Former Miss India and Bollywood actress Tanushree Dutta has spoken out yet again about being harassed by #metoo perpetrators. Taking to her Instagram account, Dutta said that she is being ‘targeted very badly’ and went on to describe her painful experiences. In the post, she claimed that the Bollywood mafia and some political circles attempted to poison her and sabotaged several of her works.

Back in 2018, Tanushree stirred headlines by making severe allegations against some high-profile and famous Bollywood celebrities when the Me Too movement picked up speed in the Indian film industry.

Without naming anyone, Dutta shared a few horrifying encounters she had in recent times and also asked for help in the post. The actor also said that artists are being troubled in Maharashtra and that the state has become unsafe for people. "The Bollywood Mafia, the old political circuit of Maharashtra (which still has influence here) and nefarious anti – national criminal elements together usually operate like this to trouble people. I’m very sure the #metoo culprits & the NGO who I exposed are behind all this because why else would I be targeted & harassed like this??" She wrote in her post.

She also alleged that choreographer Ganesh Acharya and filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri subjected her to mental and physical harassment.
