Didn’t want it to affect the film: Kriti on #MeToo

Actor Kriti Sanon says when the #MeToo allegations surfaced against Houseful 4 director Sajid Khan and her co-star Nana Patekar, the team took swift actions as they were focused on not letting it affect the final product.
Sajid stepped down from the project following multiple sexual misconduct accusations against him. He was replaced by writer Farhad Samji as the director.
Nana, too, distanced himself from the comedy after being accused of harassment by actor Tanushree Dutta. He was replaced by actor Rana Daggubati.
“It was weird to be on set with all that going on. Someone else directing us suddenly in the middle of the film. But I give it to producer Sajid Nadiadwala sir, he took certain decisions and handled it very well. We didn’t stop shooting for more than two days,” she said.
The actor says the team, including actors Akshay Kumar, Kriti Kharbanda, Bobby Deol, Ritiesh Deshmukh and Pooja Hegde, were focused on the film and deliver a final product. (PTI)
