In a new interview with an Indian publication, veteran actor Nana Patekar addressed Tanushree Dutta’s allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct during the song shoot of his film “Horn, ok, please” in 2008.

“I knew it was all a lie. That’s why I didn’t get angry. If it was all a lie, why should I be angry?” he told the interviewer.

The ‘Welcome’ star explained: “And all these things are old. They happened. What can we say about them? Everyone knew the

Truth. What could I have said back then when nothing like that happened? Suddenly someone says you did this, you did that. What would I have said in response to all those things? Should I have said I didn’t do that? I know the truth that I didn’t do anything.”

For the ignorant: ‘Dhol’ The actress started the MeToo movement in India in 2018 when she accused Patekar, choreographer Ganesh Acharya and director Vivek Agnihotri, among others, of sexual harassment during filming.
