On the occasion of Women’s Day, the musical short film ‘#Iamsorry’ throws light on the important issue of women’s suicide. Starring Ritika Singh, who was last seen in ‘Saala Khadoos’, the film is helmed by National Award-winning director Ashwini Chaudhary (he won it for ‘Laado’) and produced by Inbox Pictures. The story is dedicated to all those women who deal with the constant fear of being molested, raped or even just stalked in their everyday lives.
Speaking about the film, producer Sajid Qureshi says, “Today, when everyone is talking about women empowerment, our film showcases the troubles, difficulties and dilemmas that women face in their day-to-day lives. Unfortunately, there are very few government helpline numbers that help women who want to end their lives. With this musical short, I urge the Government of India to take up women’s safety issues seriously and provide more suicide-prevention services.”
‘#Iamsorry’, which releases on March 8, is the first venture by Inbox Pictures. Their other films slated to release this year include Me Too, FryDay, Nanu Ki Jaanu and Wah Beta Benares.
