Actor, social worker and an ex rugby player, Rahul Bose is an ardent believer of movies with substance rather than films filled in with ?running around the tree' songs. In a recent interview, Rahul expressed his views about the uselessness of item songs and the ill effect it produces in the psyche of people in the society. Rahul said that including an item song in between a picture with scantily dressed actresses is a sign of the director's failure and it means that there is no other way left for him to draw in crowds. Also, it disregards a woman's integrity and showcases her as an object of satisfying ones sensual and materialistic needs.

In order to bring back the original power balance in the society between the male and the female, Rahul believes that it is high time now that women should be projected in respectful roles. On his soldiers for women campaign, Rahul explained that women should be allowed to fly free without any inhibitions and value oriented males should be by their side to motivate them and be the pillars of their strength. Rahul Bose is definitely a free spirited and liberal thinking man in this era of male dominated society where everybody acts in an egocentric manner.
