Sanjay Kapoor in a short film

Bollywood actor Sanjay Kapoor who recently appeared in the anthology 'Zindagi InShort' says his character in the short film, which addresses marital rape, was a morally tricky one and that in turn intrigued him to be a part of the story.

"Although I played a husband in the short film, this was a very different husband that I played. Morally, it was a very tricky character. Set in a small town, it is the story of a couple and the involvement of a third person between them.

The story addresses the topic of marital rape, and it is quite a prevalent matter in the world. We tend to think that people who are living in small towns are simple, unless you get into a macro-observation level, you never know what is happening inside a family.

Our story in the film is of one such couple that looks perfect from the outside, but inside there is darkness that gets unveiled in the film," Kapoor told IANS.
