Kangana Ranaut reveals she was harassed on sets but not sexually!

Bollywood actress Kanana Ranaut has been in news lately for her upcoming film ‘Manikarnika The Queen Of Jhansi’. This time she has marked a name for herself for calling out the bad in the industry instead of remaining mum, though she has been associated with certain controversies in past.

In a recent interview the 31-year-old star came out speaking about the varying forms of harassment which exist in the Indian film industry and how the term extends beyond sexual means.

“Harassment happens on many levels. So many times on sets, I wasn’t sexually harassed, but some people had ego issues. It wouldn’t come under #MeToo but it was still harassment,” she stated.

The actress went on to elaborate her stance, saying: “Things like making me wait on set for six hours, willingly giving me wrong call time to make me stand, always giving me the wrong set of dates so I’m missing out on opportunities and then canceling the schedule last minute by these heroes. Ganging up on me and not inviting me to film events, launching trailers without me and then someone else dubbed for me without even telling me, which is violating the basic right of taking permission from an actor.”

She also stressed for the need to make workplaces a safe haven for artists through modifications in policy.

“On film sets, there have to be strict rules and strict action should be taken. Things can’t be solved on a personal level or behind closed doors. Things should be taken to authority and immediate action is the need of the hour. When anyone raises concern, people, director, producer or anyone needs to solve it. We need to become more sensitive about these things,” she added further.

Kanana Ranaut is one of the highest-paid actresses of the Bollywood, she is the recipient of several awards, including three Indian National Film Awards and four Filmfare Awards. She has also been featured five times in Forbes India’s Celebrity 100 list.
