Sharman Joshi Opens Up On #MeToo: "Maligning Someone By A Media Trial Is Unfair.” Aishwarya Devan Joins In
Sharman Joshi and Aishwarya Devan give their take on the growing #MeToo Movement in India. Both have different views
Sharman Joshi is back with another thriller Kaashi In
Search Of Ganga. A few days back, we got in touch with the actor along with his
heroine Aishwarya Devan, where they spoke at length about their movie and many
other things.
While speaking about their film, Joshi said, “It’s an
edge-of-the-seat suspense thriller. It’s a multi-layered drama and we have
gotten very complex characters to play. It very unique in its plot and I think
it’s a never told before story. I have never seen this kind of plot even
in English films and we are very excited about this film.”
The duo was further asked about the #MeToo movement. The
3 Idiots actor said, “These things should be taken to court of law. These
things shouldn’t be spoken about so loosely, because there are two people
involved and each side has a story to tell. I appreciate the #MeToo movement,
you have an issue you take it to the court.” He further added, “Just by
maligning someone and making a trial by the media is not fair for both the
parties involved.”
Adding to it, Aishwarya told us, “I have no opinion of
mine.” Further, she added, “I haven’t gone through anything, I have never seen
witnessed anything. I can’t talk about #MeToo.”
Joshi also revealed that he doesn’t shy away from
approaching directors or filmmakers. While proceeding towards the end of the
interview, we asked Sharma about his last few films (1920 London, Wajah Tum Ho,
3 Storey) which didn’t work at the box-office and how he takes it. He said, “I
concentrate and work hard on the next project that comes my way and try to
better that. I try to make it a fulfilling experience for the audience with the
next one.” The actor further added, “It’s good to be choosy on scripts.”
Watch the FULL interview above. Kaashi: In Search Of
Ganga releases this Friday (October 26).
