Then she realises that she's living in an illusion. Her husband is having an affair. She confronts him. He admits, but assures that it won't happen again.
But it does. He resorts to physical abuse. A lot of women face it today. Our culture makes us sweep a lot of things under the carpet. Soumya just keeps taking it, but soon, like a lion who has been cornered she reacts and says ab bas!
My character's reaction is the turning point of the film. It's the journey of a woman who is very sensitive and strong. How she handles this situation is what the film is all about.
Ab… Bas is a thriller. It sends a message to women that they are worth more. As Indian women, we have lesser self-esteem then we deserve. This film says that we don't have to take s***!
Soumya takes a lot of it, till she has her back to the wall. As you've seen in the promos, I'm a part of some action sequences.
