#MeToo has shaken up the patriarchy: Sushant Singh

TIL Desk Bollywood/ TV actor and CINTAA General Secretary Sushant Singh says the #MeToo movement in India has shaken up the patriarchy, adding there is a tough fight ahead as the patriarchs will not give in so easily.

“#MeToo in India — the ugliness has shaken me up. It has shaken up the Patriarchy too. The patriarchs won’t give in so easily. It’s going to become uglier. Let’s not celebrate right now, this is just the beginning. We’ve a very tough fight ahead of us. Don’t stop now, else” Sushant tweeted:

The #MeToo movement in India started after actress and former beauty queen Tanushree Dutta in September recalled an unpleasant episode with veteran actor Nana Patekar from the sets of “Horn ‘OK’ Pleassss” in 2008.

After that, a slew of controversies surrounding Vikas Bahl, Sajid Khan, Anu Malik, Anirban Blah, Alok Nath, Chetan Bhagat, Gursimran Khamba and Kailash Kher have emerged.
