Kriti also shared another message that questioned the expectation that women should constantly be taught how to protect themselves from harassment and violence.
She spoke about the emphasis on teaching boys and men about consent, respect and accountability.
The actress also liked a post that questioned the difference in public reaction to crimes against women.
The post read, “The fact that rape, domestic violence, and dowry deaths do not invoke much outrage in this country as an actress showing cleavage in a festive ad says a lot about our priorities.”
What's the Jamui case?
The incident happened in Jamui, Bihar, on September 19. As per reports, a teenage girl and her male classmate were allegedly stopped and assaulted by a group while they were returning from coaching classes.
Videos of the incident were circulated on social media. Police registered a case under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and formed a Special Investigation Team.
Three people were initially arrested, and an investigation is underway.
Authorities have also taken action over the circulation of footage involving the minors.
Last month, Kriti faced criticism over a jewellery advertisement released around Raksha Bandhan. The campaign featured her in a bralette-style blouse, cape and draped skirt as she celebrated the festival. Some social media users questioned the styling for a traditional festival campaign.
