It is so good that she is standing for something that others need to do.
The Sita Ramam actress shared a note on her Instagram account and urged others to join the conversation, stating, “Shame on people who resort to such things. It shows that there’s no conscience left at all in such people. Thank you, Rashmika Mandanna, for speaking up and for addressing this issue that so far we have seen glimpses of, but a lot of us chose to remain silent. Every day, there are morphed, edited videos of female actors floating around on the internet, zooming into inappropriate body parts. Where are we heading as a community and as a society? We may be actresses in the ‘limelight’, but at the end of the day, each one of us is human. Why aren’t we talking about it? Don’t remain silent; now is not the time.”
Mrunal Thakur will next seen in Tollywood films like Hi Nanna alongside natural star Nani and alongside Vijay Devarkonda in Family Star.
