Many also objectified and trolled her with ill intent. Ruhani now shared a note on Instagram claiming that she had been ‘holding back’ but chose to address it now as it’s been ‘weighing heavy’ on her. She wrote, “It’s heartbreaking to see our months of hard work, dedication, and passion being disregarded in this way.
Creating an art film is an intense journey filled with countless challenges, sleepless nights and unwavering commitment.” Ruhani added, “What’s even disheartening is how quick some are to judge without understanding the blood, sweat, and tears that go into bringing such a project to life.” She went on to call Agra a ‘labour of love’ writing how the film premiered at Cannes and has been acclaimed internationally.
“I stand by my choices, and I’m incredibly proud of this film, and the entire team that made it happen. For those who may not fully grasp or appreciate this.
