#MeToo: Tanushree Dutta and Vinta Nanda slam Ajay Devgn and makers of 'De De Pyaar De' for casting Alok Nath
Tanushree Dutta and Vinta Nanda reacted and bashed Ajay Devgn along with the makers of 'De De Pyaar De' for casting Alok Nath in the film.
When the trailer of De De Pyaar De was dropped earlier this month, it not only made people laugh but also fume with anger. The movie starring Ajay Devgn in the lead role has Alok Nath as a supporting character. This did not go well with the people and on social media, they even started a trend of banning the film. No action has been taken by the makers yet and even Ajay had claimed at the trailer launch that the movie was shot before he was accused.
Even the official Twitter handle of #MeToo India movement wrote, "While women continue to be disbelieved, ridiculed and shoved back into silence, men accused of sexual violence continue to find work. @ajaydevgn @itsBhushanKumar I hope you know Alok Nath has been accused of rape and an FIR filed. Disgusting that he’s part of De De Pyar De. When it came to casting someone for that role, what made it absolutely necessary to pick a man accused of violence and harassment by multiple women? Is it a message that says you don’t care? What will it take for artists to stand up in support of women who call out predators? What stopped @itsBhushanKumar from dropping him once the allegations were raised? This is incredibly disappointing and triggering for survivors who’ll inevitably chance upon the trailer and the news."
Now, Tanushree Dutta, who created a base for #MeToo movement in India, reacted on Alok Nath being a part of De De Pyaar De. Even Vinta Nanda, who accused Alok Nath of raping her also slammed the makers.
