‘Hautesteppers’ 3.0 Ep 9: Swara Bhasker Wants You To Take Control Of Your Pleasure! Yes Ma’am!
Swara Bhasker is one of controversy’s favourite children. Only because she dares to speak her mind and take a stand on the things that matter. Her social media is considered to be her weapon of choice and we love that. Add to that, she is extremely talented and quite the stunner. An actress who can pull off the roles that she managed to in movies like Veere Di Wedding, Rasbhari, Flesh, Nil Battey Sannata, and shows like Bhaag Beanie Bhaag, deserves to be appreciated and commended for their skills and talent. It’s clear that she has literally earned where she stands and that is a true achievement.

Now, talking about her acting skills, her role in Veere Di Wedding takes the crown. We literally must speak about the most controversial vibrator scene because well, that literally shook the industry and beyond. While talking about it, Swara Bhasker laughed and exclaimed,
“I knew it was shocking and I knew it would be controversial, which it was. I asked for this role because when I read that scene, I was like ‘Oh My God, can I pull this off?’. So, this was like a challenge for me.”
She further added, “Honestly, I didn’t think that it would turn into the thing that would define my life forever and ever. This is precisely why I’ve written ‘Dil ki buri nahi hai, par pata nahi kaunsi ulti buddhi di hai bhagwaan ney. . . aur ziddi toh bhaiya khachchar jaisi’ on my Twitter bio because that’s what people keep trolling me about. Like, it’s not my description, it’s literally the world’s description of me!”

This masturbation scene in Veere Di Wedding seemed to have pinched a lot of nerves and a lot of people on social media have heavily trolled Swara for being a part of it. Many users have objected to the self-stimulating scene and questioned the actress about the purpose of the scene showing a girl satisfying herself in a film related to women’s empowerment to which she did respond over Twitter too.
Swadeept! 1. Sakshi was in her PRIVATE bedroom.. not public
2. Masturbation is abt owning ur body, sexuality. Empowering.
3. In a culture that largely silences or ignores or shames female sexuality showing a girl gratifying herself in a film in a non judgemental way is empowering https://t.co/PQXwaLsAku— Swara Bhasker (@ReallySwara) June 6, 2018
Swara Bhasker has time and again spoken about the importance of self-pleasure for women. She strongly believes that pleasure is important. During the video, she expressed, “I think it’s important for women to be able to be free with their bodies, to know their bodies and of course, to experience pleasure. Let’s start there. How they do it should be up to each person.”

How we derive pleasure is very different for every person, some choose to quiet down and understand their bodies while others prefer to discuss their desires with their significant others. Whereas some amazing women take control in their own hands with vibrators, dildos and other sex toys.
Swara Bhasker believes that we all deserve pleasure because it is the most basic need, in the world. During the interview, she said, “So if there are people who can express their desires and needs and experience pleasure in some other way, go ahead! But, if there are people who want to take control of that by pleasuring themselves then they should have the right to do it. Honestly like, it’s the most normal and natural thing in the world. Why do we have to make such a big deal about it?”

Honestly, she really does make sense, doesn’t she? We all deserve pleasure. Masturbation is the most natural need and it’s actually really good for our health, both mentally and physically. Furthermore, self-pleasure can be a very healthy stress release, it triggers the release of dopamine in your body and it’s pretty much the safest form of sex out there, isn’t it? Then, why do we have to attach so much stigma and shame to something that is so basic, natural and essential? Isn’t it about time that we make way for women who want to take control of their own pleasure?
