Last year, actress Tanushree Dutta filed an FIR against noted actor Nana Patekar for sexual misconduct on the set of a song shoot. Patekar was her co-star in Horn-OkPlease in 2008. The case is officially closed by the Police in Mumbai because of the absence of evidences.
Tanushree Dutta's accusation for Bollywood actor Nana Patekar came as a shock for everyone, and also marked the begining of #MeToo movement, where numerous women came out about incidents where they faced harassment. While some of the cases are still pending, today the verdict on Tanushree - Nana Patekar case has come out and it states that no evidence has been found against the actor that proves the allegations.

There are few who still root for Dutta.
@MumbaiPolice is known friend of filmi NAAMDARS & good at giving good character certificates to Salman, Nana etc. A 5th grade student can do a better job than Mumbai Police #NanaPatekar #mumbai #TanushreeDutta

What do you think with the trail of events that are associated with the case? Could it really have been a publicity stunt? Or could it be that it wasn’t looked into hard enough at all? Or was it all just a big misunderstanding from both ends? Let us know.
