Actors like Priyanshu Jora, Aasif Sheikh and Ankit Gera feel women should have financial independence as it is the first step towards equality. "The idea that a husband is expected to buy anything for his wife needs to end, because that's exactly where all the problem starts. We hide the male ego and superiority under the carpet called love! Financial dependence makes women continue in unstable marriages," said Priyanshu in a statement to IANS.
