Nana Patekar sends legal notice to Tanushree Dutta, demands apology

Mumbai, Oct 1 (HT): Actor Nana Patekar’s lawyer Rajendra Shirodhkar said on Monday that a legal notice has been sent to Tanushree Dutta, claiming that she has levelled false accusations of sexual harassment against the veteran actor. Tanushree has said in recent interviews that Patekar had harassed her during the shooting of their 2008 film, Horn OK Please and also demanded to do an intimate dance step with her.

“A legal notice has already been sent to her and she will receive it today. The notice that I have sent is a standard one — denying allegations and asking for an apology,” said Shirodkar, according to a Firstpost report. When the lawyer was informed that journalist Janice Sequeira, assistant director Shyni Shetty, and actor Daisy Shah had corroborated Tanushree’s account, he said Nana will soon hold a press conference.

“I can’t say much now. I have absolutely no idea why she (Tanushree) is talking about it now but she may be have some reasons to do it. Nana will come to town (Mumbai) today or tomorrow and address a press conference. Let him come back and talk, that is the best way to know. Tomorrow he should be definitely here,” added Shirodkar.

Earlier, speaking to the media, Tanushree had said that she is putting together a “team of lawyers and advocates” to defend herself. She had said on Saturday, “Contrary to claims made by Nana’s lawyer I have not received any legal notice. So bluffmaster gogo needs to step up his game a bit here. Instead of making empty threats to intimidate me into silence, send me a legal notice and then you will see what I will do with it!!.”

Keeping her fight alive against the veteran actor, Tanushree said “bankrupt and corrupt lawyers and advocates” were defending “serial harassers and offenders” in order to attain few seconds of fame. “Despite witnesses coming forward and all evidence in my support, I’m being subjected to criminal intimidation and harassment by Nana’s helper. I’m sure this guy has many skeletons in his closet too as birds of a feather always flock together,” said Dutta.

    Nana Patekar may testing his horn before the launch of "Horn OK Please".

    Sadly Bachchan, the brand ambassador of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s pet scheme Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao, had chided the reporter for asking a question on Tanshuree’s claims. According to Big B, said, "Neither is my name Tanushree nor am I Nana Patekar. So I don't know the answer to that question."

    Now Tanushree has lashed out at Bachchan, accusing him of hypocrisy. She told Hindustan Times that she was hurt since ‘these are people who do movies on social causes.’ She said, “But when it comes to standing up and doing something about what is happening in front of you, there are these evasive statements that don’t make sense.”

    What in Bollywood movie show the public as entertainment is the fact that go behind the screen.

    Ironically, Our film certification board and Ministry of Women and Child Development which suppose to speak on this speak maintains absolute silence.

    Jai Hind

    How many films she did as a heroin ?
    No scope and some publicity badly required.
    Nana Saab time to use your filmy dialogue:-
    ek machhar, ek machhar sali aadami ko hijada bana deta hai
    ek khatmal puri rat ko apahij kar deta hai......

    In film industry it is not an issue to make publicity.
    Settle out of court.

    Horn OK Please.
    If you ask me the fault lies in the Title.
    Not much clarity.
    You all don't worry and take sides ok ?
    Both look strong. Looks like it will be sorted out.
    OR Even this will pass.

    Yes he is missing today.
    Think he has gone to the Sets ...set 10 years back..to give his expert opinion later. Think he is restructuring the sets, scene..something which he is good at. He isnt an expert commentator for nothing.
    Coming to the title Langools.. I think Horn Ok was Ok...The 'please' was a mistake.
    You think so?
