Tanushree Dutta Counters Nana Patekar's MeToo Allegation Denial

Tanushree Dutta Reacts To Nana Patekar Comment On MeToo: Former Miss Indian Universe Tanushree Dutta made headlines in 2018 after she accused Nana Patekar of sexually harassing her during the song shoot of their 2008 film 'Horn Ok Pleassss'. The veteran actor held a press conference at that time and dismissed the allegations.

During a recent interview with The Lallantop, the Welcome star addressed the allegation again and claimed that he knew "it was all a lie".

The actor commented, "I knew that it was all a lie. That's why I didn't get angry. When everything was a lie, why should I be angry? And all those things are old. They have happened. What can we talk about them? Everyone knew the truth. What could I say at that time when nothing like this happened? Suddenly, someone says that you did this, you did that. What would I have answered to all these things? Should I have said that I didn't do this? I know the truth that I didn't do anything."

Speaking to Times Now, the Dhol actress responded to the veteran actor's 'all lie' comment on MeToo and called him a "pathological liar".

She stated, "How big a liar Nana Patekar is the whole world knows now after the Varanasi boy slapping incident during the shooting of Anil Sharma's film. Nana first tried to make it look as if slapping the kid was part of shoot and then he got severe public backlash for trying to cover up his abuse. Then he suddenly took a U-turn and apologized halfheartedly."
