Regarding the issue of women's rights in India, the first girl Rani herself is a child bride. She got married at the age of 14 and was influenced by her mother to find a child bride for her son. The second girl, Rani, was raped by her husband every day because of her infertility (actually it was her husband's problem). ) Female San Fei Liqi is a dancer (prostitute) who is criticized every day, and they live in a male-dominated world. No matter what Rani does, the first thing that comes to mind is "what people will say", so she has not remarried for 15 years. She worked hard to take care of her mother-in-law and son, and lived a sexless life for 15 years (correspondingly, her husband was drunk after going out to visit prostitutes on the wedding night, and he took care of his lover after returning home); Infertility became a problem for her. She thought her husband was abusive because she couldn't have a child. Fei Liqi was the most likeable person among the three of them. She also went out to play with a piece of buckwheat (in India, women are not allowed to take the bus alone, and there is a woman in the play who was despised by the villagers, including some women, for riding a bicycle with her husband) when Rani hesitated to encourage Rani Don't care how others see it, it may just be that Rani is happy in the eyes of others; telling La Qiao that her infertility is not necessarily her own reason, it may also be her husband's reason (Rani and La Qiao have a different look on this. Unbelievable expression) When La Qiao was raped again, she suggested to La Qiao to "vaccinate", but she herself thought she had met true love, but when the man proposed to her, he said: let her be his queen (Implicitly wanting to be her new pimp).

India has always had a strong and deep-rooted "patriarchal" idea, and even women and children are deeply influenced by it. Her father-in-law and other men in the family would rape her whenever they got the chance) to apply to the elders group to go back to her parents’ house (the elders group is made up of four old men in the village, and they decide everything from village affairs to small household affairs), the elders group No, but it was her mother who finally pushed her back to hell. Her mother thought it was fortunate that the man's family was willing to forgive her daughter, regardless of her daughter's feelings and situation; there is also Rani in the play Because the son is getting married, Xiang mother-in-law sighed about his married life: Mom, do you remember when I got the water out and you stepped on and slipped? I burst out laughing, when I was very young, you beat me to the core, it was your son Shankar who saved me, but who could save me from Shankar? When he started staying at night, you said it was going to be all right; when he took a mistress, you said it was going to be all right; when Shankar died in an accident, you first cursed me, then you said it was going to be all right Yes, but nothing has changed. Years have passed, Gulab has grown up, and I... Once Gulab's bride comes, it's my turn to lie down in the cot, and then everything will be fine Zhan Qi's attitude for comparison, which may also be an insinuation of Rani's married life).

In such cases, you will think that they live very depressed, but the men do whatever they want. Rani's son, Gulab, is only fourteen or five years old, and he still doesn't understand anything because of the influence of the surrounding environment and herd mentality. He thinks that men are everything in this world, and that women's lives cannot be lived without men, and gradually become a severe cancer patient of straight men. He scolded him because he was dissatisfied with his wife's short hair when she was newly married and did not satisfy his vanity in front of his peers. She was bald and treated his wife's first night of marriage with a commanding tone, ignoring each other's feelings. Afterwards, she told Rani that he had done his duty as a husband, and then went to prostitutes and drink, and even planned to sell the newlyweds after paying huge debts. Wife; La Qiao's husband feels that his self-esteem as a man has been hurt because La Qiao has a stable job and salary, and beats La Qiao, who is two months pregnant. In the film, Rani's lesson to Gulab is impressive: his son Gulab got angry with his mother and wife after he was hungry for a day because his mother and his wife went out to play and didn't cook for him, and Rani was righteous at this time. He taught Gulab in words: Open your drunken eyes, Gulab, look at your wife, don't be in a hurry to be a man, learn to be a man first.
