Actress Somy Ali expressed support for Tanushree Dutta's claims of domestic harassment through her advocacy work. Ali operates the US-based nonprofit organization No More Tears, which assists victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. She stated that Dutta's allegations deserve credibility rather than dismissal. Ali emphasized her personal experience within the entertainment industry provides insight into systematic abuse patterns. Her organization works to rehabilitate survivors who face similar circumstances.
Ali described Bollywood's culture as protecting powerful men while marginalizing women who report misconduct. She witnessed actresses receiving inappropriate audition requests and facing career consequences for refusing advances. The advocate noted that survivors often experience mental health struggles while perpetrators receive public recognition. Ali criticized the industry's response of character assassination when women speak about abuse. She argued that survivors face pathologization instead of support from the media and industry professionals.
Dutta recently shared a video requesting assistance while reporting harassment at her residence. She contacted law enforcement and expressed frustration about the ongoing mistreatment since the 2018 movement. The actress pleaded for intervention before her situation worsens.
