All We Imagine As Light is directed by Payal Kapadia and features Kani Kusruti and Divya Prabha in the lead roles. The film had won a Grand Prix award at this year's Cannes Film Festival. It is also the first Indian film to achieve this feat.

"All We Imagine as Light", which was screened at several film festivals and won accolades, hit theatres last week. However, now an incident is taking place on social media that brings shame to the entire society. The buzz on social media is about the semi-nude scene of Divya Prabha's character in the film.

Divya Prabha's topless scene was widely circulated on social media on the second day of the film's release. Obscene comments were circulated on many Facebook groups along with Divya Prabha's photo. This has been followed by widespread criticism. It was big news when the film won the award, but questions are being raised as to how many people appreciated the film at that time.

Many are of the opinion that it is a shameful thing that some people are discussing the film, which has brought laurels to Indian cinema internationally, at the level of B-grade cinema. The pirated version of the semi-nude scene in the film is being circulated without even looking at the theme of the film.

The film tells the story of two Malayali nurses in the city of Mumbai. The film also stars Azees Nedumangad, Chhaya Kadam and Hridu Haroon. Thomas Hakim, Julien Graff (Petit Chaos), Zico Maitra (Chalk & Cheese Films) and Ranabir Das have travelled with Payal Kapadia over the last five years to produce the film.

Divya Prabha says she didn't expect the film to win an award at Cannes but added that she did expect these controversies. Divya Prabha clarified that the film and the story are bigger for her and she did not feel any problem in acting in these scenes. The actress said that she has got many concessions that many actors who have done nude scenes do not get. "It's a movie and it has characters in it. If such scenes are mandatory for the smooth journey of a story, it must be accommodated. I don't think that's a mistake. Some audiences misinterpreted the nude scenes in the film."

"I have never done scenes like this in any film so far. So there must be some reason why I decided to act as in the script right? This won't be a problem at all in Hollywood. What some people hold up here is the nudity in the film. Those who think of this negatively should understand one thing. It is after 30 years that an Indian film has won an award at the Cannes Film Festival. Would the film have been discussed globally if the concept of the film wasn't great? No one is trying to imbibe the idea of the film. What everyone sees as a big issue is the kind of scenes that this character has done."
