The show is an official adaptation of the acclaimed international Turkish series ‘Fatmagul’, which has been remade with an Indian cultural backdrop. The show portrays Amla as a girl of substance and a survivor who has the conviction to fight for justice, conquering the demons in people’s minds, and reinforcing through her story that the shame should rightfully be placed with the perpetrator and not the survivor of sexual assault.

Society has failed these survivors by stripping them off their dignity through incessant interrogation about the horrific incident by authority figures and merciless character assassination, shaming her instead of the perpetrators. In a Public Service Awareness Initiative by Star Plus, Bachchan questions these culprits of character assassination with one pertinent question: Whose fault is it? The campaign advocates the thought that society needs to place the guilt rightfully on the perpetrators by putting them on trial instead of shaming the survivors.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video title=” Amitabh Bachchan speaks up, asks a pertinent question: Whose fault is it?” link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yj-io2u6nKM”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
