Actress Anushka Sharma has written a note on Instagram, amidst the ongoing protests over recent Hathras gang-rape. The actor wrote that 'in our society, having a male child is viewed as a privilege'.
Calling this incident a 'myopic vision', Anushka wrote, "Of course, it's no more privilege than having a girl child but the fact is that this so-called privilege has been viewed incorrectly and with an extremely myopic view. The only 'privilege' is that one has the opportunity to raise a boy in a way that he respects a girl. That's your DUTY as a parent to society. So, don't think of it as a PRIVILEGE."
She added, “The gender of the kid doesn’t make you privileged however it’s really the duty you owe to society to boost a boy so nicely that girls really feel protected and guarded.”

On Instagram, she posted, “Barely any time has handed and we’re listening to of one other brutal rape!?! During which world do such monsters suppose they will do that to a younger life.”
