Anurag Kashyap’s ex-wife Kalki Koechlin comes out in his support amidst the #MeToo allegations leveled against him

Anurag Kashyap has been grabbing headlines these days after he was accused of sexual harassment by actress Payal Ghosh. After Anurag’s first wife Aarti Bajaj came out in support of him, the filmmaker’s second wife Kalki Koechlin has also stood up for him and called him a fighter for women.

Kalki took to her Twitter handle and wrote, “Trolls toh troll karenge (trolls will troll)” and shared a note that read, “Dear Anurag, don’t let this social media circus get to you, you have fought for the freedom of women in your scripts, you’ve defended their integrity in your professional space as well as in your personal life. I have been witness to it, in the personal and professional space you have always seen me as your equal, you have stood up for my integrity even after our divorce, and you have supported me when I felt unsafe in a work environment even before we got together.”

“This strange time where everyone gets to abuse one another and make false claims without any repercussions is a dangerous and repulsive one. It is destroying families, friends and countries. But there is a place of dignity that exists beyond this virtual blood bath, a place of paying attention to the needs of those around you, a place of being kind even when no one is looking, and I know you are very familiar with that place,” she wrote further.

Well, apart from Kalki, Anurag’s first wife Aarti had also come out in his support. In a post on her Instagram handle, Aarti wrote, “First wife here✋?.. You are a Rockstar @anuragkashyap10. Keep empowering women as you do and the safest place you create for all of them. I see it first hand with our daughter. There is no integrity left and the world is full of losers and no brains baying for blood of anyone who has a voice. If everybody spends the energy which they use in hating others constructively this world will be a better place.(sic)”
