Host Ranjini Haridas is revealing her ordeal. ‘There is an actor who sent me shirtless photos. Why send a photo like that and what is its purpose? Will ask to send my photo. I am not mentioning his name because I don’t have any proof. I have replied that the person you asked is wrong. And with that, it has ended. The film industry is an eyesore. People are crazy about it. To fame, to power, to money. So not everyone can say no immediately. Personally, I feel that it is the economically disadvantaged people who fall prey to this. If we come from privilege, we don’t need any of this. I don’t have any problem if my parents are big people in movies. That is natural. If people come here without privilege and give in, saying yes to sexual favors will change their lives.
We should teach women not to say no to such things. This situation should not change. Many senior actors say that the reason for not saying no is that they can work in other fields. Ranjini Haridas asked why?
She also said that she was not shocked by the cases of sexual assault against leading actors. All that has come out now are things that have become popular in the film industry itself. The giant tigers escaped. She said that it is not the junior artistes who should come forward but the prominent actresses who have been sexually exploited. Ranjii openly said that leading actresses do not open their mouths because of the fear of losing their careers. Ranjini accused that sexual exploitation is going on in the modeling industry under the guise of inauguration ceremonies. She stated that she had such a feeling during an advertisement shooting in Kannur and immediately reacted strongly. Young children who are beginners in the film industry are victims of sexual exploitation. Ranjini said that men are also victims of exploitation
