What Sonali, Shriya and Jaideep said

During the interview, Shriya began: “People haven't googled the definition of feminism. Feminism is equal rights, it's not one-upmanship and I think unknowingly a lot of people are feminists already but they somehow don't call themselves that because they think feminism is ‘male-bashing.'” Jaideep nodded in agreement.

Sonali shared her thoughts and said, "The definition has taken on this connotation of ‘male-bashing’ which a lot of us are not comfortable with. I am not comfortable with ‘male-bashing.’ We are looking for equal rights and you want equal rights not up and down. Again that is an imbalance. What you want is a balance and either way when the scale moves and there's no balance, then there is a problem.

More details

It all started when Nora Fatehi told in a recent interview on The Ranveer Show, that, “Feminism. I don't believe in this s***. In fact, I think, feminism f***** up our society completely… A lot of men now have also been brainwashed by feminism era...if a man can work on being more of a provider, and protector, the women can then focus on being more of the nurturer.”

The Broken News 2, directed by Vinay Vaikul, revolves around the interlink between politicians and media, which has the ability to influence the future of elections. It also stars Indraneil Sengupta, Taaruk Raina, Faisal Rashid, and Sanjeeta Bhattacharya. The Broken News 2 will be streaming on ZEE5 from May 3 onwards.
