Bollwyood hottie Kangana Ranaut has emphasized on the need to stop disrespect towards women by providing support to a TV series, which shows a common girl's resolution to regain her respect.

Named as "Mann Ki Awaaz-Pratigya", the show was given a head start by the actress, who has closely dealt with a related incident.

Kangana pledged to kill mediocrity and stand for her value and self-esteem.

Pratigya is a manifestation of the culture we live in, where women frequently go through situations and are forced to suffer disrespect.

Mr. Sanjay Gupta, COO, Star India, said, “With 'Pratigya', we aim to bring alive an icon whose journey is one that women can relate to, identify with and be inspired by. Breaking stereotypes, we have created a protagonist who is not a victim but a reformer.”

Co-produced by Walkwater Media Ltd in association with Spell Bound Production, "Pratigya" stars Pooja Gaur in the lead role.
