Pesky Nana

Tanushree Dutta received legal notices from Nana PatekarIn interviews with a popular channel, Tanushree Dutta has accused co-star Nana Patekar of sexually harassing her on the set of Horn Ok Please in 2008. She alleged that Patekar insisted on featuring alongside her in a song that was initially supposed to be a solo dance number. Dutta also spoke about how the actor “misbehaved” with her, and would “grab and push me around” on the set.

She also called out producer Sami Siddiqui, director Rakesh Sarang and choreographer Ganesh Acharya for their inaction after she voiced her concern, leading to her opting out of the song.

Her revelations have not gone down well with the director. Speaking to mid-day, Sarang claimed that his advice to Dutta would be “to move ahead”. He felt she is “probably creating a controversy because she may want to make a comeback”. Ganesh asserted that Patekar was a “very sweet person and can never do that.”
