There has been widespread outrage from Bollywood over the Hathras and Balrampur rape cases, and rightly so. Actors have spoken out demanding justice for the victims. Now, in an upfront, honest post on Instagram, Anushka Sharma has spoken about the so-called 'privilege of having a male child' and how it's has been viewed with a myopic vision.

Anushka Sharma wrote, "In our society having a male child is seen as a 'privilege'. Of course, it's no more privilege than having a girl child but the fact is that this so-called privilege has been viewed incorrectly and with an extremely myopic view. The only 'privilege' is that one has the opportunity to raise a boy in a way that he respects a girl. That's your DUTY as a parent to society. So, don't think of it as a PRIVILEGE."
