Bahl’s ex-wife questions Ranaut

Richa Dubey slams actress for alleging the filmmaker behaved inappropri­ately with her

-

Vikas Bahl’s ex-wife Richa Dubey has come out in support of the filmmaker and slammed actress Kangana Ranaut for her claims.

Dubey took to Twitter on Friday and questioned Ranaut, who worked with Bahl in Queen, why she continued to have a good friendship with the filmmaker despite his alleged inappropri­ate actions.

Ranaut alleged that Bahl used to “bury his face in her neck” and “hold her really tight”. The actress’ claims come after a former Phantom Films employee accused Bahl of sexually abusing her in 2015 in Goa.

“This is going beyond boundaries and tolerance level now this is not a #MeToo but a meme,” Dubey said. “I want to ask all the women if a man makes you uncomforta­ble and touches you inappropri­ately would you have a good friendship with that man?”

Dubey then mentioned certain “loopholes” in the actress’ story that included performing with Bahl an “item number” at Madhu Mantena and Masaba Gupta’s wedding in 2015 to sharing “extremely friendly messages”.
