View's on Woman
"A woman does not have to be in the kitchen only and
cook and have kids. A woman can be a professional
sportsperson and playing tennis or playing cricket or playing
any other sports; it doesn't have to be recreational for women
and that's the attitude we need to change as a nation. "
"I think as a women, we need to learn to stand up to
fight and only then others will respect us. We need to not
suppress women when they come out to speak. When women
in this part of the world speak up for themselves, they are
slates to be rebels, they are slated to be people who don't
value relationships and family "
