Kalki Koechlin, who was married to filmmaker Anurag Kashyap from 2011 to 2015, has said when she got married, people would call her "Anurag's wife", while adding, "They wouldn't say, 'call Kalki' or 'call Kalki's husband'." Kalki further said, "In marriage, a woman becomes the weaker sex, even if her husband doesn't want her to be."
