#MeToo has unearthed the grim reality of our society

Image
(Image Credit: TheWire.in ) #MeToo is actually termed as a campaign by the media; however it isn’t a campaign but actually a look into the grim reality of our society. Our world is focused around looking at women as a means of pleasure, or stalking, and even abusing. The world has moved ahead from the 70’s and while we may consider ourselves as a modern society, we are still living in those old days where women are considered otherwise. Our world has changed, but the revelations coming out everyday have shocked us. From famous names including politicians like M.J. Akbar to recently accused Anu Malik, the harassment saga continues to open up every day. This movement started after Tanushree Dutta accused Nana Patekar of sexual abuse, and has been confined to the B-Town right now, we can be rest assured that if other segments of work and business start raising their voices, we may see a lot of names under the scanner and many legacies broken. Today Barkha Dutt took a di...

With an array of subjects on which he made his movies, his work has been a source of inspiration for many existing and up-and-coming filmmakers in the film fraternity.

3 reasons why Tanushree Dutta's claims raise some important questions

Image
Tanushree Dutta worked in B-Town for a short span and took a hiatus from the show-biz, until she talked about the sexual harrasment by Nana Patekar. While this issue is still fresh, another case of Vikas Behl has been in the news and his name hasn't been in this case for the first time. Unlike Vikas, Nana has never been accused for such activities, but if there is any truth to the claims by Tanushree Dutta then it is an alarming condition, and the film fraternity as well as the law must take sui-motto of this situation. While some of us may take stands on this issue, we at The Mis Studio condemn any type of atrocities on women, and here are our reasons why this must be looked into well by the law: 1. B-town gets a bad name There is nothing more wrong than a woman in the film fraternity claiming to be sexually abused, and as much as it demeans the person doing such an act, it also puts the lady in a tough spot. With this case, along with Vikas Behl’s case com...

The actor was ridiculed for doing slapstick comedy films which were either below the belt or demeaning women in some way. The actor took heed of the criticism that came his way and worked in some amazing movies that has made him the talk of the town. His work in movies like October and Sui Dhaaga are a sign that he is on the right track. With so many movies being made today, and Varun’s acting chops we can expect this actor to take his place alongside his peers and here are our reasons why: 3. Acting Varun has worked on his acting and the same can be seen in October. Directed by Shoojit Sircar, the movie is a tale of a girl and her journey. Varun worked so well alongside the new comer Banita Sandhu that it was a breathtaking experience. While he did receive support from an am...
