'MeToo problem began after women started working': Shaktimaan fame Mukesh Khanna stirs row, slammed
Mumbai/IBNS: Actor Mukesh Khanna, who earned fame by playing a superhero role in television serial Shaktimaan, stirred a massive row with his take on the sexual harassment faced by women at work places, to only get slammed by netizens.
Khanna said he believed the problem of MeToo began as women started working like men.
He said, "Women's job is to take care of their families. The problem of MeToo began when women started working. Nowadays women want to match up with men. The problem starts from here."
"Men and women are not equal," he added.
Quite obviously, Khanna is slammed by netizens for his bizarre comment.
