There is no villain in Satyamev Jayate, says Aamir

"Doctors should not be blamed [for] this. Everyone involved [is] equally responsible. I don't understand why there is so much of fascination with the boy child. After all, It is a woman who takes the family ahead," Khan said.

"There is no villain in my show. Who is the villain, it is we all who are doing something wrong. Each problem can be solved through love and that is the reason even my song Satyamev Jayate is a love song."

The episode had mothers from different parts of India, both rural and urban areas, talking about the problems they faced for giving birth to girls.

The actor says he can't solve anything. "I am no one to bring change or solve anything, neither can the government. One person cannot improve this or bring solution. I can only keep the issue in front of everyone. The only solution is each and everyone should say, ‘I will not do that.'"
