Anurag Kashyap recently presented the first look of award-winning documentary 'The World before Her' to raise funds for the movie's nationwide campaign.

On the occasion Kashyap said, "When I saw this, it impacted me immensely and makes you think of what are we doing. We have come to that point where we make the women believe that for her to be someone or empower herself, she either needs to get into the general idea of being beautiful or using violence as a mean.

The film is based on former Miss India Pooja Chopra, who said, "It's a heavily emotional moment for me as it's my story, and more than me my mother's. It's not easy for a woman to raise two daughters on her own and she did that 27 years back.

 

The Documentary is written and directed by Nisha Pahuja and has been screened at more than 125 International film festivals including the Tribeca Film Festival in 2012.

'The world before her' will release on April 25 release.
