In times when women are speaking for themselves and sharing their horrifying experiences, television actress Shilpa Shinde has rubbished the MeToo movement. She feels there is nothing like a rape in the industry and whatever happens between two people is mutual.

While talking to Times Now, Shilpa said, "It's rubbish. You have to take a call that time only, it's simple. You should speak about that matter that time only. Even I got a lesson. Jab hota hai, tabhi bolo - baad mei bolne ka koi faayeda nahi, it's useless. Baad mei aap voice raise karte ho, usko koi nahi sunega, just controversy hogi - nothing else. You have to take a call that time only when it happens and obviously, you need power."

"This industry is not bad and it's not very good. Everywhere these things happen. I don't know why khud hi industry ka naam kharaab kar rahe hai. (why is everyone themselves spoiling the name of the industry). So those who are working and they got work - sab hi log kharaab hai? (Is everyone wrong?) Aisa nahi hai, it totally depends on you. Aapse saamne waala insaan kaise react karta hai, aap usko kaise answer karte ho. (how someone reacts to you and how you react to someone) It's totally a give and take policy. Women are speaking now but at that time also I said that there's no rape in this industry - zabardasti nahi hota. (it's not forced) Whatever has happened in our industry, it's a mutual understanding. It's a mutual thing. If you are not ready to do that, just leave that thing,"she added.

The last few days have been an eye-opener not just for Indian women but men as well. Finally, the dirty secrets are making their way in media circuit and reaching the masses. Molestation, casting couch and sexual harassment cases are not restricted to any one industry.

Several big names like Nana Patekar, Chetan Bhagat, Rajat Kapoor, Kailash Kher, Vikas Bahl, Sajid Khan, former Bigg Boss contestant Zulfi Syed and veteran actor Alok Nath have been named in the #MeToo incidents in India.
