I
have always believed that child is the father of man and have always wanted to
do something for the children of our country specially the girl child who still
faces the brunt. Our country may seem to conquer various heights but sadly we
see a lot of issues like female foeticide, infanticide that a girl child faces.
Being a woman contributing towards helping to stop these issues is a great
opportunity for me. Though, I’ve been very dedicated and proactive on my front
to participate in various campaigns acting against the atrocities of women and
children, it was my experience during the shooting of Shabri that got me even
more inclined towards the cause. It was when I interacted with the women of the
slums; being in my character I had to spend most of the time there and with
them. In a span of time I realized the hardship they faced with no one to hear
them and yet managed to get a smile on their face. More to the way a female
child was treated in comparison to a male child. Education would be a priority
for the male kid but a female could be neglected for the same. These small
little things made me realize that despite us talking about men and women being
equal there is yet discrimination. I then decided to take a stand and do my bit
to support females in the best way I can and would like appeal to all to join
me and help if not get rid then minimize the discrimination by supporting the
cause.
