Iconic actor Naseeruddin Shah who feels
disturbed about the recent barbaric rape
and murder cases of young girls, says that
more rape cases are reported to police and
media these days, as compared to earlier,
which is "a positive sign.
Asked at the trailer launch of his upcoming
film "Hope Aur Hum on Monday for his
opinion about the rape and murder of an
eight-year-old child in Jammu and Kashmir's

days such cases are reported more.
Naseeruddin Shah Feels More Rape Cases
Being Reported Is A Good Thing
"In fact, there is a very wonderful thing that
read yesterday in a newspaper where a
rape survivor was saying that why should
the victim has to hide her face? It, in fact,
the accused, who committed the crime
should be ashamed, they should hide their
faces. It's a threatful situation... I guessait's
a good thing that media is so alert about all
these things nowadays.
"It surely makes our morning horrifying, as
the moment you open the newspaper, such
news appears. But it is good that such
incidents are talked about.

Naseeruddin admitted that he doesn't
know if this is the solution.
"We are talking about a generational
change of mindset, that cannot happen
overnight. What we can do, is to trend set
the example in our personal lives. We
cannot keep on policing or not every girl
possibly keeps a pistol or learns martial arts.
It has to begin with us, with each one of
us, said the veteran actor.
The trailer launch was attended by the cast
and crew of the film including actress Sonali
