The demise of Sushant Singh Rajput has raised questions on the dark side of Bollywood. Kangana Ranaut has spoken openly against the numerous blind items that allegedly targeted the late actor. She also questioned Sanjana Sanghi on why she responded so late on the #MeToo allegations on Sushant Singh Rajput during the making of Dil Bechara. The incident had apparently caused a lot of mental turmoil to the actor who has been described as a sensitive person. Sanjana Sanghi clarified after a couple of months that the allegations were baseless but many had questions as to why did she take a considerable period of time. Even Kangana Ranaut had asked those questions. Her team tweeted, "Many blinds claimed tht Sushant raped Sanjana,such news abt her harassment wr common in those days,Why Sanjana took her own sweet time to clarify?Why she nvr spoke so passionately abt her friendship with him when he ws alive? @mumbaipolice cn investigate."

In a conversation with Zoom TV, Sanjana Sanghi said, "I have said more than enough about what happened. Also, I’ve given a clarification which should have been enough. At that time, it wasn’t late, nobody is in authority to decide what’s late and what’s not. You don’t fuel rumours. It is not the responsibility or job to clarify rumours." The lady was in the US travelling when the story first broke out. Sushant Singh Rajput had to finally share screenshots to prove everything was fine in between them.

Sanjana Sanghi said calling it as a #MeToo thing was not right as nothing of that sort happened in the first place. She said, "So, we shouldn’t disregard the #MeToo movement by calling it “Me Too” because Me Too is when there’s an actual issue. But when two people are trying to say there’s no issue, that’s not called the Me Too movement that’s rumour mockery and that shows the power of unethical reporting."

She further said, "I am a student of journalism, I’ve studied at Delhi University and that’s not the journalism I was taught. So, I don’t see it as the Me Too movement. For me, apparently getting late in giving clarification for rumours, but I did it still because it was important for us, Sushant and me." Let us see how Kangana Ranaut reacts on this!
