#MeToo: Niharika Singh accuses Nawazuddin Siddiqui of sexual harassment

#MeToo movement might have slowed down in the recent days, but it has exposed a side of Bollywood, which has shaken many people. From Nana Patekar, Sajid Khan, Alok Nath, Vikas Bahl, many prominent film personalities have been named and shamed for their alleged sexual misconduct at the workplace.

This is her side of the story.”

The revelations made by Niharika Singh against Nawazuddin Siddiqui, if proven true paints a very sorry picture of Bollywood. Nawazuddin has won many accolades for his acting, but if these allegations are correct then the ‘Manto’ actor has a lot of soul searching to do.
