“Ek Kori Prem Katha,” a socio-drama film produced by Sughand Films and Kenilworth Films LLP and directed by Chinmay Purohit, seeks to explore a significant societal issue—the practice of Kori, a ceremonial ritual subjecting women to a purity test, which sparks debates about the scrutiny of virginity.
Starring Akshay Oberoi, Raj Babbar, Khanak Budhiraja, and Poonam Dhillon, the film centers around Sabhyata, portrayed by Khanak Budhiraja, who falls in love with the son of the village Pradhan, played by Akshay Oberoi. Sabhyata confronts the Kori ritual and must decide how to resist it to ensure a fulfilling married life. The narrative challenges societal norms, particularly regarding women’s treatment and integrity.
