Ask the Sexpert is a feature length documentary about Dr. Mahinder Watsa, a highly popular 93-year-old sex advice columnist for a daily newspaper in Mumbai.

The columnist gains popularity even while a ban on comprehensive sex education in schools is adopted by approximately a third of India’s states.
