1. Sonakshi Sinha Comments On Deepika Padukone’s #MyChoice Video
Sonakshi Sinha believes that although Deepika Padukone’s #MyChoice video has been created with the right intention, women’s empowerment is not always about who a woman wants to have sex with.
The video has received its share of negative, biased and unbiased reviews from viewers. While some connect with its symbolic message, most believe it is a superficial attempt at addressing the issue of women’s empowerment.
Empowerment should be given to the women who actually need it & who are far away from where we are right now, in the lap of luxury.
