'Gulab Gang', directed by Soumik Sen, is a story of a gang of women fighting against social injustice and will release on March 7.
While 'Gulabi Gang' is a 96 minute feature-length documentary following the story of Sampat Pal and the feisty women of her organisation with the same name as they combat gender violence, caste oppression and widespread corruption in the badlands of Bundelkand in central India.
"We did not face a problem working with Gulabi Gang. We had their full support, they want media... People to come and see their work. But there is lot of resistance against Gulabi Gang as they are fighting against corrupt officials, making cases against men who are killing or beating women," Nishtha said.
The documentary is being presented by actor-producer Sohum Shah, who was seen in 'Ship of Theseus'.

"The film has a great story, and is highly entertaining. I have always believed that cinema is a great medium for education. A film like this can help spread awareness on the current state of gender inequality in India," Sohum said.
"Just as so many people came forward to support us when we released 'Ship of Theseus', I feel like it is my turn to lend my support to a film that I feel needs to be seen," he said.
