Agencies Tanushree Dutta Shares Emotional Plea Amid Ongoing Harassment Allegations Tanushree Dutta, the actress known for igniting the #MeToo movement in India, recently took to social media with a tearful video, claiming that she is facing constant harassment within her own residence. Visibly distraught, she stated that she had already approached the police, seeking protection and action against the troubling incidents. Her video rapidly made rounds across platforms, drawing widespread concern and shock from fans and the public. In the emotionally charged video, Tanushree can be seen crying uncontrollably. In an interview with News 18, she expressed that she feels unsafe and targeted, drawing parallels to the tragic case of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, whose death in 2020 stirred nationwide anger and raised questions about pressures within the entertainment industry. According to her, a similar plot may be unfolding against her, which has pushed her to fear for her life.'Like Sushant Singh Rajput, there is an attempt to kill me too," she said. Allegations of Surveillance and Internal Threats Tanushree further alleged that her own home is no longer a safe space. She claimed that there had been attempts to spy on her, and shockingly, she suspected that a domestic helper had been strategically placed in her household to monitor her activities. She also said the maid stole from her. Declaring her intention to take legal action, she mentioned she would be filing an official police complaint about the breach of her privacy and these disturbing developments. Reiterating her fears, the actress pointed to a powerful and hidden network within the film world, which she believes has been actively trying to harm her. She stated that the so-called 'Bollywood mafia' was the force behind her current situation, and she earnestly appealed to the authorities for immediate security and protection. Backlash and Online Scrutiny Following the release of her video, an Instagram user questioned the authenticity of her claims, suggesting that Tanushree might be doing this for publicity. Though the comment was framed politely, the user speculated that the actress was perhaps seeking attention. In response, Tanushree firmly addressed the user by pointing out the account's suspicious creation, hinting that it may have been made solely to discredit her. In her Instagram caption accompanying the video, she conveyed her exhaustion and helplessness. She revealed that the harassment she has been enduring dates back to 2018, when she first came forward with her #MeToo allegations. She emphasized that she had reached her breaking point and had no choice but to contact the police again for intervention, pleading for someone to help before matters spiral further. Accusations Against Family Members Later that same evening, Tanushree shared that the distressing behavior was not just coming from strangers or outsiders but from people within her own family. She mentioned considering taking legal steps against certain relatives, whom she believes may be involved in mentally distressing her. The tone of her statement and her visible emotions added a layer of urgency to her claims. A Look Back at Her #MeToo Battle For those unfamiliar with her earlier ordeal, Tanushree had accused veteran actor Nana Patekar in 2018 of sexually harassing her on the set of the 2008 film Horn Ok Please . Although she officially filed a complaint in 2018, Patekar was cleared of the charges in 2019 by police authorities. Where She Stands Today Tanushree, who was once known for films like Aashiq Banaya Aapne , Dhol , and Good Boy Bad Boy , has been away from the screen for over a decade. Her last appearance was in the 2013 show SuperCops Vs Super Villains . However, the turbulence in her personal life continues to draw attention, raising fresh questions about accountability, safety, and mental health in the entertainment world.

Tanushree Dutta Alleges Threat To Her Life Like Sushant Singh Rajput: 'Maids Planted To Spy'
Last Updated: Tanushree Dutta claims her life is in danger like Sushant Singh Rajput's, alleges Bollywood mafia harassment. Tanushree Dutta has once again sparked concern online after an emotional video of her surfaced on social media. In the clip, the actress is seen breaking down in tears as she alleges that she is being 'harassed". The video, which quickly went viral, left many fans shocked and concerned for her well-being. And now, speaking to News18 exclusively, she made a series of serious allegations, claiming she is being harassed and is in danger. Drawing parallels with the late Sushant Singh Rajput, who was found dead in his Mumbai home in 2020, the actress alleged that there is a powerful force within Bollywood working against her. 'Like Sushant Singh Rajput, there is an attempt to kill me too," she said, referring to the actor's untimely death in 2020, which led to intense public outcry and theories linking it to the so-called 'Bollywood mafia'. In a new video message, Tanushree directly appealed to the authorities: 'I request the government to provide me with security." She said she believes there is a powerful nexus within the industry working against her. 'The Bollywood mafia gang is huge, and like Sushant, my life is also in danger." Tanushree, who was one of the first prominent names to speak up during India's MeToo movement in 2018, connected her current ordeal to that moment. 'Since I raised my voice against Nana Patekar for the incident that happened with me during the MeToo movement, suspicious activities have started around me." According to her, the harassment hasn't stopped. 'I am being followed constantly. I am being harassed." She also alleged that her home was not safe either. 'There was spying done in my house, and a house help was planted for that purpose. I will file a complaint at the police station tomorrow regarding these incidents." Tanushree also made it clear that this should be treated as a fresh case, not linked to her previous complaints. 'I hope and request the police to not judge this case by my previous ones, and look at it with a new perspective so I can get justice. I do not want to reopen my previous case." Late Tuesday night, Tanushree shared the video on her official Instagram account, claiming that the harassment was coming from her own family. In the visibly emotional footage, she appeared distressed and spoke about possibly taking legal steps against her relatives.

Tanushree Dutta Makes SHOCKING Allegations, Claims 'Bollywood Mafia Threat Like Sushant Singh Rajput'
Tanushree Dutta shared a video alleging years of harassment at home, claiming a conspiracy by the "Bollywood mafia gang." Tanushree Dutta stunned social media on Tuesday after she shared a disturbing video, alleging that she has been facing harassment inside her own home for years. In an exclusive interview with News18 India, the actress opened up about it for the first time. Just like Sushant Singh Rajput, there are attempts being made to kill me," Tanushree said, warning of a larger conspiracy involving what she describes as the 'Bollywood mafia gang." She went on to say, 'I urge the government to provide me with security. This mafia is huge and dangerous, and I fear for my life just like Sushant must have." Tanushree first made headlines in 2018 when she reignited her allegations of sexual harassment against veteran actor Nana Patekar, becoming one of the earliest voices in India's MeToo movement. She now claims 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. 'I will file a complaint tomorrow at the police station," she said. 'I request the authorities not to treat this as a continuation of my previous case but to look at this with a fresh perspective and help me get justice." However, she clarified that she does not wish to reopen her older 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. As of now, there has been no official response from the Mumbai Police or any Bollywood figures regarding her claims.
