Actor Mallika Sherawat did not hold back when a Twitter user called her film responsible for the rising acts of sexual violence against women. Mallika was left baffled and angry at the comment and pointed out that such mentality needs to be changed. 

The Twitter user's comment was in response to Mallika's tweet about the Hathras rape case. She had written, "Unless india reforms it’s medieval mindset towards women nothing will change #HathrasHorror #NirbhayaCase." 

Replying to her tweet, the Twitter user wrote, "But the kind of roles you have played in Bollywood movie contradict your statement. Don’t you thing the kind of message you deliver through your movies also play an important role. Improvement should start from the person who is making the statement first."

To this, Mallika replied saying, "So the movies I act in are an invitation for rape!!! It’s mentality like yours that make Indian society regressive for women! If you hv a problem wt my movies then Don’t see them #nocountryforwomen."

Earlier, in an interview in 2018, Mallika had said that she had to lose out on multiple films as she refused to get intimate with her co-stars off-screen. 

She told PTI, "There were so many accusations and judgments on me. If you wear short skirts, kiss on screen then you’re a fallen woman with no morals. Men tend to take liberties with you. This happened with me too." 

She added, "I was thrown out of projects because heroes would say 'why can’t you be intimate with me? You can do it on screen, what’s the problem in doing that with me in private?' I’ve lost so many projects. It’s very reflective of society, what women deal with, in our country."
