Aishwarya Rai Bachchan also said that there is no right or wrong time to call out the guilty
Tanushree Dutta has motivated several women and has started a #MeToo movement in India.
With the campaign gaining momentum, actors, directors, producers and others are opening up about their heart-wrenching experiences of sexual misconduct and physical abuse.
Several celebrities, including Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhaskar, Twinkle Khanna and Priyanka Chopra, among others have come out in support of the movement and the survivors.
The latest star to join the parade is none other than one of the most celebrated actress' of the Hindi film industry, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
It doesn't end here. The actress also spoke about her abusive relationship, where she said, “I have always spoken out. I spoke in the past, I am speaking now, and I will continue to speak.”
The actress also credited social media for enabling women to voice their stories.
"Social media has enabled the conversation and any woman who comes from any part of the world today has a voice that will be heard,” she said at the launch of L'Oreal Paris X Sabyasachi, Calcutta.
Aishwarya also went on to say that there is no right or wrong time to share such stories and call out the guilty.
“When it comes to helping women find their voice, find the strength, feel confident about sharing their stories, it’s not about the current time. This has been going on since a lot of time and I am glad it has found a certain momentum today," she added.
In 2002, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan had accused Salman Khan of cheating and misbehaving with her.
On the alleged physical abuse, she had then said, "After we broke up, he (Salman) would call me and talk rubbish. There were times when Salman got physical with me, luckily without leaving any marks. And, I would go to work as if nothing had happened."
Aishwarya and Salman reportedly started dating while shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam.
