- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,January 11 2022]
For the first time, actress Bhavana took to her social media handle to break her silence on the abduction-assault case 2017, which involves actor Dileep. The actress spoke about her journey from being a victim to becoming a survivor and the trauma that she experienced.
This has not been an easy journey. The journey from being a victim to becoming a survivor. For 5 years now, my name and my identity have been suppressed under the weight of the assault inflicted on me. Though I am not the one who had committed the crime, there have been many attempts to humiliate, silence, and isolate me. But at such times I have had some who stepped forward to keep my voice alive. Now when I hear so many voices speak up for me I know that I am not alone in this fight for justice. To see justice prevail, to get wrongdoers punished, and to ensure no one else goes through such an ordeal again, I shall continue this journey. For all those who are standing with me- a heartfelt thank you for your love, wrote Bhavana on Monday.
The post went viral on social media with several celebs and fans reposting it and extending their solidarity with the survivor actress.
