With the Me Too movement catching up pace in India and especially Bollywood, a lot of people from the industry have become cautious and alert. The actors, directors, producers - everybody has come under the scanner, thanks to the women opening up about their harrowing experiences. Yesterday, a prominent actor stepped out of a film that was being helmed by a director who has sexual assault allegations levied against him. Though the case is subjudice, the actor has decided to not be a part of this movie.
Now, we have learnt, that another director, who is directing a project with a popular actor and a newbie, has been warned by his production house. The person in question, has been taking casting calls for a lot of films and is currently busy with his own movie. However, with a stark rise in the number of sexual harassment cases, the producer of the movie felt the need to let their director know of the consequences, if there is any complaint that is raised against him. One complaint and the director is out and his film is in jeopardy.
Needless to say, the director in question had to agree to the mandate.
