No
Problem
With
CBFC,
But
Society:
Ekta
Kapoor
''There
is
no
problem
with
CBFC,
my
problem
is
with
society,
which
at
some
point
speaks
about
the
same
issue
in
its
own
ways.
If
you
talk
to
any
girl,
you
will
come
to
know
about
five
to
10
such
incidents
happening
with
her
in
one
day
where,
being
a
woman,
she
has
to
prove
herself
a
little
harder.
She
has
to
learn
how
to
combat
from
a
very
young
age,''
Ekta
Said.
'The
Middle
Finger
Is
Not
For
CBFC'
Explaining
about
the
middle
finger
shown
in
the
poster
of
the
film
Lipstick
Under
My
Burkha,
Ekta
said:
"The
middle
finger
is
not
for
the
CBFC
but
pointed
towards
the
patriarchal
society
that
does
not
let
us
come
out,
which
compels
us
to
suppress
our
voice.
That
is
why
this
issue
is
not
just
CBFC's,
this
issue
is
about
ideology,
it
is
about
patriarchy."
In
Picture:
Entire
Cast
Of
The
Film
During
the
press
conference,
the
panel
consisted
of
Ekta
Kapoor,
Alankrita
Srivastava,
Konkana
Sen
Sharma,
Ratna
Pathak
Shah,
Aahana
Kumra
and
Plabita
Borthakur.
The
film,
produced
by
Prakash
Jha,
was
stuck
with
the
CBFC
for
six
months
as
it
revolves
around
four
women
and
their
sexual
desires
and
freedom.
But
finally,
the
CBFC
has
passed
the
trailer
of
the
film
with
'A' certificate.
Ratna
Pathak
Found
The
Film
Rather
Funny
Ratna
Pathak
Shah,
who
was
one
of
the
senior
most
actors
among
the
four
women
in
the
film,
said
the
film
should
not
be
loaded
with
any
label
as
it
is
difficult
to
live
with
and
she
did
this
film
as
she
found
it
very
interesting
and
funny.
'Sanitary
Napkins
Shouldn't
Be
Taxed'
She
also
addressed
the
issue
of
Goods
and
Services
Tax
(GST)
by
saying:
"Not
just
lipstick,
but
sanitary
pads
should
also
not
be
taxed
by
the
government.
It's
a
necessity
for
a
woman's
hygiene."
