- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,September 23 2014]
After presenting the National Award-winning film, the docu-drama 'Gulabi Gang' about women empowerment in Rural India, Sohum Shah is taking the film one step forward by introducing the Gulabi Gang Art Project. The Art Project is a nationwide public art initiative by his production company Recyclewala Films in collaboration with The Fearless Collective and Zubaan.
It is an open entry for all who are inspired by the film. People can send in posters, paintings, illustrations, or even poetry to lend their support to women's empowerment and their art could be selected to featured on the soon-to-be-released DVD cover of the 'Gulabi Gang'. The collaboration has come together to elevate the condition of women in India. The Art Project has received tremendous response from all quarters.
"We're receiving so many beautiful poems and artworks. We're putting it all together now! We are really keen to start a conversation about women rights in India. What better way than through art and culture?", remarked Sohum.
