#PayalGhosh & #MeToo 
I won't comment on @iamPayalGhosh’s allegations of sexual assault against @anuragkashyap72 as that is something he will have to deal with.
I will, however, say that I stand with #PayalGhosh's right to call out her perpetrator.

But...
...I have a problem when, in her video statement, #PayalGhosh herself assaults and maligns 3 other women... When, in her narration of the incident, she states a few baseless things abt @RichaChadha @MahieGillOnline #HumaQureshi as if they were facts...
I, like many other women, have been engaged wt the #MeToo movement since 2018, and especially since @mjakbar was accused of serial sexual assault by several women, including me, and when he decided to sue #PriyaRamani for defamation...

I was also engaged with #Metooindia 
when a woman officially complained to #vidhuvinodchopra @anupamachopra & others at @VVCfilms abt @RajkumarHirani sexually abusing her over a period of time while she was working on a film with him...

Thanks to #MeToo , thousands of women have had the courage to open up abt their sexual assault/abuse, many have found strength through it to share gut-wrenching details of their incident/s, their trauma, and the physical, emotional, financial toll it took on them...

But no woman who has been sexually assaulted and has spoken out has maligned other women in the insensitive, crass and irresponsible way that @iampayalghosh has done.
While talking of her sexual assault in her video statement, #PayalGhosh's focus seems to be a lot on
* projecting herself as a woman of greater morals than other women who have worked with @anuragkashyap,
* and tarnishing their hard-earned reputations...

@RichaChadha @MahieGillOnline #HumaQureshi are actresses who have, with their hard-work and talent, not just made a space for themselves in a male-dominated film industry, but have charted their own course.
In her statement, #PayalGhosh also comments on their looks.

In her video statement, @iampayalghosh mentions @RichaChadha @MahieGillOnline & #HumaQureshi twice.
1st she quotes what @anuragkashyap allegedly said to hr abt them (it's too vulgar&sexist to b repeated), & thn she quotes what she said 2 @anuragkashyap, abt their looks

#MeToo is a movement that has given power to women across the globe as one has passed on the baton to another by breaking their silence about their sexual abuse & calling out their perpetrator/s.

#MeToo has given courage to not just women, but also men who have suffered at the hands of men with power.
Men & women who have paid a heavy price for just wanting to work have found a voice through #MeToo

#MeToo is nt a movement 4 women to elevate themselves as chaste while calling other women dishonourable—women they have neither met nor spoken wh, women whose truth they don't know.
#MeToo is a sisterhood.
#MeToo is not a virtue signalling movement.

Whatever may be #PayalGhosh’s truth, there's only dishonour in hr assault on the good name & reputations of 3 other women.
While I stand wt @iampayalghosh's right to call out hr perpetrator, I stand firmly against her when she assaults @RichaChadha @MahieGillOnline #HumaQureshi.
