Gone are the days when sex related matters were limited to the bedroom. Nowadays, all such taboo topics are discussed openly and cinema is one of the major contributors in raising awareness on the same. Recently, Akshay Kumar’s film ‘OMG 2’ talked about the important of sex education in schools. And now, Ekta Kapoor’s upcoming chic-flick will deal with the problems of sex, orgasm, pregnancy and more. During the trailer launch event of the film, Ekta shared her views on marriage.

Ekta gets irritated on question of marriage

The producer said that she was often asked when she is getting settled. She used to be very irritated on hearing this. Ekta shared that she does not understand how she will be able to explain it to people that she is completely settled. She asserted that she do not want to settle anymore.

Furthermore, the director elaborated that it is quite surprising how people have ingrained in their minds that any woman settles down after marriage only. She questioned, “Can’t a woman live her life without marriage or is it necessary to get married in order to settle down in life?”

Bringing up Salman Khan in her discussion, Ekta said that the question of getting married and settling down is not only put forth to women but also to men. She quoted, “Salman Bhai is also often asked the same question as to when he is getting married and settling down. It sounds strange to hear this. I am very surprised at this thought process of people.”
