Ranveer Singh, who has earlier endorsed a condom brand, says sex as a topic is not considered taboo by the youth anymore even though it is considered "dirty" and "a stigma" by the larger population in the country.
"Sex in our country is a subject of stigma. For the longest time, sex in India has always been spoken and thought of as a dirty thing, a sleazy subject and always kept in the closet," said the actor at the screening of Sex Chat with Pappu And Papa, an online series based on sex education.
Ranveer had made news when he endorsed a condom brand a few years ago and had also featured in some steamy ads. "It was my own small way of shedding light on the changing perception about sex. Youngsters don't look upon it as a taboo subject anymore, they don't think about it as a dirty thing. I wanted to try and bring sex out of the closet and make people understand that it is a beautiful thing... An expression of love. What's most important is for the Indian youth to understand as much as they can about safe sex and sex education. There are still so many institutions that don't have it mandatory, which I think should be made mandatory," the Bajirao Mastani actor added.
