if they just support without sharing their experience.

yes lets not get into 'The Great Kangna Debate' 😆

Agree. She is not honest.

But if a dishonest person states a fact, can the fact become a lie? Sun rises in east is true, whether it is said by a thief or a cop.
Shabana speaks like a champion of woman rights. So calling her out is fine. She may or may not speak her story (if she has one) but could have voiced her opinion, supporting the movement.
KWK can be a gossip show, but a question on how female artists are treated (when two top female stars are sitting) would not have harmed the show's theme.

In general, I don't agree with the pressure mounted on actresses to share their me too story. Some journalists (like Shobha De) have their own agendas, being gossip writers.
I once read her article about how young girls are harassed. De heavily dropped hints on the girl who got harassed. That lady is now a senior actress retired from acting.
Why not hint the predator rather than the prey? Because, victim is a celebrity, whose name can sell Shobha's article. The media people who hound celebrities to open up their story are also another kind of predators. One cannot open up on their wounds, unless it is completely healed. For many, it might still hurt.

Well I feel like we are all running in circles regardning message and messenger. I'll leave it.

Why should A listers speak? Because by speaking up now they can have a bigger impact on this movement and make a bigger difference in how everyone moves forward. Even if not saying anything specific maybe say something generic in support of all the victims. It is rather surprising that some of the big names with active social media habits are keeping mum.


@bold -- Trust me.. if any A-listers speak.. there's going be chaos and social media war. The movement will be completely lost coz these stars have crazy fans. BW is a dandy place. Its better not to look for ideals and role models here coz one way or the other.. all have been party to some kaands. It does nothing for amm janta honestly.
