Rape? Ladies, it's your fault: A satirical video about victim blaming featuring Kalki Koechlin.
A group of stand-up comedians known as 'AIB' has come up with a satirical video in the wake of recent sexual assault cases in India. The group consists of Tanmay Bhat, Gursimran Khamba, Rohan Joshi and Ashish Shakya.
The video, that features actor Kalki Koechlin and VJ Juhi Pande, has got around 145,128 hits within 48 hours of its release.
The video starts with Kalki Koechlin who says "Ladies, do you think rape is something men do out of a desire for control empowered by years of patriarchy. You have clearly been mislead by the notion that women are people too, because let's face it ladies. Rape, It's your Fault."
The three-minute, 36-second footage showcases absurd reasons given by people for the attacks such as the provocative clothes women wear that triggers sexual assault, marital rape or late night parties, going out with boys.
The women in the video maintain their cheer even as they continue to be bashed and grabbed by hands reaching in from off-camera.
They also mock comments made by politicians, spiritual leaders and media personalities.
