“I wanted to show that when they go outside for work, society puts a moral surveillance on something that equips her to cross the boundary of home. Physically, Barkha has come out, but there is still something inside that is pulling her back, creating a feeling as if she has done something wrong.”

"Paromita Vohra’s new film urges us to expand our collective imagination of what it means to work and who gets to be called a worker. Her journey from ‘Unlimited Girls’ to ‘Working Girls’ is a political one with unflinching gazes, collective spirit, spontaneous laughter and moments of solitude"
