'Khandaani Shafakhana': Sonakshi Sinha's next to talk about sex and gender equality

Actress Sonakshi Sinha, who is gearing up for the release of ‘Khandaani Shafakhana’, says she decided to do this film because it's a relevant subject and did not want anyone to shy away from talking about sex while also talking about gender equality.
Directed by Shilpi Dasgupta, the film depicts the journey of a young girl who inherits her deceased uncle's sex clinic in Punjab.
"I decided to do this film because it's a very relevant and important subject that should be discussed. I don't want anyone, woman or man, to shy away from talking about this topic. I hope my doing this film, will give them the courage to talk about sexual issues openly. I am sure this movie will get people thinking... and talking. 'Baat toh karo'," Sonakshi said in a statement.
The actress also went on to state that the film will also touch upon gender equality. She stated that when a man is a gynaecologist, no one questions his decisions, but a woman in this scenario has her own brother looking down on her for running a sex clinic.
The film that also stars Varun Sharma and rapper Badshah in key roles is set to release on August 2.
