Retweeted Deepika Bhardwaj (@DeepikaBhardwaj): A man committed suicide in Odisha. His old mothers complaint against his wife for torture were not entertained by police. I often think why feminists/ womens rights crusaders don't fight for mothers in law who are victim of abuse?

Anime [amv]- Toca Toca | Official Music Video (full version) Anime [amv] - Toca Toca | Official Music Video (full version) Hi, friends! I'm Kurbeli! I create funny videos with different sound variations. My channel differs from similar ones in that I create videos with a special approach: first, i using the Adobe After Effects, I cut out characters for further editing, and then add unique sound and video effects. Also, I use free images from google on the background in my locations in the video. All my video features materials protected by the Fair Use guidelines of Section 107 of Copyright Act. It takes about 4 hours to create these videos so that my viewers can feel the difference between the original video and the video I created. The audio and video sources in this video were created in such a way that the viewer hears and sees the new UNIQUE content. Thank you for watching!
