'I'm Being Followed... Harassed Since #MeToo Allegations,' Claims Tanushree Dutta After Break Down Video
Tanushree Dutta left the internet worried after she posted a distressing video claiming that she has been harassed in her own house. Now, Tanushree, in an exclusive conversation with News18 India, opened up about what she has been facing over the years since she made #MeToo allegations against veteran actor Nana Patekar.
Tanushree Dutta made headlines first back in 2018 when she accused Nana Patekar of sexual harassment on the sets of the film Horn Ok Please. She shared that while being on the sets of the 2008 film, Nana made unwanted advances towards her. Now, while talking to us, she revealed that ever since then, she has been facing 'suspicious activity" around her.
'I've been followed constantly. I've been harassed. A maid was planted in my house to spy on me," she alleged.
The actress also revealed that she intends to approach the police regarding recent incidents, but also said that she has no wish to reopen the MeToo case. 'I'm not trying to reopen the old case. I only want action on the new incidents that are endangering my safety," she added.
'Ever since I spoke up against Nana Patekar, I've been followed wherever I go. My career has been destroyed," she concluded.
What happened to Tanushree Dutta?
On Tuesday night, Tanushree Dutta took to her Instagram handle and dropped a video in which she claimed that she is being harassed by her family. In the video, Tanushree was seen visibly distressed as she considered taking action against her family members.

'I am being harassed in my own home. Mujhe mere hi ghar mein pareshaan kiya jaa raha hai. I just called the cops. They came and asked me to come to the police station to lodge a proper complaint. I will probably go tomorrow or the day after. I am not well. Mujhe itna pareshaan kiya gaya hai pichle 4 to 5 saalon mein," she said.
The actress further revealed that her health condition has also deteriorated significantly due to the ongoing stress and added, 'Meri tabiyat kharab ho gayi hai. Main kuch kaam nahi kar paa rahi hoon. Mera pura ghar messy ho chuka hai. I cannot even hire maids because they planted maids in my house. I had such a bad experience with maids. They came and stealing stuff from my house. I have to do all my work. I am being troubled in my own house. Please someone help me."

Lindsay Lohan On Hollywood Stereotyping And Paparazzi Trauma: ‘I Have Extreme PTSD'
Curated By : Last Updated: August 03, 2025, 11:53 IST Lindsay Lohan spoke about battling PTSD from relentless paparazzi attention. Lindsay Lohan is opening up about the long-lasting impact of fame and how Hollywood continues to limit her as an actor, despite decades in the industry. Speaking to The Times UK ahead of the release of her upcoming film Freakier Friday, the sequel to the 2003 hit Freaky Friday, the 39-year-old star spoke candidly about the pressures of fame, being stereotyped, and her decision to leave Hollywood behind for good. Lohan revealed that she still finds it difficult to land diverse roles, often being cast in similar characters despite proving her range. 'Yeah, I do think I was pigeonholed," she said, adding that working with Meryl Streep on A Prairie Home Companion once felt like a breakthrough moment. 'Which is frustrating. Because, well, you know me as this, but you also know I can do that. So let me! Give me the chance." She continued, 'I have to break that cycle and open doors to something else, leaving people no choice. And in due time, if Martin Scorsese reaches out, I'm not going to say no." After stepping away from acting in 2008 to focus on her personal life, Lohan eventually left Los Angeles altogether, relocating to Dubai in 2015. The move, she says, gave her peace away from the relentless paparazzi culture. 'I don't ever want my family to go through what I went through. I have extreme PTSD from it. It's not safe. It's not fair," she shared. On a separate talk show appearance, she explained how the Middle Eastern city gave her the freedom she needed. 'You can't take someone's photo without asking. It's just different." Besides Freakier Friday, Lohan is also set to star in and executive produce Count My Lies, an upcoming Hulu thriller. She plays a manipulative nanny at the center of a web of secrets. Lohan has also expressed a strong desire to return to classic, character-driven films. 'There are not many major movies I want to go and see that are like that — there's a gap and I'm craving to do work like that," she said. Now married to Bader Shammas, whom she met in Dubai, and mother to son Luai, Lohan says she's entering a new phase.

Comedian Matt Rife, best known for his sharp improv skills and sold-out stand-up shows, is making headlines once again. Rife has officially purchased the Connecticut residence that once belonged to famed paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, figures whose work inspired The Conjuring universe. As part of the acquisition, he has also assumed legal guardianship of the Annabelle doll, one of the most notorious items in modern horror lore. Confirming the news on Instagram, Rife shared, INSANE ANNOUNCEMENT. I have officially purchased Ed and Lorraine Warren's home and Occult Museum, including being the legal guardian for at least the next 5 years, of the entire haunted collection including THE ANNABELLE DOLL, with my good friend @eltoncastee!! If you know me, you know I'm obsessed with the paranormal and all things haunted. You also may know The Conjuring films are my favorite scary movies of all time. So I'm incredibly honored to have taken over one of the most prominent properties in paranormal history. Ed and Lorain Warren arguably put demonology and paranormal into the mainstream and are the very heart of some of the most famous haunted stories of all time, The Conjuring House, Amityville Horror, et… We plan to open the house for overnight stays and museum tours so you yourself can experience and learn all the haunted history surrounding this amazing place. #TheConjuring #Annabelle #AnnabelleDoll #haunted." Take a look: In a TikTok video that quickly went viral, Rife provided more context about the purchase. 'This might be the most important and prominent piece of paranormal history in the world," he explained. 'I know a lot of you guys don't know what any of this means whatsoever, but if you follow ghost stuff, this is as big as it gets." He further clarified, 'We are the legal guardians and caretakers of all 750 haunted artifacts and items in the Warren Museum, including the Annabelle doll. We do not legally own the items, but we are the legal guardians and caretakers of the items for at least the next five years." The Annabelle doll gained international attention after appearing in the opening scene of The Conjuring (2013), and went on to star in a spinoff trilogy: Annabelle (2014), Annabelle: Creation (2017), and Annabelle Comes Home (2019). The last installment was set entirely within the Warrens' artifact-filled home, the very property Rife now owns. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
