Kangana Ranaut, the lead actress of Queen,
the film directed by Vikas Bahl who was
accused of sexual harassment in 2015, has
finally opened up about the controversy
surrounding the director. Kangana Ranaut
who worked with him closely on Queen has
come out and spoken her heart out. The
actress has always been upfront about
issues and this time too, she didn't shy away
from talking. Well, the curtains of the
Phantom production house, founded by
Anurag Kashyap, Vikas Bahl, Vikramaditya
Motwane and Madha Mantena have come
down.
As the production house shuts, an alleged
sexual harassment by a top Bollywood
director, Bahl, comes to the limelight again.
A former young woman working at
Phantom Films had alleged that she was
molested by Vikas Bahl, director of the
much-acclaimed movie Queen, during a trip
to Goa. This incident happened ahead of the
release of Bombay Velvet in the year 2015.
Kangana Ranaut speaks up about the
incident. She said, "Totally believe her, even
though Vikas was married back in 2014
when we were filming Queen, he bragged
about having casual sex with a new partner
every other day... I don't judge people and
their marriages but you can tell when
addiction becomes sickness ... he partied
every night and shamed me for sleeping
early and not being cool enough ...I often
told him off... he was scared of me but still
every time we met socially greeted and
hugged each other ... he'd bury his face in
my neck ... hold me really tight and breathe
in the smell of my hair ... it took me great
amount of strength and effort to pull myself
out of his embrace, he'd say... "I love how
you smell K... " I could tell something is
wrong with him...I believe this girl ... but
what is sad is that now that Phantom has
dissolved many are attacking him, even
though the girl asked for help long ago, that
time the story was conveniently killed but I
supported her at that time as well, you can
see my media interaction during one of my
brand endorsement interaction, I thought
the movement would catch up but I was
wrong...at that time Vikas had come to me
with a script about a gold medalist from
Haryana... When I supported the girl, he
stopped talking to me, I didn't mind loosing
out on a good script and I never called him
either I was determined to say what I felt
was right ...but the matter was pushed
under the carpet and I didn't hear any
updates about the same ...its amusing
after the news of Phantom dissolution many
are finding the courage to attack
him...shame on such a society... go look at
yourselves in the mirror bunch of
cowards... attacking powerless men won't
begin a movement ... either we do it or we
don't ... lets not be opportunists...if we are
a shit society lets accept at least have that
much honestly within yourself ... selective
outrage will only serve as entertainment,
this will just be tabloid gossip and nothing
else ..."
