Returning to the silver screen after quite a hiatus, Shamita Shetty marks her return to the theatres with a strong, impactful story of a single, independent woman. As the film releases today, Shamita pours her heart out in a social media post urging her fans to watch the film.
With pictures that offer glimpses into the film, Shamita Shetty posted on social media saying, “A film that I’m so proud off. A story that needs to be told for all women out there who have been time and again subjected to Patriarchy, lack of privacy, sexism or constant judgement for what they wear or just how they are !!!!
The journey of Meera in The Tenant is especially close to my heart having been subjected to a lot of constant judgement in my life.. very few wanted to understand my story but were constantly so quick to judge.
