To inspire the youth and to be a catalyst for change - that is what MARD stands for. I am grateful to all of the artists that are coming together to say Bas Ab Bahut Ho Gaya & to End Violence Against Women and Girls”.Poonam Muttreja, Executive Director, Population Foundation of India (PFI) adds, "For a very long time, we have been talking about violence against women and making policies and laws to prevent it. Though this was essential, now its high time to execute those as well.” 

Feroz Abbas Khan says, “We have made films based on the lives of Sania Mirza and Vidya Balan which kick-started the campaign. Post which we engaged with more than 600 colleges where we had our workshops on violence against women and girls. We asked the students to give us 2-minute films based on violence faced by women and girls. To which, we received 1700 entries. Our idea is to sensitize the issue on a continuous basis."  

Launched by Population Foundation of India, Farhan Akhtar's MARD and Feroz Abbas Khan on 30th May, Bas Ab Bahut Ho Gaya- Enough is Enough is a campaign that aims at generating debate and promote positive change in cultural and social norms around the value of women in India. National celebrities joined this campaign to relay messages that motivate young girls to stand up against violence, and show boys that masculinity is not connected with violence. Apart from the films, there were several activities including college panel discussions across 40 campuses and a filmmaking contest in which 600 colleges took part with close to 2000 entries.

Maybe marriage is not meant for me: Sneha Wagh

While many celebrities will go to any extent to keep problems in their private lives hidden, actor Sneha Wagh is not one to keep up such pretence. Life has been a roller coaster ride for the actor, who has gone through two failed marriages. While her first marriage failed because of domestic violence, her second marriage with Anurag Solanki is also going through a tough phase. The two are staying separately and are yet to file for divorce. 

"I would say he was not a wrong guy but he was not a right guy either. Maybe I am also a headstrong girl. My first marriage failed due to domestic violence. After my two failed marriages, one thing I have realised is that men don't like headstrong women. I have a very soft nature and am also fragile. A little bit of glitch makes a scar in my heart. I strongly feel marriage is not meant for me. I also feel marriage is overhyped now. In our society we have made certain beliefs that men can only take care of the family but that is not true. I am confident and capable of taking care of my family," says Sneha. 

However, going through a tough phase in marriage can never be easy and Sneha says that she could not have done it without her family. "My sister and my parents are my pillars of strength. Without them I would have not survived this bad time. Right now, career is my focus. My full concentration is on my career. I won't say that love is bitter to me but definitely I am not inclined towards it now. In the future whether it'll happen or not, I can't comment," she says. 

Today a lot of celebrity marriages are breaking up. However, Sneha says that marital problems happen everywhere. "There are divorces in common people as well. But since we are constantly under the spotlight, people get to know about us more."
