Gender stereotyping has sadly been an integral part of the Indian society. Right from her childhood, a woman is told that a her job is to handle household chores and family post marriage. And it's a man's responsibility to financially support the family.
The upcoming movie Ki & Ka, is all about bending all these gender rules and portraying women as equal. The actors of the movie, Arjun Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor-Khan, shared a special video where they are seen talking about gender stereotypes in our society.
Here's their message, decoded:
If a man says he is a house-husband, the society looks down on him. Whereas, when a woman says she is a housewife, she is considered as an ideal homemaker.
But if a woman says she wants to focus on her career, she is considered as a heartless and calculative woman. However, if a man says the same, he is considered ambitious and hardworking.
Your gender doesn't define your choices, you do, as they rightly say.
