The Vagina Monologues is the theatre show based on stories of women belonging to the distinctive group of people, called survivors. It is to know that the show has completed a long 10 years and it is an achievement in itself.
Jayati Bhatia aka Mataji of Sasural Simar Ka, who is also a part of the show, shared, "It is a very proud moment for our entire team who is associated with the show. It is a milestone that we have achieved and I guess there is yet a very long way to go too. In the very start it was a controversial subject but then with the time it was accepted and appreciated by the people."
She added, "It has been a remarkable journey so far. In 2003, when we started the show, it was rejected in various parts of our country namely Ahemdabad, Chennai and Lucknow, where we were not allowed to perform at all as people thought that the name of the show itself is bad and that it should be banned. But as I said before, today it is accepted and people celebrate their anniversary, birthdays, occasion by coming and watching our show which makes me feel very proud."
"We can see the way our country has developed in these 10 years. Just where the name itself was a ban of the show we are now going all houseful. Now we are also going to Jaipur to perform, as they have been inviting us from quite some time to come there and conduct a show. It is overwhelming to get such a response from the people. The best part is that through our theatre show we have contributed around 1.5 a crores to an NGO. It is proud moment when we are able to help the needy, said Jayati!
Congrats over the big feat!
