How not to handle a #MeToo case #MeTooIndia

facebook.com/BangaloreTimes…

This is Sanjjannaa Galrani, a Kannada film actor who has been coerced into apologizing for sharing her #MeToo story. In this video, she is with Nagendra Prasad, President, Kannada Film Directors' Association
I have attempted to transcribe the gist of this video.
Sanjjannaa: I haven't done this with the intention of maligning anyone. Several people in the association have taken this personally, they have been hurt. I've also listened to senior actors Ambareesh, Rockline (Venkatesh) and Doddanna, and have arrived at this decision...
...some people felt that what I shared was wrong. Some were hurt by what I shared. Whoever may have been hurt, could be the director and team of 'Ganda Hendathi', or directors..
Nagendra Prasad interrupts: Not could have, the directors have been hurt

Sanjjanaa continues: ...director of Ganda Hendathi, the entire team...I did not mean to hurt your feelings. Suppose I have hurt your feelings...
Nagendra Prasad interrupts: You have. There's no suppose in this. You have.

Sanjjanaa: Sir, I have feelings too.

Nagendra Prasad: Whether you did this intentionally or unintentionally, that you've hurt them is true, and that's what I'm saying.
Sanjjanaa: I have been hurt too. I don't want to drag this along anymore.

Nagendra Prasad: This isn't about dragging (the issue). Don't say "if" they've been hurt. We have been hurt and that's why we're asking you to say sorry.
Sanjjanaa: That's what I'm saying. I don't want to drag this or malign the name of the industry. I am saying sorry to the directors' association.
