"We want to create a fear psychosis so that no one even dares to think about misusing his or her power. At the same time, we want to listen to the other party as well. So, we will give them time to respond. If they fail to respond, our workers will not work with them," he said.
The #MeToo movement gained momentum in India after Tanushree Dutta accused Nana Patekar of harassment. Following Dutta's revelation, many others from the media and the entertainment industry came forward with their stories of sexual harassment.
