Actress Sandhya Mridul was allegedly sexually harassed by Alok Nath, the actor who has been accused of raping 'Tara' writer/producer Vinta Nanda. Sandhya, who has worked in movies like 'Page 3' and 'Socha Na Thaa' wrote a piece on Twitter, where she recalled how Alok harassed her in drunken state.

In a recent development, the Mumbai Police has closed the investigation into the sexual harassment case of actress Tanushree Dutta, citing lack of evidence. Tanushree took Bollywood by a storm last year when she accused actor Nana Patekar of misbehaving with her on a movie's sets in 2010. Her allegations against Nana gave intensity to the #MeToo movement of Bollywood. Here are the details.

The #MeToo movement finds its strength in support, survivors believing each other and lending a shoulder. Amid all this, Preity Zinta dismissing the movement and hoping 'she was harassed' is what #MeToo doesn't need. Preity rushed to defend Bollywood, rather than supporting victims.

It's been a while when #MeToo campaign against sexual assault took over the showbiz industry across the world. Now Tanushree Dutta has opened up about being sexually assaulted a decade ago and said that no one came for her support. She alleged that actor Nana Patekar had assaulted her in 2008.

A week after Tanushree Dutta shook the nation with her revelations about sexual harassment by Nana Patekar, CINTAA has condemned the incident. CINTAA also extended their support to the actress. However, they also mentioned that despite the outcry, CINTAA cannot open Tanushree's decade-old case.

Alok Nath has now filed a defamation case against Vinta Nanda who had accused him of raping her 19 years ago. He raped her in an inebriated state. The allegations created a storm in the industry after which actresses Navneet Nishan and Sandhya Mridul also spoke about being harassed by the actor.

Tanushree Dutta's harassment allegations against Nana Patekar should have opened Pandora's Box of similar stories, but nothing much happened. Speaking about this, and drawing similarities to #MeToo movement and how it brought down Harvey Weinstein, Tanushree said we won't be able to do anything.

Pulkit Samrat has written an impressive open letter regarding Tanushree Dutta-Nana Patekar controversy. He has urged the industry to take a stand in the case as it is time to walk the talk. His reaction came after Tanushree accused Nana of sexually harassing her during a shooting in 2008.

Model-actress Kate Sharma, who had leveled charges of sexual misconduct on filmmaker Subhash Ghai, has withdrawn her complaint as she was upset with the way the case was handled. In the #MeToo storm, Kate was one of the few women who named the 'showman' to bring attention to his predatory behavior.

Amidst sexual misconduct and criminal intimidation allegations leveled by Tanushree Dutta, actor Nana Patekar has said his story should also be heard. The actor allegedly assaulted the actress on the set of 'Horn 'Ok' Pleassss'. However, Nana wants his version of this event to see the light of day
