“I called the police today. They came and advised me to file an official complaint at the station,” she said in the video. She added that she would likely visit the police station soon. “My health is deteriorating. I can’t even manage basic chores,” she explained.

In the video caption, Dutta wrote, “This has been happening since 2018, after the MeToo movement. Please help me before it’s too late.”

In 2018, Dutta had accused veteran actor Nana Patekar of sexual harassment during a film shoot. However, Mumbai police later gave Patekar a clean chit, citing lack of evidence.
