It has changed the way people look at things: Housefull 4 actress Kriti Sanon supports MeToo movement against Sajid Khan

Producer Sajid Nadiadwala's forthcoming comic caper Housefull 4, starring Akshay Kumar, Bobby Deol, Riteish Deshmukh, Kriti Sanon, Kriti Kharbanda and Pooja Hegde, was wrapped up on November 20 last year. However, it was mired with controversies since the past few months. In October, filmmaker Sajid Khan stepped down as its director after he was accused of several sexual harassment incidents. He was replaced by Farhad Samji.

Now a few months after the entire fiasco, actress Kriti opened up on the MeToo movement against Sajid and stated that it has changed the way people look at things. Stating that it is the it is the greatest thing to happen to the film industry in a long time, she told a leading daily, "Now there’s fear that if you do something wrong, you can’t get away with it. I don’t know how much justice the survivors have got because sadly, there’s only so much you can do to prove your point because a lot of harassment is verbal, without witnesses around. Also, many fingers were pointed anonymously."

Kriti further added, "It’s understandable if a survivor doesn’t want to come out with allegations in public, but the cops and judiciary need to know their identity. Having said that, I’m glad #MeToo happened and shook things up."

For the unversed, veteran actor Nana Patekar was also replaced by Rana Daggubati since the former was accused of sexual misconduct by actress Tanushree Dutta on the sets of 2008 film Horn OK Pleassss.

Housefull 4 will release in Diwali 2019.
