Hrithik-Kangana controversy has already gauged a lot of attention and many people are voicing their opinions by taking sides on Roshan and Ranaut from the industry as well as outsiders.

The latest one to join the debate is Farhan Akhtar and Yami Gautam.

In an open letter, Farhan Akhtar wrote, “Although it is true that in most cases it is a woman that has been wronged, there is a difference between ‘most’ and ‘all’.  However few and rare they may be, there have been cases where men have been stalked, harassed and falsely accused. This reality has been accepted by the highest courts of our land.”

Similarly, Yami Gautam wrote, “People have presumed that since he is a man, he must be the guilty party, since that is how it has always been. Men have oppressed women in one way or another for centuries, and it’s being presumed that it is the same in this case, too. And that’s dangerous. Whatever happened to innocent, until proven guilty?”
