Sushant
Singh Rajput has been accused of sexual misconduct by his "Kizie
Aur Manny" co-star Sanjana Sanghi. In his defence, the actor
shared screenshots of their SMS conversation and called it a "smear
campaign".
Sushant
on Friday tweeted snapshots of his conversation with Sanjana from the
first day to the last day of the film's shoot, and captioned it: "I
feel sad to reveal personal information but it seems that there is no
other way to state what was, in the midst of this curated and
well-timed smear campaign.
"From
the first till the last day of the shoot, this is what happened on
the set with Sanjana."
Sanjana
Sanghi has accused the 32-year-old actor of behaving
inappropriately on the sets of the movie, saying he made her feel
"uncomfortable" with his "overly friendly behaviour"
during the shoot in Jodhpur.
On
Thursday, Twitteratis pointed at Sushant's missing blue verification
tick on the micro-blogging platform following the claims.
However,
Sushant on Friday clarified: "For all those deliberately using
the missing of Twitter 'blue tick' to substantiate their false
claims, allow me to tell you that it is not there since September 5.
Get your facts checked before jumping to conclusions that you so
eagerly want to.
The
film's director and popular casting director Mukesh Chhabra has
spoken out in support of Sushant.
"I
totally stand by Sushant. No such incident happened on the sets and
let's not have a Twitter trial and make an innocent person suffer for
somebody else's ulterior motives. I had clarified this on twitter
long back and I still maintain it," Chhabra, who too has been
accused by a women of sexual harassment, tweeted.
The
#MeToo
movement in India started after actress and former beauty queen
Tanushree Dutta in September recalled an unsavoury episode with
veteran actor Nana Patekar from the sets of "Horn OK Pleassss"
in 2008.
