Amitabh Bachchan has a strong viewpoint on the issue of women’s virginity

At a recent press conference of ‘PINK’, director Shoojit Sircar and actor Amitabh Bachchan spoke about the issue of women’s virginity. The director said, “Asking women ‘are you a virgin?’ is a strong statement, but we never ask the men about the same,” to which, Amitabh Bachchan also said, “If you are asking a woman, ‘are you a virgin?’ then you should ask the same to men.”

The director also spoke about the theme of the movie that seems to be targeting the urban society. He said, “I have a language which I use in my film-making. I am born and brought up in urban areas- may that be Delhi or Mumbai. So, I understand the urban language. But I will try to take this movie to towns and villages. But this movie has its own language.”

‘PINK’ is directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury, written by Ritesh Shah, and produced by Rashmi Sharma and Shoojit Sircar. It stars Amitabh Bachchan, Taapsee Pannu, Kirti Kulhari, Andrea Tariang, Piyush Mishra, and Dhritiman Chatterjee and has released today to much appraise from critics and audience alike!
