Mohan Kapur Accused Of Sexually Harassing; Victim Says, “He Sent Pics Of His D*ck, Asked Me To Send Nudes”
Back in 2018, there came the MeToo wave in India. It gave courage to many women for coming forward and talking about their ordeal at the hands of sexual predators. Aashiq Banaya Aapne fame actress Tanushree Dutta initiated this march in the nation when she accused actor Nana Patekar and choreographer Ganesh Acharya of sexually abusing her on the sets of the movie Horn Ok Please. And seems like the fire of this movement is still not extinguished.
Recently, Bollywood actor and voice artist Mohan Kapur, who was seen playing the role of protagonist Kamala Khan’s father in the Disney+ Hotstar series Ms Marvel, has been accused of sexually harassing a 15-year-old girl. The victim has narrated her suffering through a series of tweets. She has revealed that Kapur send her some obscene pictures of his private part and asked her to send him her naked photos during their chat in 2020.
The viral Twitter thread from a girl named Shania reads, “When I was 14 years old, I was a fan of this serial actress & we became friends. Her partner at that time @mohankapur also became friends with me. I respected both of them almost like 2nd parents, & told them about my stressful life. But @mohankapur took advantage of me.”
“We constantly talked until I notice he started flirting with me. Then when I was 15 years old @mohankapur sent his d**k pics to me. He was apologizing nonstop & was depressed…. I forgave him. But after that, he continued to harass me. Said things like how he was in love with me, wanted to marry me, wanted me to grow up to be with him, and can’t wait for me to get older so I can sleep with him. Now I know that @mohankapur was grooming me,” she added.
Disclosing her last conversation with Mohan, she penned, “My depression got worst and I was planning to take my own life…. I kept on calling @mohankapur… he ignore my calls… and at times told me to get over it. Then completely twist the whole story to make me look like a bad person… he kept on saying that he can’t trust me…The last time I talked to @mohankapur was in 2020 and I was crying… I said I really can’t take any of this anymore…. Hoping that he would apologize & understand the trauma he had caused. Instead, he told me that he can’t trust me and the only way he can trust me again is if I hop on video chat and send nudes to him to be friends with him again. #metoo @IndiaMeToo #MeToo.”
The 57-year-old actor and his ex-partner haven’t reacted to the accusations but Mohan has restricted his Twitter handle.
For the unversed, Mohan Kapur has dubbed for famous Hollywood actors like Dwayne Johnson (Fast and Furious), Tom Hardy (The Dark Knight Rises), Nicolas Cage (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice), and Jackie Chan (The Karate Kid). Besides this, he has appeared in various Bollywood films and TV shows.
