Megastar Amitabh Bachchan never forgets to talk about the social issues in India, especially those women-centric ones. He had also penned down a letter for his granddaughters Navya Naveli and Aaradhya, telling them to behave the way they want to, without coming under any sort of pressure. His hard-hitting and straightforward statements have always been famous.
Amitabh Bachchan’s latest release ‘Pink’ is already creating a lot of buzz and people just can’t stop appreciating his stupendous performance. He has essayed the character of a lawyer with sheer perfection.
Amidst all this, Mr. Bachchan talks about how embarrassing he feels when he travels abroad and sees people recognizing India as a ‘Land of rapes’.
He says;
“It’s very embarrassing when you visit a foreign country and you see people there talking to you and say, ‘Oh you are from India, the land of rape’. It’s very embarrassing. I want that to go.”
Moreover, Big B is upset with the fact that India is termed as a Third World country. He believes that if we all work together, we can make India a developed nation i.e. a First World country.
Talking about rape and women’s safety, the actor says;
“We should not say that Mumbai is safer than Delhi or vice versa. We are a country and women should be safe in every part. If an incident occurs in Delhi, the whole nation feels bad and gets worried. The issue is about the whole nation or universal”
Then he highlighted a scene from ‘Pink’ wherein Taapsee Pannu is questioned if she is a virgin or not. Now, in relation to this, he adds;
“If girls are asked about their virginity, then boys should also be questioned. There should be no discrimination. If a girl is asked there is always a question mark, as if it is something very wrong, but when it comes to boys, there is an exclamation mark denoting that they have done something great. What the film is saying has been a point of discussion for the longest time in our society. We all think about it and the makers have presented it in the form of cinema. We make our films depending on the changes and developments in the society. And the topic raised in the film is already a part of the discussion in society.”
