A female doctor of RG Kar Medical College in Kolkata was raped and murdered on the night of August 8. The people of Kolkata are outraged by this shameful incident. In the meantime, there is an uproar in the Malayalam film industry based on the report of the Hema committee. Indian Bengali movie actress Ritabhari Chakraborty made explosive comments about the Tollywood industry in this situation.
Ritabhari Chakraborty released a statement on Instagram on Monday (August 26). In it, the actress wrote, ‘The report of the Hema Commission has exposed the scenes of sexual harassment in the Malayalam film industry. This incident made me think why no such action is taken in our industry?’
Ritabhari Chakraborty writes about multifaceted hero-director, ‘Similar incidents have happened to many actresses I know. The hero/producer/director is working day after day with dirty mind and habits. They are not having any problem. Again, they are seen with candles in their hands asking for justice for the victims of RG tax.
Urging to unmask the dirty people, Ritabhari wrote, ‘Unmask all these dirty minded people. I appeal to my fellow actresses, stand up against these devils. I know, you might be afraid of losing a good role or never getting a job in the industry. But how long should we be silent?’
‘Don’t we have a responsibility to the young actresses who come to this job with dreams? They are forced to think of this place (industry) as a sugar-coated brothel (sex village)! Mamata Banerjee (Didi) We want such inquiry (like Hema Committee), complaints and changes.’ Written by Ritabhari.
Posting the statement, Ritabhari wrote in the caption, ‘No, we don’t want any more incidents of rape or harassment, before that, action should be taken seriously. No man is given the right to see us as commodities to satisfy his sexual thirst.’
