Alok Nath further said that Vineeta's allegations are the result of the ongoing #MeToo movement across the country. He acknowledged the movement and said there are many disclosures been made under this campaign, "However, we only have to hear to women's stand because they are considered weak," he added.
When asked about his clarification on people's reaction and his tainted image in the eyes of the masses after the allegation, the actor told ABP News, "What do I have to do with people? People will say anything to spoil the image. Leave my image, whatever has been said, it is absurd."
Citing his friendship with Vinta, Alok Nath said, "At one time she used to be such a good friend... today she said such a big thing. In a way, it was me who made her what she is." Ending his point on this issue, Aloknath said, "It is useless to react on the allegations as in today's world whatever a woman says, only that will be considered. In such a situation, it would be wrong to say anything."
