While I(most of us) don't know what really know the case, I don't think we should assume Nana is guilty because Tanu said so.
I am not saying Tanu is doing this for fame or it is Sallu's chal😆 or Nana is innocent, but I think blindly believing anyone is not correct.


What is her sister's name?

The only thing i remember from the old incidence is that tanushree had some problems with touching/being touched by nana on the set during shooting...


And suddenly it turned into a marathi manoos thing ... There were these mob who were yelling that she refused to let him touch her bec he was marathi manoos... They surrounded her car and practically jumped on it threatening her body harm ... And saying stuff like - sab hi toh chu te hain isse, marathi manoos ne chu liya toh problem kyun hai ...



... I don't know how but i still remember watching that news report years ago... It was frankly just scary to look at what they were threatening to do to her...

Denying her allegations, Acharya said, "First of all, it's a very old incident so I can't really recall everything very clearly. But it was a duet song as far as I remember. Something did happen that day because the shooting was also stalled for over three hours. There was some sort of misunderstanding. But I can confirm that nothing this sort of happened. It's a wrong statement that Nana ji called members of some political party on set. It never happened.

Dutta had also claimed that Acharya "stabbed me in the back by taking sides with Patekar.

"He got the job because of me. I had recommended his name for that song because I had done some work with him earlier and he complied with Patekar, she had claimed.

When asked about the same, Acharya said, "It's nothing like that I got the song because of Tanushree. The director of the film Rakesh Sarang is my old friend. He recently made Ranangan I have also done choreography in that. Its producer Samee is also my friend I was also a part of his first film which he did with Rajkumar Santoshi. So I knew them very well. She didn't recommend me.

In the interview, Dutta claimed that Patekar was not supposed to be a part of the song in the first place and her contract clearly stated that it was a "solo dance sequence. Acharya has, however, claimed that he had been informed that Patekar was always the part of the song.

"When I was called for rehearsal I was told that Nana ji was also there in the song. I don't have the agreement with me because that time we used to do it verbally. But that particular song didn't involve any kind of indecent step in the first place. It was pure dancing. That's all, he stated.

Dont spread lies. The Media reporters were the ones who stopped her car after her secretary misbehaved with a reporter n broke the camera. She n her team tried to get away and the reporters blocked her car and took them to the local police station.

After that, the Producer replaced her with Rakhi Sawant. Tanushree said "If they wanted a girl who likes to get touched, they shud hv taken Rakhi since day 1". This was a cheap shot by her. Wat was she doing in Emraan Hashmi video then? She had signed up for Item song but was throwing tantrums. Producer changed her. So, she tried to make wild allegations against everyone including Nana who was only following wat the choreographer asked him to do. That was when MNS came and threatened her to behave. They said she was no Madhuri Dixit and cannot simply make fake allegations against a Senior Respected star like Nana.

Recently there was a huge fracas on the sets of the film Horn Ok Pleasss with actress Tanushree Dutta refusing to shoot for an item number due to various reasons. Now the producer and director of the film have replaced Tanushree with popular item girl Rakhi Sawant for the item song in the film.

Item girl Rakhi Sawant has replaced actress Tanushree Dutta for an item song in the film Horn Ok Pleasss. There seems to be different stories circulating as to the real reason that Tanushree Dutta refused to continue shooting the item song. Tanushree first supposedly didn't want to do rehearsals for the song and wanted to go ahead with the final shots. Later the actress claimed that she was uncomfortable with all the junior artists getting too close to her. Tanushree has also made accusations against veteran actor Nana Patekar trying to get too close to her and trying to teach her the dance steps. The actress was apparently also not comfortable with her outfit and the bold dance steps in the item song. Tanushree claims that she asked dance choreographer Ganesh Acharya to change the steps as she was uncomfortable with them, but he refused. That's when she supposedly locked herself in her vanity van for around two hours and refused to shoot any further.

However the dance choreographer, director and producer all have a different story to tell. They claim that Tanushree was extremely unprofessional and kept making baseless allegations at everyone including senior actor Nana Patekar. Finally after Tanushree decided not to continue shooting for the item song, the director and producer decided to replace her with Rakhi Sawant. Rakhi was more than happy to do the item song and step into Tanushree's shoes. However the fracas went further, when outside the studio, Tanushree' s car was blocked by media personnel. The media had surrounded the car and this apparently angered her bodyguard who roughed up some of the media people. This led to the media people getting violent and in turn they damaged Tanushree's car to a grave extent. Tanushree has now filed an FIR with the police and she has also made a complaint against the producers with Cine and Television Artists Association demanding compensation for damage to property and her reputation.

Apparently the producers in turn are also claiming that they will sue Tanushree for the losses they incurred due to her unprofessional behaviour. Sources claim that the political party MNS which Nana Patekar supports also got involved in the fracas later. Apparently the Cine Artists Association claims that even Rakhi Sawant can get into problems as she did not bother acquiring an NOC (No Objection Certificate) from Tanushree before she agreed to do the item number.

Some incidents that take place even a decade ago remain fresh in your memory. What happened with #TanushreeDutta on the sets of "Horn Ok Please is one such incident - I was there. #NanaPatekar [THREAD]


Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85

I was a cub reporter in 2008, assigned by AajTak and Headlines Today to cover the BTS of a song being shot for this film. When I arrived, I was told shooting had been stalled because the actress, #TanushreeDutta was "being difficult". #NanaPatekar

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

I could see Tanushree on set, visibly upset about something. #NanaPatekar, choreographer Ganesh Acharya and a man (who I later found was the producer) were having a conversation, while 50-odd dancers sat waiting. The official version was that the "heroine was not cooperating.

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

A while later, shooting resumed. Tanushree resumed work, and a couple shots later, #NanaPatekar joined her. Not long after that, Tanushree walked off set. Shooting halted again. She locked herself in her vanity van, refusing to come out.

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

Out of nowhere, goons turned up and began banging against the vanity van door. I was told the producers had called them to set. Cops arrived. Amidst this chaos, I got hold of #NanaPatekar. All he said was, "Meri beti jaisi hai, which didn't really make any sense at that point.

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

Eventually, Tanushree's parents arrived to pick her up. Her car was attacked, the windshield broken. I tried to get in touch with Tanushree to get her version of events. Around midnight, she asked me to come to her place. In tears, she narrated what really happened. #NanaPatekar

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

Tanushree told me that after three days of rehearsals, Ganesh Acharya changed every step on the day of shoot. #NanaPatekar was never meant to be part of the choreography, but coerced the producers into getting him to shake a leg with Dutta.

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

Later, she said, a lewd dance step was introduced on the insistence of #NanaPatekar, so he could touch her inappropriately. That's where alarm bells rang, and Tanushree decided to walk off set. What she didn't expect was the aggression shown by the producers after.

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85

The chat I had with Dutta hours after the incident was identical to the account she's come out with now. How could a person's version remain the same a decade later if there wasn't any truth to it? [Our chat was off-the-record, even though she went on to give interviews later.]

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

For anyone who's either going to be ignoring or downplaying Dutta's account as a desperate call for attention and question why she didn't speak out earlier - she did. Interviews by Dutta were followed by a press conference by #NanaPatekar where she was branded "unprofessional.

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85

This was a decade ago. It could have possibly been the first instance of a Bollywood actress calling out sexual predators, and her voice was silenced by more powerful men who continued to have flourishing careers. Now she's found her voice again. Shouldn't we listen? #NanaPatekar

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

Things aren't the same anymore (even though, they aren't exactly different either). The #MeToo movement has encouraged women to come out and speak about sexual misconduct in the West. If it's, in turn, inspiring women in India to speak out, we need to find a way to encourage it.

Janice Sequeira @janiceseq85
More

We all know there are hundreds and thousands of women who are too afraid to speak out against sexual assault and misconduct, lest they be called "unprofessional". They will only speak up if we appreciate - even laud - the courage of #TanushreeDutta, and not look the other way.

Going by all versions, it is clear that Media personnels were the ones who hounded and harassed her. Janice should first apologize to her on behalf of the unruly media persons. Not surprised that she turned them into "goons" to save her own fraternity.

Coming to the incident, it is clear she wanted to change the dance steps. But to say, it was at Nana insistence that the steps were designed is too much. No man is going to get turned on by touching a woman during a item song when 100 crew members are looking including media persons for God's sake!

To label Nana Patekar as a "Sexual Predator" over this incident is bit too much. Says a lot about the standard of Journalism these days. For all we know, he could just be following the steps of a Item song as a Professional.

To snowflakes, Dont step into the kitchen if you cannot handle the fire. Dont enter Film industry if you have a "touch me not" policy onscreen. Dont sign up for Item songs if u dont want raunchy steps. They are known as "Item songs" for a reason!

Pls chill... I'm neither a fan nor a anti fan of either to "spread lies"... This is what i recall watching on TV at that time... Why the hell do i Remember a decade old video... Don't know... Maybe bec it was the first time i had seen a mob harrowing an actress .. But that's what i remember... There was alot of slogan shouting and there was definitely a political mob there... Just bec what i remember does not suit your narrative doesn't mean I'm spreading lies...

shame on contemporary heroines for not voicing their support. #metoo is only possible with support and change. Nothing is going to change if they turn a blind eye. time and again, same thing! they all say 'Girl Power' but when it comes to actually supporting fellow female heroines, they are no where! Kangana, priyanka, anushka, deepika; everyone had their scandals, none of the others showed their support.
