If you talk to any girl, you will come to know about five to 10 such incidents happening with her in one day where, being a woman, she has to prove herself a little harder. She has to learn how to combat from a very young age,3939 Ekta Said.Explaining about the middle finger shown in the poster of the film "Lipstick Under My Burkha", Ekta said: "The middle finger is not for the CBFC but pointed towards the patriarchal society that does not let us come out, which compels us to suppress our voice.

I enjoyed watching it and I think even the audience will do," said the Sarabhai vs Sarabhai actress.She also addressed the issue of Goods and Services Tax GST by saying: "Not just lipstick, but sanitary pads should also not be taxed by the government. It39s a necessity for a woman39s hygiene.""Lipstick Under My Burkha", starring Konkona Sen Sharma, Ratna Pathak Shah, Aahana Kumra, Plabita Borthakur and Vikrant Massey, has already created a great buzz among the audience.
