 “They will always keep dreaming even if society puts them into boxes or restrains them, they can’t kill women’s passion, ambition and dreams. It also talks about the things that women sometimes do in secret because they are not allowed to do them in public. So the title is about hidden dreams, secret fantasies and hidden ambitions.” she added.

The cast of the Alankrita Shrivastava-directorial includes Konkona Sen SharmaRatna Pathak Shahand Sonal Jha, among others.

The movie is about four women who are leading four separate battles for their freedom. The makers had an elaborate battle with the Central Board of Film Certification ( CBFC) for its ‘lady oriented’ content.

Overruling the censor board‘s refusal, Film Certification Appellate Tribunal (FCAT) has issued ‘A’ or ‘Adult’ certificate to feminist drama and it finally releases on July 21.
