Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is happy with India
having its own #MeToo movement and the
actor Tuesday said more support and
strength should be given to the women
who are sharing their experiences of sexual
harassment.
The #MeToo movement gained momentum
in the country in the light of Tanushree
Dutta's allegations of harassment against
Nana Patekar. Many from the entertainment
industry, including Alok Nath, Rajat Kapoor,
Vikas Bahl and comedy group AIB, have
been called out for various incidents of
sexual misconduct and harassment.
"The #MeToo movement has gained
momentum in present times. The world has
got smaller with social media, one voice is
becoming larger. What is nice to see in
present time is that the members of the
media are becoming allied and propelling
voices that needs to be heard and giving
them the platform. The law of the land will
take over for justice to be served.
"It wouldn't be right to specifically comment
on individual cases as matters would be sub
judice and that would not be responsible on
our part but having said that, God bless and
strength to the voices that need that kind of
support and you all need to be there,"
Aishwarya said in an interview here.
The 44-year-old actor, who is the brand
ambassador of L'Oreal Paris, today
announced its India collaboration with
House of Sabyasachi and launched the
festive collection.
"As a team (L'Oral Paris) here, we have
always been about 'I am worth it, you are
worth it, we are worth it'. We have been
celebrating women empowerment for the
longest. Sabya very blatantly in his choices
and campaigns, he also has also. We all walk
the talk. It is not just about talking.
"We have always been about women
empowerment and we are very righteous.
We will extend our support to anyone,
appealing for support in whatever issues
that need the attention," she added.

^ Forget the black eye. Aishwarya's whole career was destroyed because of her "stand"...she is a living example of how times have changed.

In her days, she did speak up eventually...but ended up getting blacklisted and thrown out of very important projects. Nobody helped or assisted in any way. SRK was also party to this.

There was no #MeToo back then only #TooBad

But she can still lodge complaint against Salman. Actually she should. The #MeToo movement will go on to another level if she does. Doesn't matter if Salman would be arrested or not. Just imagine how much courage, empowerment, strength the Indian women will gain if she comes out now and talk in detail about every harrasment she faced at the hands of Salman Khan.


Floppy however is the biggest hidden sexual predator. Preity Zinta, Aishwarya and many others should come forward and expose floppy asap. The kind of disgusting and vulgar jokes Floppy makes with female journalists shows his cheap mentality. God knows what floppy does behind the scenes.

She should but I don't think she will because of some other factors - Amitabh 😆

Although if she wants to create an international hurricane she should go for it. Salman hasn't been punished for any of his crimes...its high time he does.

Image result for salman khan gif

AN im not making a joke out of it but Salman's image has been through must worse than apprently hitting a woman. He just has this support that is above everything. I understand Metoo is big but this man has murder convictions and i dont even think he lost endorsements. He might've even gotten more 😆
