Nana Patekar

In 2018, actress Tanushree Dutta accused veteran actor Nana Patekar of sexual harassment on the sets of the film Horn OK Pleassss in 2008.

Shakti Kapoor

In 2005, a hidden camera sting operation conducted by a news channel showed veteran actor Shakti Kapoor allegedly asking for sexual favors in exchange for a role in a film. The footage caused a huge uproar in the industry and tarnished Kapoor’s reputation.

In 2020, actress Payal Ghosh accused filmmaker Anurag Kashyap of sexual assault. Kashyap denied the allegations, calling them baseless and part of a smear campaign. The incident sparked a widespread debate on sexual harassment in the film industry.

Madhur Bhandarkar

National Award-winning director Madhur Bhandarkar was accused of rape by aspiring actress Preeti Jain in 2004. She claimed that Bhandarkar had promised her a role in exchange for sexual favors. The case dragged on for years, with Bhandarkar eventually being acquitted due to lack of evidence.

In 2018, during the #MeToo movement in India, filmmaker Subhash Ghai was accused of sexual harassment by multiple women. One of the accusers alleged that Ghai had spiked her drink and assaulted her. Ghai denied the allegations, but the scandal cast a shadow over his legacy.

Alok Nath

Known for his sanskari (traditional) on-screen image, actor Alok Nath faced multiple accusations of rape and sexual harassment in 2018. Writer-producer Vinta Nanda accused him of raping her two decades ago, which led to more women coming forward with similar allegations.
