The Vagina Monologues is a play written by Eve Ensler which is made up of different monologues read by different women which were subsequently performed by two to three women. These monologues somehow or the other relate to Vagina. To cite an example one monologue reads as “I was twelve, my mother slapped me” meaning girl’s first menstrual period. Similarly there are many such monologues written by the author mostly highlighting the issues affecting the women around the world. This play takes place annually in February and March to raise funds for local groups and the Crisis centres working to end the violence against women.
Well! The words were so intriguing that only women felt it possible to read for the play. But, as a renewed effort, they have roped in a male for the first time.
Thus Imran khan will be doing this charitable act as a first man in the world of this play which has been making headlines in all the countries particularly due to severe critism from the feminist activists. Many see this play as having negative and restrictive view of sexuality and as anti-male bias.
Inran Khan was approached by his friend Sonali Sachidev. The victim of acid attack, Haseena was the main reason that convinced Imran Khan to accept the role of reading the monologues in the all female play. Earlier Mallika Sherawat did this charitable job once.
