What if women goes extinct? What will happen to our society?
Matrubhoomi is set in a village somewhere in rural Bihar where there are no females. Boys and men in the village are desperate. Men try to satisfy their urge through watching porn and mujra performed by males wearing sarees. And if the quench still persists then cows at home are not spared. Remember cows are considered to be holy and motherly in Hindu religion.
In such a time a wealthy father finds a bride for his 5 unmarried sons. He pays hefty amount as a dowry to bride's father. At night sons start to bicker about how to take turns. Week has seven days and they are 5. At that time their father starts cribbing that he is the one who paid such a huge sum and they are not thinking of him. Thus, father spends the first night with the bride. The girl becomes nothing but a sex toy in hands of these males. Girl finds solace in the arms of the younger son who is loving and caring towards her.
But soon youngest son is killed by his jealous brothers. Girl makes an attempt to run away but gets caught. She is kept in shackles in cowshed and raped brutally every night not only by the family but the entire village.
The girl eventually becomes pregnant and gives birth to a girl child while men fight for the right over the girl and her newly born daughter.
India have lost millions of daughters to female feoticide. Everyone believes that it is only practised in villages which is far from truth. Cities like Mumbai and Delhi have high rates of selective sex abortion. There are clinics which determine sex of the baby for few thousand rupees. Many such clinics where raided and shut down in Mumbai but still the practice continues.
Few years back there were reports that states like Punjab and Haryana already facing a grim situation and families there buy girls as bride from poor families from different states.
The high growth of crimes against women is nothing but a sign where we are getting towards. It is an indication of days to come in future.
In fact, I don't understand how the women of the house let such things happen in their household. I remember one incident that had happened with one of my friend when she was traveling in a metro in Delhi. She was traveling in ladies compartment and some boys got into it. She confronted them asking to get down, but the ladies in the compartment scolded saying "why are you making an issue? They haven't touched you."
Women in India needs to change. First of all they should be financial independent and stop giving importance to marriage. Woman doesn't need a man to survive.
If your husband asks for sex selective abortion divorce him and report him to the police. If you have a son not only teach him to respect women but also encourage him thrash someone who doesn't respect.
MUST WATCH.
