Hindustan Times  

Singer Sona Mohapatra fired back at a Twitter user for dragging her father into an attack on her. Sona Mohapatra hit out at a Twitter user for making unsavoury comments about her father. The Twitter user seemed to take a dig at Sona’s views and stand on the #MeToo movement and commented on the photo, “I hope he is not a rapist, because u find all men ‘rapists’.” Sona called the woman out for making such a comment and wrote, “This ‘proud Indian’ MRA is happy to put: 1)Words in my mouth that I have never uttered,believed. 2)Tag my Naval war veteran father in this manner.” Earlier this month, Sona opened up about receiving a barrage of comments on her new music video - Heere Heere - doubting her #MeToo claims on the basis of her clothing. “Many comments on my latest music video on social media telling me about how they disbelieve my @IndiaMeToo call outs considering I wear such vulgar clothes & am likely to be ‘lying’ & possibly the kind of woman who likes men to misbehave with her apart from other BS,” she wrote on Twitter.
