Richa Chadha thanked singer
Sona Mohapatra for supporting her in a controversy wherein
Payal Ghosh had dragged Richa’s name while leveling sexual harassment allegations against
Anurag Kashyap.
“TY Sona, I fully support Ms. Ghosh’s quest for justice, it’s her right as a woman and as a citizen. Should he be found guilty after an investigation, the courts will take over. But I can’t overlook this vulgar, unwarranted personal attack on me by Ms.Ghosh, so I shall protect my name,” Richa had responded to Sona. This controversy erupted when Payal Ghosh had claimed in an interview that Anurag said actresses like
Huma Qureshi, Richa Chaddha, Mahie Gil are just a call away and would come running to "suck" his "c**k".
Sona had further penned a series of posts, talking about the sexual misconduct charges levelled by Payal Ghosh. Her tweet read, "asked by many for a pov having been at the forefront of @IndiaMeToo .Finally saw the video of Ms Payal Ghosh. I stand by her right to tell the world her experience & truth. Maligning other women publicly in the bargain basis heresay, in bad taste & wrong. (1)”
