"HAVE FILED AN FIR... WHAT HAPPENED TO US IS WRONG..!" - SAMYUKTHA HEGDE!

Enraged and distraught at the incident, Samyuktha shared videos from the spot on social media. In a recent statement with a image she had drawn mirroring her protest against the incident, the actress wrote the following.

"Without getting into the details of the incident, what happened to us was wrong. It is high time that society stops harassing women for what we wear, where we go and what we do. We see it happen everyday and we are told to move on. It is disturbing to be continuously subject to such harassment and I do not want any other woman to go through this trauma. We cannot be intimidated in this manner...

"I have filed an FIR with the police and I have full faith that a fair investigation will be carried out. I hope that this incident makes us all reflect on how women are treated and the consequences of moral policing. I hope that there is a better future for us and a safe space for us to just be ourselves and continue doing what we love. PS: I express myself best with art #thisiswrong #myartoftheday #womenempowerwomen."
