One day while still working on the shoot Kapoor saw Julie heading towards her mother, barely able to walk. It was at that moment that Kapoor decided she would help Julie and other at-risk girls who live in Delhi’s slums who are often victims of sexual violence and domestic abuse, are forced to work in brothels, or are victims of drug abuse. Kapoor started Protsahan, a small NGO school that educates at-risk girls through the arts. Many of the girls who come from situations of abuse don’t talk for months when they enter her school, but the arts help them trust again and open up.
