The #MeToo movement has arose in India and Saif Ali Khan says he stands in solidarity with women sharing their stories of sexual harassment as he understands the pain they have been through.
I have also been harassed in my career, not sexually, but I have been harassed 25 years ago and I am still angry about it,” according to reports.
He added, “Most people don’t understand other people. It is very difficult to understand other people’s pain. I don’t want to talk about it because I am not important today. Even when I think about what happened with me I still get angry. Today, we have to look after women. People who have sexually harassed and abused women should pay for it.”
Further he talked about Sajid Khan and his attitude towards the women, the actor said he doesn’t remember anything or this sort happening on the sets of Humshakal, stating that otherwise, he would not have tolerated it.”I don’t remember anything like this happening genuinely because if it would have happened I would not have been comfortable in that environment or allowed it to happen in front of me.I would hate an atmosphere where women are being looked down upon or mistreated in any way. I don’t think that’s how an atmosphere should be.”
“We all need to have the same attitude. I don’t want to work with them. We have to understand that how these people are behaving, it is not OK, it is disgusting.” he added.
