The torchbearer of the #MeToo movement in the country, Tanushree Dutta, says that the #MeToo is going to have a deeper impact than it did last year with little to no repercussions on whistleblowers and survivors.

Tanushree says, "Many women whistleblowers who are embroiled in defamation cases will find unexpected relief from their battle. Unlike last year, where there was a lot of noise, a lot of toxic sludge throwing on those who spoke up, but little results or accountability on part of those accused, this year will be different. It will be about the productivity and actual quantifiable impact of #MeToo that would lead to our workplaces implementing more stringent anti-harassment policies. This has already started in many industries in India, but Bollywood has still been a bit more stubborn in implementing it comprehensively."
