After actor Arjun Sarja, two more Kannada film personalities, including director Ravi Srivatsa, have been accused of sexual harassment by two women.



Actress Sanjjanaa Galrani alleged she was harassed by Srivatsa during the shoot of a

Kannada

movie 13 years ago, while activist Ekta M shared an account of her close friend accusing screenwriter of a popular contemporary movie of seeking sexual favours. Srivatsa rejected the charge and accused Galrani of making baseless allegations. The latest

charges

come days after multi-lingual actress Sruthi Hariharan, in a Facebook post praising #MeToo movement, alleged Arjun behaved with her in "lewd and complete unprofessional" manner.

Arjun, a multi-lingual actor, has said he is pained by the allegation and would file a case. Galrani claimed Srivatsa forced her to perform in certain intimate scenes for the film 'Ganda Hendathi' (husband and wife), a remake of Bollywood movie'Murder'.
