He was quoted as saying: "C & # 39; was absolutely shocking when I read the article. The team of Ek Ladki Ko … made the decision to revoke his film credit and I respect and fully uphold it. "

" Whenever such an allegation is made, there must be an investigation when both parties put their points through. Only then can we conclude with enlightened judgment. It is only after we know exactly what happened. It's the least we can do.

Rajkummar adds that he is not aware of the details of the case, but that he feels sad for the woman. He said "I feel very bad for the woman" and hoped that it would only be after an adequate investigation that one could form a more enlightened opinion.

When asked why many people in Bollywood were silent about this, Rajkummar said that they were perhaps shocked and that they wanted to hear his version of the story before speaking. He also explained how men were very aware of what they say now and how they behave as a result of the #MeToo movement.

During the promotion of the film, Sonam was questioned about the Hirani affair. In response to questions, she stated that she would like to reserve her judgment and be very responsible before saying anything about it, as this could derail the #MeToo movement.

In an interview with HuffPost, published on January 3, an badistant to Raju Hirani accuses him of badual harbadment during the making of Sanju. She stated that the harbadment continued from March 2018 to September 2018 when her father had a terminal illness and died.
