A sick man first should be treated… Probably his treatment should have been started in his younger days… When a man becomes a different personality under influence of alcohol, and does not remember about the last incident… Alok Nath’s statement against SH has a hint of it. If he was under treatment back than many women would have been saved from his abuse… In media trail one forgets to be rational. What he has done is unacceptable, unforgiving but a […]
For last 5 years I am sincerely working and spear heading woman empowerment and safety. Also collaborating with various corporate offices on SHW policies for safe working conditions… After empowering 11 lakh individuals across Maharashtra state and in cities like Indore, Hyderabad and Bangalore. I take some liberty to question the situation and coming up with right solutions. 1. Why me too movement should only be restricted to Bollywood when women are facing this in all industries… Why the women […]
Let’s be real – Dutta… I condemn hooliganism and bulling an individual… & am against sexual assault of any kind at any place… But there are few things I want to understand: let’s be real… 1. After such a huge public announcement of sexual harassment, how are you going ahead to get justice ? It is not clear from any of your interviews. 2. Are you going to file FIR or a court case against the abuser. As legal justice […]
“What is a film? A film is nothing. I already have four offers” – Kangana Ranaut in today’s TOI… I admire woman who is strong and have fought for their prominent place in any industry… It takes courage and guts to do so & it is simply not easy to be blunt & straight forward with your thoughts… Having said that, it also makes me feel bad when such a woman looks down upon her own work which gave her […]
I saw him first at the beach shy, dark & tall… He saw me standing near his contessa… Excuse me was the reason for the first look & we knew there is something more to this, we introduced each other & left… But ye dil mange more… I managed to get his number & with shivering hands called him on his land-line… The hello which sounded not so confident made me have shivers… With some guts I said my name […]
Today’s article in TOI about the flesh trade should not have come as an eye opener… As today everyone around is looking for casual sex without any string attached… The numerous dating apps and social media have been a regular platform for these kind of activities… Without realizing entire society is thriving on this act thus shifting the focus from brothels to our neighborhood… Am I against casual sex? No, that is every individuals decision… But do that individual knows […]
A loads is said & written about it, pointing fingers at opposite genders for taking advantage of certain situations at work. Whom is to be blamed ? The victim or the abuser? In my opinion it is both & even more is the victim. Yes you read it right? Because every victim has a right to stop anything that goes against the wish, to stop someone from touching the body, to rebel at the point when the person is about […]
Dear single self, (friends) When world is celebrating love, you might feel left out… Probably alone, miserable & jealous of those who are in love… The dream you always see of being in a pair seems never to materialise, the desires of carefree cuddles & those tight hugs left you craving for more… Your faith in love vanishing with each passing day and the crazy heart still couldn’t figure out can love be gambled for a day… More than Single […]
Dear MNS, How to take advantage of any situation ( political, cultural & communal) to be in news for limelight is best learnt from your party… I believe when a party does not have a clear agenda for their progress, it allows it’s party men to use power thru vandalism & hooliganism… Do your party men ever think before vandalising, it takes blood, sweat & money to build & create houses, public properties, private projects… For you it’s a one […]
Dear Suman Sharma, (Rajasthan state commission for women chairperson) I see your concern when you say: Girls must not visit pubs & drink… TOI pg11 But do you feel is it a right way forward, fyi I am at ground zero dealing with such issues working with girls coming out of age & seeking to live life on their will… Banning or curbing Girl’s freedom in times of gender equality & empowerment is very impractical step… May it be an […]
