Sonam, who has expressed support for the #MeToo movement in the past, said that greater understanding is needed regarding the movement. "The media and all journalists do not understand the importance of the pen, your voice and its impact on a person's life. So wait, do the proper research and ask what's really going on and understand what's really going on. I promise that after the release of the movie, I will have something to say.
"But as long as things are not clear, do not make bait articles and do not play with someone else's life." This will completely derail the movement. "She then added: "I still want to believe a woman, but suppose by chance, if it's not true, then it will be for movement, especially if it's someone like Raju Hirani."

The actor Veere Di Wedding said that one had to be patient and understand better by talking about the issue. "With Tanushree Dutta (who launched the #MeToo movement in India l & # 39, last year), the article stated a lot of truth, a lot of research had been done, a lot of people had come forward, so you understand where it came from. "

Sonam said that she would like to believe every woman, but that in the case of Hirani, we must reserve her judgment. "This film is important and it does not matter If I have to sit down and talk about it, I can talk about it for a long time, but we have to pay attention to the people we are accusing and to the people we serve. You have to take sides and I do not believe in sitting on the fence, so I will take my side when it is necessary, "she said.
