An advocate in Kollam, Kerala, has now filed a legal case against the Gruhalakshmi Magazine for featuring a woman breastfeeding her child. The cases are filed against only the magazine and not against Gilu Joseph however, the actor is also being criticised for going bold.
Gilu Joseph says that she had to fight a lot of criticism to do this which started from home – her mother and sister.
“I am extremely proud of my body and only I exercise rights over it. I only do things that I think is right for me, which is why I had no qualms in taking up this project,” Gilu Joseph told the magazine.
The campaign has now become viral on social media and many celebrities are supporting the cause.
With bold thoughts, Gilu Joseph has made it clear that there is nothing wrong with feeding your baby in public, which is often viewed sexually, she says. “It is a problem to interpret this sexually.
Isn’t it a beautiful thing, friends? Why do you think it is wrong? Which god will be angry if you feed your child,” Gilu was quoted as saying.
Gilu Joseph is an air-hostess by profession and has films like Nonsense, Abrahaminte Santhathigal and Parole up for release this year.
