Munmun Dutta aka our very own Babita ji knows nono introduction. Right from the time she started working in TMKOC show till now, she has been winning the hearts of one and all. The Bengali diva is the quintessential blend of talent, hard work, glamour, potential and that’s one of the biggest reasons why she’s so successful today. It’s been some time now that Munmun hasn’t shot for TMKOC and hence fans are super excited to see her back again on-screen
Much to the delight of all of them, Munmun cleared rumours of her not being a part of the show. From casting to Metoo, Munmun has always been vocal and straightforward about everything in life and her fans got a major shock when she opened up about her #MeToo experience.
She was quoted by NEWS18 saying,
“Yes …. #Metoo ….. Sharing a post like this and joining the global awareness on sexual assaults on women all over the world and showing solidarity to each and every woman who sailed on the same boat , shows the magnitude of the problem. M surprised that some ‘good ‘ men are shocked to see the number of women who have come out and shared their #metoo experiences. NO DON’T BE. This is happening in your own backyard, in your own house, with your own sister, daughter , mother, wife or even your maid … Gain their trusts and ask them. You will be surprised at their answers.. You will be surprised with their stories.
She further added, “Writing something like this brings me to tears reliving those memories as a little girl when I was scared of the neighbourhood uncle and his prying eyes who at any given opportunity would grope me and threaten me not to speak about this to anyone ….. OR my much older cousins who would eye me differently than their own daughters …. OR the man who saw me at the hospital when I was born and 13 years later he thought it’s appropriate for him to touch my body because I was a growing teenager and my body had changed…. OR my tuition teacher who had his hands in my underpants ……. OR this another teacher , whom I tied Rakhi to, would scold the female students in the class by pulling their bra straps and slapping on their breasts.
OR that man in the train station who gropes U … Why ?? Because you’re too young and scared to speak up. So scared that you can feel your stomach getting twisted inside and throat getting choked up … you don’t know how are you going to explain it to your parents or you’re too shy to utter a word to anyone …. And then you start developing that deep rooted hatred towards men … Because you know they’re the culprit who made you feel this way.. That disgusting, twisted feeling inside which takes years to overcome …. M happy to be another voice joining this movement and make people realise that I was not spared either. But TODAY I will rip apart any man who even remotely tries anything on me.I AM PROUD OF WHO I AM.”
Well, we are certainly proud of how far Munmun has come forward in life. For more updates, stay tuned to IWMBuzz.com
