Nana Patekar will soon address to all allegations in a press conference

Recently, Tanushree Dutta while talking about her #Metoo experience, she opened up a ten year old Pandora’s Box, claiming that veteran Bollywood actor Nana Patekar has allegedly abused her both verbally and sexually on the sets of the film ‘Horn Ok Please’. Following the allegations of sexual misconduct, initially Nana Patekar had scoffed it off, then apparently, news surfaced, that he and his lawyer is preparing to send legal notice to Tanushree Dutta for maligning his name. And now in the recent development, it is stated that he will respond to the matter through a press conference and is ready to answer all the queries and ambiguities concerning the matter.

According to a report by Times of India, the Nana Patekar has claimed that he will answer all the questions regarding the sexual harassment claims by Tanushree Dutta in a press conference soon.

“I am shooting in Jaisalmer and as soon as I am back in Mumbai on the 7th or 8th of October, I will hold a press in Mumbai, where you can ask me anything you want,” he said. “I want to look into the camera and answer every question. You can ask me whatever you want to know about this. I have no reason to hide,” he stated.

He also added: “It’s all about what do you want to believe. Do you really think ke me itka ghanerda manoos aahe? (Do you think I am so disgusting?) Do people not know me at all? I don’t need others to validate my good conduct. I can barely dance and it’s not even something I like doing. Why would I ask someone to introduce some lewd step? There are 500 people on set!”

Furthermore the veteran actor hoped for people to not hastily start making assumptions, saying: “These are some serious allegations. In a situation like this, I can either deny them and say that’s it a lie or take her to court for maligning me. What else can I do? But I will speak in detail once I am back and I hope people don’t jump to conclusions before that. That is not right.”
