Mumbai: Actor Munmun Dutta, who plays Babita in the hit comedy series Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, recently took to Instagram to join the #MeToo movement.
Expressing solidarity with the women who have come forward to share their experiences, the actor wrote, "Writing something like this brings me to tears reliving those memories as a little girl when I was scared of the neighbourhood uncle and his prying eyes who at any given opportunity would grope me and threaten me not to speak about this to anyone ..... OR my much older cousins who would eye me differently than their own daughters .... OR the man who saw me at the hospital when I was born and 13 years later he thought it's appropriate for him to touch my body because I was a growing teenager and my body had changed.... OR my tuition teacher who had his hands in my underpants ....... OR this another teacher , whom I tied Rakhi to, would scold the female students in the class by pulling their bra straps and slapping on their breasts .... . OR that man in the train station who gropes U."
She also asked the 'good' men to speak to the women in their lives about their sexual harassment experiences and support them.
