Actor Rhea Chakraborty made headlines last week as she breezed past a mob of media crew, into the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) office for questioning in a drugs case, allegedly linked to the death of Sushant Singh Rajput. While Chakraborty was eventually arrested, it was her black typographical T-shirt that grabbed eyeballs, as it read, 'Roses are red, Violets are blue, Let's smash patriarchy, Me and you'. With a section of the society terming the aggression Chakraborty has been facing a witch hunt, her T-shirt found an echo among netizens. Several celebrities shared the quote, and Chakraborty's casual T-shirt was deemed as a subtle, but loud political statement.
But this is not the first time the humble T-shirt has caught the world's attention. In fact, Chakraborty's choice is part of a line of merchandise that The Souled Store made in collaboration with the NGO GiveHer5 to help make menstrual hygiene accessible to women in rural India.
