Actress Kalki Koechlin says her poem titled "Printing Machine", which she wrote for the Culture Machine`s "UnBlushed" series, talks about the "violence and brutality" that women face in India.

The poem has been recited by Kalki in a five-minute video which released on the women`s lifestyle channel Blush on Tuesday.

Directed by Akanksha Seda, the video features Kalki in one of her edgiest avatars as she takes on the media, society and their approach towards women and crimes against them.

"`Printing Machine` was inspired by one of the key influencers in our lives -- news houses and the media. We are flooded by an onslaught of objectifying and horrific news reports and imagery that have desensitised us," Kalki said in a statement.

"Culture Machine and the `UnBlushed` team did an amazing job of creating a visual rendition of `Printing Machine` that best expresses the violence and brutality of our culture. They have helped take the story forward with this video that would have otherwise just been on paper," she added.

In the video, Kalki talks about the increase in acid attacks, gang rapes, and foreigners being raped in the country.

Actresses Nimrat Kaur and Sayani Gupta have also appeared in the previous episodes of "UnBlushed", a series that features female celebrities who are unapologetic, bold and beautiful.
