Samantha Ruth Prabhu Calls for Harassment Report Release

Samantha Ruth Prabhu has publicly urged the Telangana government to release a subcommittee report on sexual harassment submitted by The Voice of Women, a support group in the Telugu film industry. Her call comes in the wake of the recently published Hema Committee report, which exposed severe instances of harassment and exploitation within the Malayalam film industry, leading to FIRs against several notable figures. In her Instagram post, Samantha praised the Women in Cinema Collective (WCC) for their relentless advocacy for women's rights and safety in the workplace. She emphasized that a similar report for the Telugu film industry could help shape effective policies to protect women. The Hema Committee report has sparked a significant movement, encouraging more women to share their experiences and prompting discussions on gender equality within the industry. Samantha’s stance reflects a growing demand for accountability and safer working conditions for women across all film industries.
