Bhumi Pednekar Highlights Recent Crimes Against Women
Bhumi also reshared a post on her Instagram Story highlighting several recent crimes against women across the country. The post mentioned the deaths of young married women who allegedly died by suicide following harassment and dowry-related abuse by their in-laws.
The cases included Twisha Sharma’s death in Bhopal, Deepika Nagar’s death after reportedly falling from a building in Greater Noida, a newlywed woman in Uttar Pradesh found dead at her in-laws’ home, a Gwalior woman’s death within a year of marriage, and the death of a 25-year-old woman minutes after she reportedly told her sister that she was being physically assaulted by her in-laws.
Earlier, singer Chinmayi Sripaada and actors Kangana Ranaut and Ridhi Dogra had also reacted to Twisha Sharma’s death. While Kangana urged women to become financially independent before considering marriage, Ridhi appealed to young women to stop romanticising marriage and said times have changed.
Chinmayi, on the other hand, criticised the mindset of Indian parents, saying daughters are often treated like a “commodity”.
