Aamir Khan condemned the Bengaluru molestation incident and said that it was an extremely shameful and saddening. New Year turned into a nightmare for several women who were molested despite having a huge police presence on the scene.
“What happened in Bangalore was very sad. We all are saddened and feel ashamed when something like this happens in our country. Every state government should take a step for this,” Aamir Khan told reports. He feels that it is high time the law and order become strong and works rapidly to set an example.
“You see in America, if an incident like this happens, within two-three months the guilty person is punished and the case is closed. When this happens, I feel there will be a big change. In today’s age, people who misbehave with girls think ‘nothing will happen to us’. When such examples come in front of us, that whoever did this is behind bars within 2-3 months, and continuously if we see this, the situation will change. There will be fear among people, which is a very important thing.” He added
Many Bollywood actors took it to Twitter and posted:

#NotAllMen because in an incident involving the molestation of women, random men were the real victims.
