"It is an issue that needs to be addressed. For this entire generation, for the parents and the children, it's a real issue. I think it was very courageous on Abhishek's part to dedicate almost three years of his life on something he felt needed to be spoken about," he said. 

Udta Punjab also features actors Kareena Kapoor Khan, Diljit Dosanjh and Alia Bhatt. The film is set for release on 17 June.
