Speaking out in support of the #MeToo movement, actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has said that the women talking about their experiences with sexual harassment should be given more strength and encouragement.

“The #MeToo movement has gained momentum in present times, and the world has become smaller because of social media. It’s nice to see that members of the media are becoming allied and propelling voices that need to be heard, giving them a platform. The law of the land will take over for justice to be served,” Ashwarya says.

She adds, “It wouldn’t be right to comment on individual cases, as they may be matters sub-judice. But having said that, more blessings and strength to the voices that need support.”
