It’s been a while now since the ‘Bois Locker Room’ case came into light. The controversy gained momentum on the internet when leaked screenshots of a private Instagram chat group comprising some teenage school students from the national capital stirred up a storm over rape culture in India.

The chatroom is allegedly run by a group of young boys from South Delhi who shared images of women, many of them minors, without their permission. These photos are further subjected to lewd comments, slut-shaming and body shaming. Private chats accessed by certain users also showed members joking about violence against women and ways to rape minors.

Soon after, Bollywood celebs including Richa Chadha, Swara Bhasker, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, Siddhant Chaturvedi, and others took to their respective social media handles to express a sense of anger and anguish over the issue.
