Kalki Koechlin has been an actress who has been working towards the empowerment of women for a very long time. At the India Today conclave she gave an emotive monologue on being a woman in India today. The latest Kalki Koechlin poem in the form of a video called The Printing Machine she has called out both the society and media for slowly and steadily becoming numb to the growing number of atrocities against women and children. Written by her she has highlighted that we read the newspaper every morning and then we forget about it. Until the next morning’s version of the same atrocities. She has at the same time called out glossy magazines for creating impossible standards which are driven entirely be the commodities market. She is highlighting the vulgar need of the masses to read juicy headlines and do nothing about it. She is trying to shake awake a nation of slumbering righteousness.
