Vivacious Sonam Kapoor has got herself into trouble for her backing #MeToo accused Rajkumar Hirani. Hirani noted for his films like 3 idiots and PK was accused by a woman assistant who had worked with him in Sanju. Sonam stated that she has known Hirani for years and would like to reserve her judgement calling it is too early to say. I always want to believe a woman but suppose by chance, if it is not true, then how bad it will be for the movement, especially if it is somebody like Raju Hirani,” said Sonam.
Sonam Kapoor Supports Me Too Accused Rajkumar Hirani
“I know Raju Hirani very well, I have known him for many years and I have huge respect for him as a filmmaker and as a man. I think we all should reserve judgement and be very responsible before we say anything more on this subject.. Because we don’t need to derail this movement. she explained
“This film (Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga) is important and it should not become about that. If I have to sit down and talk about it, I can talk about it at length but we need to be careful about the people we accuse and people whose side we take. You have to take side and I don’t believe in sitting on the fence so I will take my side when I have to,” Sonam added. However, netizens went berserk after Sonam’s statement over Handni adn they slammed her out for being prejudice and baised. Have a look at the comments from tweeple:
Sonam Kapoor saying she believes all women, just not when they're accusing the producer of her new film, and especially not when the film is as important as the movement, and anyway, the woman's probably lying https://t.co/SQvVaZ439T pic.twitter.com/92zwI0zdAs

Sonam Kapoor wants to 'reserve judgement' on Rajkumar Hirani, says we should be 'responsible' before saying anything https://t.co/itXWqur2BQ But this rule doesn't apply when the accused are not her friends #MeToo

Yeah agreed though! i think sonam kapoor is an important ally but yes, she does have a bit of a problem with surporting sexual assult victims

Haha. It’s more like a matter of convinience. Shout all #Metoo until one of your loved one (Male) gets harassed by the dirty women with hidden agenda. #sonamkapoor

Shame on you #SonamKapoor . Shame on Bollywood. These A lister women from ruch, influential families are all protected. But what about the ones who don’t have any protection or influence or backing. So sick to my stomach to hear this.
