Bhumi Pednekar talks about feminism and women equality

Recently in an interview with an online publication, Bhumi Pednekar said that she believes Saand Ki Aankh highlights the inequality towards women that exists even today in society. Backing up her statement, the actor said that women have faced inequality in our country. However, a bunch of bold and courageous women broke those age-old moulds of discrimination, to bring about an evolution of equality in our country, she added. Bhumi corroborated her choice of words with the movie saying that Chandro and Prakashi started a revolution. Unknowingly they were a part of a system that didn't give them any opportunities cause the society just didn't know better, but they didn't want the same for their daughters and granddaughters. The Shubh Mangal Saavdhan star also added that she is inspired by the Tomar sisters.
