The film, created by Prime Focus Technologies production house, focuses features a woman in the boxing ring displaying a boldness and fearlessnesses to handle anything.
Nice twist on the “Run, Hide, Scream”, eh?

“Women are rarely encouraged to take on physical challenges,” said Bhaskar Sitholey, Vice President, Creative Services, Prime Focus Technologies (PFT). “The film seeks to shatter conventional stereotypes and send out the message that women can achieve anything if they put their mind to it.
