The Hema Committee report has sparked significant change within the Malayalam Film Industry, revealing widespread sexual harassment and prompting powerful figures, such as actor Siddique and director Ranjit, to resign from key positions. This report has ignited a similar call for action from Bengali actress Ritabhari Chakraborty, who has publicly demanded an investigation into the casting couch practices in the Bengali film industry. Chakraborty criticized the industry's failure to address abusive behaviors and urged West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to initiate reforms akin to those in Kerala. She expressed solidarity with young actresses entering the industry and emphasized the need to expose 'predators' who exploit women. Chakraborty's plea highlights the broader issue of systemic abuse in the entertainment sector across India, mirroring the struggles faced in the Malayalam industry. Her call to action is resonating, with other actresses encouraged to speak out against misconduct and seek accountability.
