Bengaluru: Sandalwood actor Jaggesh and actress Harshika Poonacha openly questioned the motive behind #MeToo movement in the industry.
Jaggesh spoke in support of actor Arjun Sarja, while Harshika targeted actresses using their femininity as a tool for publicity on her Facebook wall by dubbing their effort “#metooforpublicity”.
Jaggesh told that Sarja is a simple man just like Dr Rajkumar and Dr Vishnuvardhan. He is very polite and well behaved actor.
I stand for women but I also feel that Shruti would should have raised the issue when the incident took place.
Harshika Poonacha condemned the actors who are raising their voice against the issue after so many days.
In a Facebook post, Harshika wrote, “Most of these so called activist actresses do everything when they badly need a push in the initial stages of their careers (get cast in good films, make money, network, travel, luxurious life etc).
“By giving all the freedom to these men, they now accuse (them) for publicity. They start targeting the same men (with whom) they were smiling and walking hand in hand! I personally have seen these so called great activist actresses smoking ganja, having a great time in their song shoots in foreign countries, falling on famous men (actors from other industries, producers, real estate barons etc at big award functions in Malaysia, Dubai, Singapore etc) and doing things that I do not want to mention here.”
