Bollywood actress Suhana Khan and Navya Naveli Nanda, granddaughter of legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan, have expressed their profound anger over the recent rape and murder of a female trainee doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. On Thursday, Suhana Khan shared a message from Navya Naveli Nanda on her Instagram stories.


"Yet another horrific rape has unfolded in front of our eyes. First and most importantly, let us pray for her and her family.Women have always played a very important role in the growth and development of our country. The workplace, the classroom and the home must be an enabling and safe space for us.Men and women need to unite against those mindsets and belief systems that continuously objectify women or think of them as easy prey," read the Instagram post.


"The times we are out at night or what we wear are NOT signs for anything other than the fact that we have a right to live our life the way we desire. And for this, we cannot be made to live in continued fear or under threat.While nothing can ever compensate the pain and suffering the doctor went through that day, we need to take concrete steps to ensure this NEVER happens again. Whether it's stricter law enforcement or building safety protocols - steps need to be taken immediately. We deserve better. We will continue to fight for better. Because nothing and no one should ever be able to override the agency and dignity of women," it further read.

Earlier in the day, Kareena condemned the gruesome rape and murder of the trainee doctor in Kolkata. Taking to Instagram, Kareena wrote, "12 years later; the same story; the same protest. But we are still waiting for change." Actor Alia Bhatt also expressed her shock and outrage over the rape and murder of a trainee doctor in Kolkata.

On Wednesday night, Alia took to Instagram and shared her thoughts about the horrific incident. In the post, she raised concern over the safety of women. "Another brutal rape. Another day of realisation that women are not safe, anywhere. Another horrific atrocity to remind us that it's been over a decade since the Nirbhaya tragedy, but still nothing much has changed," she posted.

The post-graduate trainee doctor was found dead in the seminar hall of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata on August 9. The family has alleged that the victim was raped and murdered. In a strong display of support, doctors across the nation continue to protest over the murder and alleged sexual assault of a post-graduate trainee (PGT) doctor, demanding justice for the victim.

The protests were held in the cities of Kolkata, Guwahati, Hyderabad and Mumbai on Wednesday. The protestors were holding placards, "Justice needs to be served", "No duty without security" and "Justice delayed is Justice denied".
