Changing attitudes on child marriage in Maharashtra, India
Around half the girls in India get married before the age of 18. The state of Maharashtra has one of the highest numbers of such marriages.
In this video, Rohini Pawar, a community correspondent for IndiaUnheard, interviews two girls who recently saw their friend getting married. Both are thankful that it was not them.
Rohini herself was married at the age of 15. "I wanted to be a doctor, and all my hopes came crashing down," she says.
