The question of whether Art can be separated from the Artist has long plagued the world of cinema, as perturbing practices such as the “casting couch” have been a reality in these circuits for a long period of time. It has also been seen that not only have allegations of sexual misconduct and inappropriate behaviour been suppressed time and again by the media managers of powerful directors, actors and producers, but the works by these artists have continued to be revered even after such accusations have managed to make their way into the public eye. Very often, while the careers of such artists have prospered successfully without being blighted, those who levelled the accusations against them have vanished into obscurity. In all this, the question itself continues to persist without any lucid answer from the stakeholders of this industry.
