After
Vinta Nanda
and
Sandhya Mridul, another actress has come out in open accusing veteran actor
Alok Nath of harassment. Actress
Deepika Amin took to her social media accounts to share the incident that happened with her in the initial days of her career.
Taking to Twitter she wrote "Everyone in the industry knows that #AlokNath is an obnoxious drunkard who harasses women. Years ago on a telefilm outdoor shoot he tried to barge into my room. He slobbered over women, drunk and created a scene. The unit rallied around me and made sure I was safe. #metoo".
Deepika even opened up about working with Nath in Luv Ranjan's 'Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety'. She said, "But recently on the shoot of Sonu Ke Titu ki Sweety he was quiet and subdued . Maybe he has changed?Maybe because the director Luv Ranjan made it clear he wouldn’t tolerate bad behaviour.
But after reading Vinta Nanda’s heartbreaking account I felt I had to support her. BELIEVE WOMEN . They have everything to lose by speaking out. #IbelieveyouVintaNanda #metoo #Timesup".
