This National Girl Child day, she pledged to take a step forward and said, "I wish on this National Girl child day we stand for each other and for oneself and we make it a collaborative effort. In a patriarchal society like ours, providing education and the right mindfulness for young girls from the beginning has become imperative. So on this day, I wish to activate more initiatives for these girls so that they become independent and can fight for themselves. We are in conversation with few experts and NGO's and I hope it works out soon."

The lady who brought characters like Minal Arora, Shabana Khan and Ananya is firm on not just building on-screen characters but also developing sources for young girls to become powerful, such as her characters. Now, this is what we call an auspicious occasion.

More Power to her and her causes!
