The #MeToo movement which gained momentum in India a couple of months ago when Bollywood actress Tanushree Dutta accused directors Nana Patekar and Viveka Agnihotri of sexual misconduct, saw several women coming out to name sexual predators in the entertainment industry. Singer Chinmayi, among many others, relentlessly defended the victims and shared her personal encounters as well.

Padmaavat actress Aditi Rao Hydari has now come forward with her #MeToo experience and added how she lost all hope on finding work again when it happened. She disclosed this during her speech at the India today Conclave South 2018 in Vishakapatnam on Friday. “I remember when I started, I was extra-naive because I came from a protected background. I didn’t know that the rumours were true, that things like this did happen. And honestly, I have not had such a bad time. I had one incident which actually didn’t harm me very much. But yes, I did lose work because I was given a choice - it’s either this or this. For me, it was a no-brainer. I had to walk away,” she said. Apparently, she found work after 8 months with the support of her team.

Aditi recently posted a tweet calling out the hypocritical people in the industry who were "clearly" guilty of sexual harassment coming out to speak in support of the #MeToo movement. The names of the abusers weren’t mentioned, though.
