Shenaz Treasurywala's Open Letter: Is it a Publicity Stunt for Main Aur Mr. Riight?https://www.facebook.com/shehnaztreasury

Actress Shenaz Treasurywala's open letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other influential celebs, which talks about her experience with sexual assault has shocked millions across the globe.

While many have empathised with her and praised her bold move, some feel that it is just a publicity stunt for her movie "Main Aur Mr Riight", which hits screens on 12 December.

Some readers are of the opinion that the letter is Shenaz's desperate attempt to garner attention for her latest release "Main Aur Mr. Riight". Interestingly, a few people who slammed the actress' gimmick on Twitter are women.

The model-turned actress started her career as a VJ on MTV "Most Wanted". She made her acting debut with Telugu film "Eduruleni Manishi" in 2001. Having forayed into Bollywood with 2003 film "Ishq Vishk", she has appeared as character artiste in some big ticket Hindi movies. She is now seen playing the female lead in "Main Aur Mr. Riight".

Extremely confused abt this. Seems like a plea but also is it just another publicity stunt? #ShenazTreasurywala

Not sure which side I lean on on this whole if #ShenazTreasurywala open letter is a publicity stunt or not. Bottom line, stunt or not #ShenazTreasurywala has everyone talking about an issue that matters if she gets public attention frm it, why not

Even if its a publicity stunt, what she says is VALID. Ask any woman who has taken public transport in India. #ShenazTreasurywala
