Barkha sengupta, Indian television actress

Mumbai, July 23 Actor Iqbal Khan says people tend to forget humanity when it comes to those living in red light areas, because of societal stigma attached to such places.He realised this while working on the web series "Ratri Ke Yatri", which narrates five dramatic and thought-provoking stories set in red light areas. The show features characters that are seeking something in their lives from love and physical pleasure to refuge and closure when they visit a red light area."Each episode features a character who ends up in the red light area for a different reason. While shooting for the series, I realised that given the stigma surrounding this subject, we sometimes forget that people in red light areas are fellow human beings," said Iqbal, who plays the role of a conman who makes a living by robbing people."As a society, we're trained to look down upon them but at the end of the day, they are just as human as anybody else. This journey personally taught me that a little kindness goes a long way and eventually, the show tells the viewers not to be quick to judge others," he added.Directed by Anil V. Kumar, the MX Player series also features Sudhir Pande, Anju Mahendru, Barkha Sengupta, Parag Tyagi, Avinash Mukherjee, Shiny Doshi, Renee Dhyani, Mansi Srivastava, Reyhna Pandit and Akashdeep Arora.( With inputs from IANS )
