The controversial and much-talked about film 'Lipctick Under My Burkha' finally got released on the big screen along with Tiger Shroff’s ‘Munna Michael’ and Hollywood film ‘Dunkirk’. The movie directed by Alankrita Shrivastava is a story about four women- Shireen (Konkona Sen Sharma), Usha (Ratna Pathak Shah), Leela (Aahana Kumra) and Rihana (Plabita Borthakur) who are searching for freedom but are restricted by certain societal norms.
The film came into limelight soon after it was announced. The movie was under the radar of Censor Board for women objectification and bold scenes in the film. But it received positive reviews from the critics and Bollywood fraternity.
The movie got released on 21 July and received low opening at the Box Office in the morning shows but showed a good growth in the evening and night shows. Check out how the people reacted on Twitter after watching the film.
There is nothing to be offended about #LipstickUnderMyBurkha I wonder what made us wait for it to release.
