“Neither am I denying this nor do I would agree with it. It (rape) must have happened, but someone else would have done it. Well, I do not want to talk much about it or it will be stretched,” the Hindustan Times quoted him as saying. He also said that it was “useless” to comment on such allegations as the world had become biased towards women. He also termed the charges “absurd” adding that they were an attempt to spoil his image. After the allegations surfaced on social media, actor Sushant Singh of Cine and TV Artiste’s Association (CINTAA) apologised to Nanda. He added that a show-clause notice would be sent to Nath and urged her to file a complaint against him. Many film and television personalities such as Swara Bhasker, Shruti Seth and Sai Tamhankar condemned Nath’s actions and extended their support to Nanda.
