Kailash Kher has been scheduled to deliver a talk as a part of the TEDx Gateway on February 23. The official Twitter handle of #MetooIndia tagged TEDx to highlight the fact that multiple women had ‘accused Kailash Kher of sexual harassment.’ Along with the tweet, the handle shared Sona’s 2018 tweet where she had written about Kher touching her inappropriately while making sweet talks.
