Kangana Ranaut: Kangana Ranaut's 'Queen' to have a sequel? | Hindi Movie  News - Times of IndiaMany women in India don’t have the liberty to go around the world, work, and almost get entangled in their own homes. It’s high time we understand that women need to be acknowledged and be treated equally as that of man. We got to realize how brave women are in both physical and mental ways. Discrimination against women has been a process that has been running in India for a long time. Parents prefer their sons more than that of a daughter which leads to the youth having a biased opinion later. Dowry related violence has been running for a longer time. The women were merely treated as just a caretaker of the family. She has to look after the children and in-laws at home. she has to use her husband’s expenses more reasonably. She had to look after everything but when coming to the major decision of the family, she isn’t allowed to make a decision and is cut off. The women at ancient times were merely treated as a slave without a proper wage. Men used to feel ashamed to share household chores with his partner assuming it would make them less of a man. 

The other city is presently becoming way better in treating women, though this idea of male supremacy is still being believed too. We as women need to come forward to speak out about the crime and abuses that each one of us faces and contribute to the idea of gender equality. In 2020, the presence of women is being felt everywhere. A woman is flying an airplane to women doing business all alone.

There are so many lessons to be learned from this movie. This movie is very empowering to every one of us and is a must-watch. We should start promoting movies that give beneficial information rather than spreading information about toxic masculinity or movies that portray the wrong message.
