farhan akhtar open letter

The Kangana Hrithik battle got uglier this week after Hrithik voiced against the actress on Arnab Goswami’s show. He openly accused the 30-year-old actress of sending him sensual messages. This bold accusation was a reply to Kangana’s interviews with Rajeev Masand, Barkha Dutt, and Rajat Sharma, in which she defamed Roshan to a derogatory extent.

Earlier this week, Hrithik’s ex-wife Sussanne Khan, came out to support Roshan. Many other B-Town celebs have voiced opinions about the Hrithik Kangana matter. Recently, Farhan Akhtar’s Facebook shared an open letter citing support for Hrithik. Farhan Akhtar’s letter was so well constructed and so deep that it almost made me numb for a while. Here’s what the actor had to say:

Isn’t this discriminating against the other party? For a moment, lets put aside emotion, prejudice, biases, our understandably protective instincts and look at the facts as they exist today. She claims they had an affair lasting 7 years and during that period, they exchanged a number of emails. While he denies ever mailing her, he has filed an official complaint, shared and submitted all necessary information and documents, handed over his personal phone and laptop to the concerned authorities. The woman has not. Apparently, she has avoided, till date, submitting her personal communication devices citing some reason or the other. In some past cases, this lack of cooperation has been deemed to be obstruction of justice. Handing over her phone and computer is not only the right thing to do morally and legally but is also the best possible way for her to prove she’s telling the truth. So why refuse or delay? Apparently, he has over a thousand emails from her official email account which is intimate and sexual in their content. She claims not to have written them but alleges that he hacked her account and mailed himself. If they were in a 7 year long mutually agreeable relationship, why would he need to do that? Does it not defy logic? Also, did he reply to any of her emails? As far as we know, No. Not one single time.

Pause here and ask yourself…
If a woman was to receive these sort of emails from a man and she claimed harassment, what would your immediate reaction be? Would you have given the man the benefit of doubt by believing him if he said they were in a relationship and she had hacked into his computer and sent herself the emails..? Chances are you wouldn’t.

There’s more. She posted a picture of them together claiming it was taken during the years of their alleged affair. That picture was proved, beyond doubt, to have been manipulated. The actual image consisted of a group of friends including the man’s wife (now ex-wife) standing together in a party. Why were the others intentionally cropped out?
She has no messages and no photographs to prove that she was in a 7-year long relationship with this man. Not even a picture of their alleged engagement in Paris, an event which he denies. Furthermore, he has asserted that his passport does not bear any stamp of travel to France during the time she alleges the engagement occurred nor are there any credible witnesses to this event. Don’t all these inconsistencies raise questions in your mind about the authenticity of the accusations? So what is the truth? Well, the truth is that WE do not know the truth. The reason I felt the need to say this is that it is apparent that some people have already jumped to conclusions while some are deriving some sort of voyeuristic pleasure by encouraging the woman to carry on speaking. This is being done without a seconds pause to consider the effect her words will have on the person, his family or his children. As great as all of it may be for TRP, it’s in terrible taste. Until such a time that the matter is brought to its logical conclusion by the authorities, we must avoid vilifying the man on the basis of unsubstantiated statements. That is what we would have done if this story had played the other way around. That’s what we must do given how it is now. Let’s not discriminate.”

Well chosen words, huh?! Now it remains to be seen what Kangana has to say about Farhan Akhtar’s open letter. Stay tuned to SocioFreak Facebook for the latest news about the Kangana Hrithik battle.

Have a nice day!
