Sussanne Khan's former husband Hrithik Roshan was attacked by Kangana Ranaut recently, after she demanded punishment for the actor for dating "young girls" while keeping a trophy wife. In the wake of the #MeToo movement, here's what Sussanne said recently:

¡°I honestly don't want to comment on this issue much but I definitely feel that there is lot of pretence, false allegations and sort of crazy behaviour. They are using the platform badly and it's not a good thing. If they use platform correctly then, it's supposed to be good thing. They shouldn't make allegation on an individual without any legal evidence,¡± she told IANS.

On the other hand, singer Usha Uthup says that the #MeToo movement has been blown out of proportion.

¡°I am quite sad about the whole thing being blown out of proportion. Am equally sad on how it has been worked out. I never thought they could do something of this kind to make it that big¡­ I feel sorry. It should not have happened like this. So many people involved and hurt in so many ways,¡± she told IANS.
