Isn’t that a formidable defence? When someone articulates the words ‘kiss you’ – either verbally or in written communication – there is likely to be a great feeling of affection, an intent of flirtation, and perhaps even a tinge of infatuation. In this case, it just happens that like any ‘ordinary’ man, Bhagat may have slipped on this verbal stimulus and tried his luck. The key point is not that Bhagat tried to kiss Trivedi, but whether he stopped when she either said ‘NO’ or turned away her face. The tragedy in this frivolous drama is that Bhagat is being pushed down from the pedestal he had acquired after much effort, and Trivedi is able to climb up the cheap ladder of publicity. In the process, the real ‘metoo’ is becoming a comedy in this sordid, tabloid style debate.
