Controversial:

On 26 September 2018, Dutta gave an interview to Zoom TV in which she accused Nana Patekar of ***ually harassing her on the sets of the 2009 film Horn 'Ok' Pleassss.[ This was a catalyst for the "Me Too" movement in India. Dutta had first made the allegations against Patekar in 2008, filing a complaint with the Cine & TV Artists Association (CINTAA) but no action was taken as the case was considered a criminal case. The allegation was repeated in 2013 in an interview, and again largely ignored. It was not until her September 2018 statements that the CINTAA apologized to Dutta, admitting that the "chief grievance of ***ual harassment wasn't even addressed [in 2008]" but added that since the case was more than three years old, they could not reopen it.

Janice Sequeira, a journalist, backed her allegations, claiming to be an eyewitness of the incident. She also alleged that filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri had told her to remove her clothes and dance with Irrfan Khan to act on the sets of Chocolate (2005). She said Khan and Sunil Shetty stood up for her during this episode. Agnihotri refuted all allegations and shared that it is an attempt to get publicity by Dutta and to malign his image in a legal notice sent to her.[20] The assistant director of Chocolate, Sattyajit Gazmer, also dismissed Dutta's claims.



In another interview, Dutta said, "He [Patekar] called the MNS party to bash up my car. He was behind everything and was supported by choreographer Ganesh Acharya."In a video from 2008 that went viral on the internet, it was seen the journalists and not the MNS were seen thrashing Dutta's car. A journalist named Pawan Bharadwaj was seen thrashing the car's windshield with his camera, who later clarified that he attacked her car because he had a fight with Dutta's team prior to the incident.

Mahrashtra Navnirman Sena filed a defamation case against Dutta.She was also served with two legal notices from Patekar and Agnihotri. Subsequently, on 6 October, Dutta filed an FIR at Oshiwara police station against Patekar; director of Horn 'Ok' Pleassss, Rakesh Sarang; choreographer Acharya and producer Sami Siddiqui.

On 13 October 2018, Dutta's advocate Nitin Satpute submitted an application at the Oshiwara police station in Mumbai saying that actor Nana Patekar, choreographer Ganesh Acharya, producer Samee Siddiqui and director Rakesh Sarang be made to undergo narco-analysis, brain mapping and lie detector tests.

In June 2019, Patekar was cleared of the ***ual harassment charges by the police. The B-Summary report filed by the Oshiwara police station in Mumbai said that the complaint filed by Tanushree could be "malicious" and "out of revenge".

Tanushree Dutta (pronounced [t̪ənʊʃri]; born 19 March 1984) is an Indian former actress, model and beauty pageant titleholder who won Femina Miss India Universe 2004 and then represented her country at Miss Universe 2004 in Ecuador where she placed Top 10.


Dutta has appeared in mostly Hindi films from 2005 to 2010. Some of her best known films includes Aashiq Banaya Aapne, Bhagam Bhag and Dhol. In September 2018, after having been out of the Bollywood spotlight for several years, Dutta gave an interview to Zoom TV in which she accused Nana Patekar of ***ually harassing her on the sets of the 2009 film Horn 'Ok' Pleassss. It was a catalyst for the "Me Too" movement in India

Family, Husband, Boy Friends, Kids

Tanushree was born in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, India, on 19 March 1984.As of September 2018, Tanushree is a permanent resident of the US.
Dutta has dated Aditya Datt. Ishita Dutta Sheth is her younger sister. In an interview in 2013, she said that she hit depression after being traumatized on the sets of Horn 'Ok' Pleassss.

  • Ali Asgar
    becomes the first contestant to bid adieu to the show; says 'It is an emotional moment for me' T
    he intensity of the competition switches into high gear as the first elimination strikes. It came down to two contestants - Zorawar Kalra and Ali Asgar and although the judges scores were equal, it was ultimately the public’s vote which led to the elimination of none other than the multifaceted, actor-comedian Ali Asgar and his choreographer partner, Lipsa. Leaving the audiences in shock, Ali Asgar bid farewell to the stage on an emotional note. In the wake of the first elimination, the remaining contestants are now more determined than ever to showcase a volley of impressive performances. Ali Asgar’s dance stint with the show was marked by many special moments and highlights. The theme of this weekend’s episodes was family. The contestants and their choreographers drew inspiration from the hardships they endured in their lives and the one person whom they look up to for strength. Ali channeled the ridicule he faced for essaying women on-screen. Celebrated for his wit and sense of humour, the actor-comedian had an emotional moment on stage after seeing an A/V of his kids talking about their experiences while growing up, as their father mostly depicted female characters on screen. Karan Johar applauded him for having been an actor for 35 years and prayed that the industry acknowledges his work.
  • Talking about his short yet memorable journey on the show, Ali Asgar says, “I am a performer, whether it is playing ‘Daadi’ or dancing, I have always enjoyed every aspect of my career as an actor and as an entertainer. It is an emotional moment for me to be eliminated from this epic dance battle, but I’m happy that the show has given me a new identity. I got the chance to explore a new facet of my personality. I can’t thank COLORS enough for giving me this opportunity and my brilliant choreographer Lipsa for making this journey so memorable. I will miss the rehearsals with the team and meeting these amazing stars and performing with them. I would like to express my gratitude to my fans for supporting me throughout my career and hopefully, they will be by my side as I move on to my next adventure.”

Sachin Pilgaonkar approached for Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa; the seasoned actor declines the offer politely:
 
Sources close to the show informed us that the makers of the show were keen on having the celebrated actor as one of the contestants this season. However, Sachin is not doing the show and he has declined the offer politely. We reached out to the senior actor and he shared, "Yes, I was approached for the show, but I am not doing it. We won another reality show, Nach Baliye in 2005 and it is very fresh in the audience's minds. They still remember Supriya and me as the winners of that show. So there's no point in doing Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. That age was different, this age is different, one has to take all the things into consideration. There's no point in indulging into any kind of competition as a participant. I wish them all the best from my side for their show." 
Other contestants, who have been approached for Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa are Erica Fernandes and Adaa Khan. 
The last season of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa aired in 2016-2017. After that, the makers of the show decided to pull it down due to low TRPs but now the channel has decided to get back the dance reality show, and the pre-production has begun. Reportedly, Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa's new season is all set to begin from August last week or September. 
Kajol is not going to judge the upcoming tenth season of 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' which goes on air in September.  
The show is coming back after 5 years, it's last edition being in 2017.

Judges:

  • For those who have sharp ears, buzz about Kajol coming on board were being heard. But now it is final that it is going to be Madhuri Dixit and not Kajol. Did Kajol decline it for some reason? Seems so.
  • Madhuri was a judge on this dance reality show until 2014, after which we saw Shahid Kapoor and Jacqueline Fernandez. But now, no Jacqueline, no Shahid - not this season.
  • ETimes has it that Dixit finalised the deal only a couple of days ago. "For her, it will be a homecoming. She did a fairly good job for the number of seasons she judged and it is expected that this time will be no exception. It would have been equally exciting to see the exuberant Kajol as a judge, but some things don't go the way you envisage. We are now looking forward for the drama on 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' to begin. Two months more to go," according to a source.
