It is time for women to own their sexuality, says Konkana Sen Sharma!



Lipstick Under My Burkha is not only a film but is going to be a revolution in the Indian cinema. The movie starring Konkana Sen Sharma and Ratna Pathak, Aahana Kumra, Plabita Borthakur, Sushant Singh, Vikrant Massey and Shashank Arora has been in the news for its loud and controversial content.

After getting appreciated in the International film festivals, the movie also faced major issues from the CBFC for its release it India.

Talking at an event of the movie, film’s producer Ekta Kapoor and film’s actors Konkana Sen Sharma and Ratna Pathak spoke their heart out against CBFC and the ban against the movie.

Talking about the middle-finger lipstick poster Ekta told at the event, “The pic does not draw the line. The film is about the women are scared to feel and we are we are shy about simple sexual fantasies.”

She added, “I don't have any issue with CBFC. I have a problem with society. It is a big issue when a woman has to prove herself every time. If she is smart woman I'd she is beautiful.”

Speaking about the controversial poster, she told it is for the society, it is about ideology and it is a patriarchy.

Talking on the previous ban on the movie, Konkana, who will be seen in a prominent role in the movie told, “We don't have right the way man do. They are aggressive not only in India but around the world. It's time for a woman to own their sexuality.

Talking on the same lines, actress Ratna Pathak told, “It would be premature to call it or label it with movement as labels are hard to live with. The film is extremely sensitive and I enjoyed the film.”

Lipstick Under My Burkha's new poster was out lately and it went instantly viral on the internet. The poster has a woman raising her middle finger and it is said to be a subtle dig at the CBFC, who had earlier refused to certify the movie terming it to be 'too lady oriented'. However, the film was then allowed to release after the Tribunal asked them to.
The official trailer of the controversial film, Lipstick Under My Burkha, is finally out. The film is slated to release on July 21, 2017.
