Shruti Hariharan accused Acting King Arjun Sarja of touching her back inappropriately and hugging her without her consent while rehearsing for a romantic sequence of bilingual flick 'Kurukshetram'. She even disclosed Arjun used to ask her to meet him after work and make comments which hurt her.
Actress Shraddha Srinath, who is making her Telugu debut with Nani's 'Jersey', came forward to support her fellow actress - 'I knew about that incident involving Arjun and Sruthi way back in November 2016 itself. When Myself and Sruthi attended a talk show over casting couch, She had spoken about the sexual harassment without mentioning names. Off camera, Sruthi had told us who is the sexual predator. Nobody should feel uncomfortable at work place''.
During the talk show, Sruthi Hariharan even disclosed that a Man touched her crotch while travelling on a bus from Bangalore to Cochin.
Condemning the allegation, Arjun informed about his plans to file a defamation suit against Sruthi Hariharan. 'I don't have the cheap mentality of using this profession to touch women inappropriately. #MeToo Movement loses value if it wasn't used for good purposes,' he said.
On the other hand, Shraddha Srinath appeals people to stand up for the victim who faces character assassinated, slut shaming or body shaming for voicing against harassment instead of remaining a silent spectator.
