EDITORS NOTE: This article was first published on 2 June 2019. In October 2018, hundreds of Indian women said #MeToo, narrating instances of sexual harassment and assault, especially at their workplaces. A year on, were revisiting some of the most important stories about the movement.

MUMBAI, Maharashtra I saw a headline with your photo next to Alok Nath , what did you do?

In the first week of October 2018, Tanmay Bhat fielded a worried call from his mother. As he took the call, Bhat recalled, he didnt quite know where to begin.

That week, hundreds of Indian women had taken to Twitter and Facebook to voice their anger and frustration at the pattern of persistent sexual violenceranging from harassment at the workplace to rape by strangers and familiarsthat had followed them through their lives. The men they named as harassers included Bollywood celebrities , Indias deputy foreign minister at the time , journalists , artists, lawyers, musicians, middle managers in corporate firms, CEOs, friends, former boyfriends, and family members.

In one disturbing Facebook post , filmmaker Vinta Nanda accused Alok Nath, a 62- year-old Bollywood actor known for playing the family patriarch in Sooraj Barjatya movies, of drugging and raping her almost two decades ago. Nath denied the allegations and filed a defamation case against Nanda. Two other women subsequently accused him of harassment, a police case was registered against him, and the Dindoshi court in Mumbai granted Nath anticipatory bail .

So when Bhats mother spotted her sons photograph printed next to Naths, it came as quite a shock.

My mom doesnt understand woke culture, Bhat told HuffPost India in a conversation months later. How do I explain to her that Im not the same as fucking Alok Nath?
