Kriti Kharbanda says that people like Harvey Weinstein exist everywhere. “I feel that bad people exist everywhere. I’ve always maintained that it is not the industry that is good or bad, it’s the people. People like Harvey will exist everywhere, be it the corporate world or the entertainment industry. Don’t be naive and allow a man to take advantage of you,” said Kriti.
“If sleeping around with people is the way dreams come true, then the entire world would choose this as an option. Honestly, it is probably the easiest way of doing it. Please don’t fall for crap. People like him (Harvey) will cease to exist the second you stop giving in to them. Nevertheless, people like him should be punished,” she added.

“We are not against the movie as such. What we want is that Bhansali’s team should screen the movie for historians and intellectuals before releasing it as we are afraid and concerned that historical facts have been distorted in the movie,” Vishavbandhu Rathore, Pradesh Mahasachiv Sri Rajput Karni Sena, a Rajput community organisation, said.
Protests against Padmavati are taking place in Rajasthan and Gujarat.
