Malayalam actress molestation: Deepika Padukone speaks up against the disturbing incident

Synopsis

Deepika Padukone has reacted on the molestation case while speaking with a popular newspaper.

On February 17th, Mollywood woke up to a shock when it was learnt that a famous Mollywood actress was kidnapped and molested in her own car. 

 

Right from Mollywood superstar Mohanlal to Dulquer to Nivin Pauly to Manju Warrier to Reema Kallingal to Prithviraj have spoken up about this shocking incident. 

 

Even Bollywood actors Alia Bhatt, Arjun Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Farhan Akhtar, Shraddha Kapoor, have spoken up.  

 

Recently in an interview with a daily, Deepika has also shown her worries, she said, ” It scares me as a human being. I am not thinking, ‘oh, she is an actor, a businesswoman or a cricketer’. I am just thinking of her and what she might have had to go through. Again, it’s similar to the Bangalore molestation incident (on New Year’s Eve), and I strongly feel [upset] that people get away with these things time and again. Nothing is going to change if the laws don’t get stricter as far as punishment is concerned. Sometimes, it’s scary how people get away. How many more incidents like these do we need for someone to wake up and realise that we need to do something? And there’s not just physical abuse but much more that needs to be addressed."

 

Meanwhile, the main accused Pulsar Sunil and another suspect have been arrested on the case.
