Bollywood actress Tanushree Dutta has been grabbing headlines for the last few years. Tanushree's name has popped up during the Me Too campaign and sometimes regarding court cases. Tanushree Dutta is an Indian actress who has shown her acting skills in many great films and represented India in the Miss Universe 2004. She was in the top 10.

Even after appearing in several hit films and working with superstars, Tanushree Dutta's career could never take off as expected. This led to Tanushree Dutta quitting acting and moving away from the limelight.
In 2018, after being away from the glitz and glamour world for a few years, Tanushree Dutta, in an interview, accused Nana Patekar of sexually harassing her on the sets of the 2009 film 'Horn 'Ok' Pleassss'.
