00:02Bollywood actress Bhumi Pednikar has strongly condemned the online abuse and threats directed
00:09at a young girl who was part of a recent protest, formally stated that rape and death threats are
00:15unacceptable. Sharing a video on her social media account, Bhumi requested people to not
00:22harass somebody and highlighted the long-term impact such harassment can have on person's
00:28mental health.
00:29I saw a video on the internet where a young girl who was in protest was giving an interview
00:35and she looked visibly broken and shaken. She was a video that was viral and she was getting
00:42non-stop rape threats and death threats. She was getting her mother and her family and that
00:49is unacceptable. We cannot bully a young girl. We can't put a serious psychosis in a young
00:58way. As women, anyways, we have a lot of harassment. And as a public figure, I have gone through
01:05this experience. I can't tell you how deep and lasting impact it has on someone's mental health.
01:10We all just want one thing, that it is the country's progress, it is the country's progress,
01:14it is the country's progress, it is the country's progress. And together with each other,
01:17we will keep the right words, if we keep the right word, we will see the right word.
01:24The caption of her post read, Rape and death threats are unacceptable.
01:29Aggression is unacceptable. Let's stop all this.
01:33Talking about her work friend, the actress was last seen in the OTT series Daldal.
01:39Bhoomi Pednikar's upcoming project includes a much-awaited romantic comedy in which she will
01:45be seen opposite Imran Khan. She also has the second season of Daldal lined up.
