Mehreen Pirzada of 'Krishna Gaadi Veera Prema Gadha' and 'F2' fame was recently seen in the Hindi-language web series 'Sultan Of Delhi', streaming on Disney Plus Hotstar. In the series, the actress was seen in a scene depicting marital rape. The same has been described by social media users and a section of the media as a bold, intimate scene.
Taking to social media on Tuesday, Mehreen said that she is pained to see that a "serious issue like marital rape has been described by many in the media" as sex. She opined that such inappropriate descriptions only trivialize something that is a "serious issue that many women the world over are currently dealing with."
She further wrote, "It disturbs me that a certain section of the media and people on social media have picked up on this. These people should understand that they have sisters and daughters too and I pray to god they never have to go through such trauma in their own lives as just the thought of such brutality and violence against women is repugnant."
Mehreen will soon be seen in the pan-India release 'Spark', which is going to hit the cinemas on November 17. The action thriller has Vikranth in the lead and has been made by Telugu talents.
