A relationship gone sour, isn’t #MeToo someone needs to recognise the toxic difference before we go picking sides.

I stand by #NawazuddinSiddiqui or #Nowaz as a man.
I stand by the fact that although Niharika Singh may have had a tough time in the industry, categorising her once personal relationship as a #MeToo statement is incorrectly placed. We as humans are flawed. That isn’t gender specific.

In her account, Singh had described Siddiqui as a “sexually repressed Indian man, whose toxic male entitlement grew with his success.” He is yet to comment on the allegations posed against him. In 2017, Singh, along with Siddiqui’s former girlfriend Sunita Rajwar , had criticised him for "exploiting and disrespecting" women to sell his autobiography, An Ordinary Life, which was later withdrawn by the publisher.
