_Thugs of Hindostan_ , spoke about not sharing her #MeToo story, and how sexual assault has been normalised to the extent that women tend to just accept it. “I don’t want to expose that side of my life… I’m dealing with it, speaking to people I’m close to. Just like I won’t judge those who want to share their horror stories, I expect not to be judged for not sharing mine,” the actress told Pune Mirror.
