For too long, women have been regarded as less than human, and therefore, not entitled to these human rights. Breakthrough works to transform attitudes towards women so that they can realize their full potential. One key example is the Breakthrough Mann Ke Manjeere music video that has become a cult classic that speaks to woman’s celebration of self-discovery and the ability to make choices in life.

Quote from post:

When a man (played by Boman Irani) hears a neighbor beating his wife, he suddenly wants to make a call -- at his neighbor's house. Breakthrough's latest multimedia campaign "Bell Bajao" (Ring the Bell), urges men to take a stand against domestic violence.
