The

Hema Committee report

is out after being on hold for more than a decade, and the

Mollywood industry

is experiencing unexpected turbulence following the shocking revelations in the report about

casting couch practices

, workplace harassment, and more. Now, actress and politician

Khushboo Sundar

has reacted to the report. In her recent chat with

ETimes

, Khushboo shared how happy she is for the women who fought for this report to be released and stood strong against all odds.

Khushboo told us, “Yes, I’m glad there were women who stood together and wanted to bring dignity to the workplace. This is their victory. Somebody had the courage to do it. They think that we need to put a full stop. Everything started in Hollywood when they began the

Me Too movement

. That’s when this gained momentum, and they said, okay, we have these kinds of issues happening in Malayalam cinema as well. And we need to address it. It was probably about a few more women who have been through this kind of ordeal, and they wanted to bring justice to it.”

When asked whether this report will change the work culture by instilling fear in men working in the industry, the actor-politician added, “I don’t think that happens now. Probably all these women are talking about something that happened 15-20 years ago. But now it’s different. Now the girls come from very decent families. Girls are educated. The entire working atmosphere is different. So, I don’t think… I have always said that I haven’t been subjected to this kind of torture. I was literally brought up in the film industry. Right from the age of 8, I’ve been in the film industry. So, I haven’t seen anything like this. But yes, I have heard stories.”

She concluded, “I think it’s definitely a victory for the women who stood together, who believed that we need to put a full stop to this. And if it brings some kind of fear among the men in the industry, who think that they can probably get away with it, then it’s well and good. Somebody has to do it. Somebody has to cast the first stone. It has to come out of the belief that ‘it has to be a male-dominated world, we are the strongest, the best.’ But we know what happens. It’s a complete victory for these women who have stood together.”
