A.R. Rahman on #MeToo: Some of the names of the victims and the perpetrators have shocked me

The #MeToo movement has sent shock waves in the entire film industry. With so many well known and respected names making it to the list of alleged offenders, it’s difficult to digest that these people could have done such a thing. The movement is unmasking the facade of B-town celebrities.

While there are many celebrities who are refraining from commenting on the movement, there are also some who are coming forward to lend their support and express their opinion on the entire issue.

The Mozart of Madras, A.R. Rahman recently opened up on the #MeToo movement and has even expressed his shock over the names of the people who have been shamed on social media. Rahman shared his statement on the micro-blogging site Twitter and expressed his shock over the names of both the victims and the perpetrators.

He also expressed his concern over using social media as a new justice system. You can read his entire statement here:
