India’s Sons: Documentary Inspires Men To Voice Their Side Of The Story

The other lane to Leslee Udwin’s 2015’s India’s Daughter, a documentary called India’s Sons by Deepika Bhardwaj is urging men to speak up against false accusations. Soured by patriarchy, men for the longest time have silenced their tears, blinked their tears inside for fear of what the society would think of him. To liberate men against false accusation while also inspiring to speak up against abuse, Bhardwaj’s documentary focuces on men falsely charged. 

A documentary that cautions that its purpose is not intended ‘to undermine crime against women but bring a fore of problem that’s a threat to idea of Equality, Justice and Fair Trail’ the doc features story told by men and the false rape charges held against them.

The documentary is still in production and Deepika Bhardwaj talking about its release said, "This crowdfund will help us with post-production, marketing, screenings and distribution of the film and also take it to nook and corners of the world,"

#IndiasSons I recommend everyone should watch it. Men are not just who are only for protecting the #women
Laws should be altered. #genderequity is applicable for all Males and Females. Laws should also act in the same way. And have to protect the victims either it is Male/female.
