MeToo: Raveena Tandon talks about workplace |
Supporting India’s #MeToo movement, Raveena Tandon says even though she has not been a victim of sexual harassment, the countless stories of ill-treatment of women anger her. The 43-year-old actor said she has been through “professional harassment” in the film industry and hence understands the trauma. Though she was never sexually harassed as she would give it back. But she could imagine the trauma that the young girls go through. It is so sad and disheartening to hear these stories. She added she has been through professional harassment. She did lose out on couple of films. There were few women journalists, who would tarnish their reputation in their magazines or newspapers. Like, from being called a liar to delusional liar, etc. They helped the heroes,Raveena concluded. Talking about her harassment experience, the actor said it was a disturbing phase as her reputation was maligned. They work in tandem to ruin an actress’s life, she added, without taking any names.The fact that many industry wives and girlfriends are silent observers or instigators, when actor husbands destroy the careers of actresses after the chase and flirtation is over or have them replaced with other potential targets.
