"Begum Jaan" fame actor Pitobash Tripathy, who was present for the special screening of "Phullu", says that the film talks about a very important topic yet doesn't seem preachy at all."I really like the film. It's a funny, interesting and moving film which gives lot of inspiration. 80 per cent of India's population is from villages and still, there are some misconception among the people about menstrual period and women hygiene so I feel, it will give good message to people," Pitobash said. The actor says the special thing about the film is that it talks about an important topic."But not for a moment it looks preachy or like an educational documentary. People will enjoy this film throughout but when they come out of theatre they will take some good amount knowledge about this issue," he said.
