India is much more than rape cases: Iulia

Romanian model-actress Iulia Vantur, who is making her Hindi film debut with Radha Kyun Gori Main Kyun Kaala, says India as a country has a lot to offer and that the rising number of crimes against women in the nation is not what defines it.

Iulia was interacting in Mumbai at the poster launch of the film along with its director Prem R. Soni, producers Prerna Arora, Kashish Khan and Arjun N Kapoor and chief guest Raveena Tandon on Monday. Asked if she ever had reservations about visiting India, Iulia said, “I was fascinated about India and its culture. I was really connected to it, so my love for India and its culture was much bigger than all these cases because India is much more than that. These cases are happening all over the world and, unfortunately, in India they are happening more but that doesn’t define a nation. We don’t have to be scared of that.” — IANS
