Bhumi Pednekar believes her upcoming film "Saand Ki Aankh" highlights inequality towards women that exists even today in society. film metaphorically points out inequalities that women have faced across generations through life story of two of world's oldest sharpshooters of India, Chandro and Prakashi Tomar played by Bhumi and Taapsee Pannu respectively. "'Saand ki Aankh' is film about equality of women at its core. Women have faced inequality in our country ever since we can remember. It's taken a bunch of bold and courous women to break those old moulds of discrimination, to bring about an evolution of equality in our country.

Unkwingly y were a part of a system that didn't give m any opportunities cause society just didn't kw better, but y didn't want same for ir daughters and grand daughters," Bhumi said in a statement. actor said she is inspired by both Chandro and Prakashi's journey. In ir 60's y broke all shackles of patriarchy through a very inspiring and truly overwhelming journey. Laughing, smiling with never a dull moment y paved path for a flourished future t just for ir girls but for over 50,000 children.
"y are full of love, warmth, hope and all things positive. y are such fun and full of life. ir story is one to be remembered. It's a roller coaster ride full of tears and laughs," she added. Bhumi said film is a family entertainer that has something for everyone. re are so many moments in film where you just want to go hug your mom for all she has done and moments where you'll be so inspired by m that task would look tough.
