‘I’d like to see this issue being talked about in the media’: Kareena Kapoor Khan on menstrual stereotypes

Kareena Kapoor Khan, who celebrates her 41^st birthday today, had touched upon the topic on menstruation in this powerful video.

While it continues to be a taboo topic in the country, the actor had attempted to dissolve the archaic stereotype. In her powerful speech, the actor pioneered a group of adolescent girls from rural areas and congratulated them for championing menstrual hygiene in Uttar Pradesh.

A UNICEF’s Goodwill Advocate, Kapoor commended the girls who are members of UNICEF-spearheaded project ‘Garima’ that addresses menstrual health concerns in UP.

“I’d like to see this issue being talked about in the media, on websites, not behind closed doors,” she said at the event that was held in Lucknow in 2016.
