Actor Pankaj Tripathi says he is unable to understand why women prefer to keep quiet instead of opening up whenever they experience some sort of trauma, especially in personal life.

"It's unknown to me why women keep quiet when they go through trauma in personal life. They are tight-lipped when asked to share their problems. I don't really know how to decode this, but somehow this (problem) still exists in our society. Even if we stay in liberal urban cities, there still are few sections of society where women are not vocal about their problems," the actor said.
