Set to release next week, on October 2, Akhiyan Udeekdiyan is a new Punjabi film that, as per the filmmakers’ claim, takes on the issue of female feticide in Punjab. Some info about the film:

Title: Akhiyan Udeekdiyanposter 1

“In the film, a mother decides to give birth to a baby girl, bearing all odd ends and pressure from various quarters to abort the baby. She wins this battle by giving birth to a talented girl child, but sacrifices her own life.”
