"Lakeerein" depicts Kavya's (Tia Bajpai) struggle as she seeks justice against her husband, Vivek Damodar Agnihotri (Gaurav Chopra), for the horrible act of marital rape.

Kavya's battle for justice becomes the film's major theme, shedding emphasis on the legal and societal hurdles that victims of marital rape endure.

With a tale set in popular Uttar Pradesh locales, 'Lakeerein' displays the scars of marital rape not only on her life but also on the lives of her maid Naseema and her friend Anita, both of whom have experienced similar crimes in their marriages.

In the courtroom, Bidita Bag's character, Advocate Geeta Bishwas, faces off against Ashutosh Rana's character, Advocate Dudhari Singh. Geeta's fight against injustice calls into question society's moral ideals and its proclivity to recognise marital rape.

Apart from Ashutosh and Bidita, it stars Tia Bajpai, Gaurav Chopra and Aman Verma, Rajesh Jais, Saharsh Shukla, Mukesh Bhatt, Anil Rastogi, Ali Mohammad in pivotal roles.

Director Durgesh Pathak shared, "'Lakeerein' is more than just a film, it is a call for change. It challenges societal norms, questions the morality of our legal system, and advocates for the recognition of marital rape as a crime. The film prompts us to reflect on the importance of consent and the need to provide protection and justice to married women who face such heinous acts within their marriages."

Durgesh Pathak's directed 'Lakeerein' is produced under the banner of Image & Creation, BTC Multimedia Productions, and Black Pearl Movies, and distributed by Reliance Entertainment. The film is scheduled for release on November 3rd, 2023. (ANI)
