Shehnaaz Gill the talented actor was recently in the frame of mind to empower women at the event for Brahma Kumari. Shehnaaz was invited to launch the Empowerment of Girl Child campaign by the women-led spiritual organisation. In that program, Shehnaaz talked about the importance of raising children well, both boys and girls. She also talked about how both boys and girls could be the reason for the happiness of parents. She stressed the fact that girls should not be called the weaker or softer sex.
A report on hindustantimes.com talked about it and we take reference from that story for our write up here.
In a video from the event shared by a paparazzo account, Shehnaaz is seen talking about the need for equal treatment for boys and girls. She said, “Tumhari zindagi mein tumne accha sikhaya hoga na to tumhe sukh beta bhi de sakta hai aur beti bhi de sakti hai. Ladkiyon ko soft, delicate, innocent bolna band karo. Hum bechariyan bilkul bhi nahi hain (If you have taught them well then a boy or a girl both can give you happiness. Stop calling girls soft, delicate, innocent. We are not helpless at all).”
In another video from the event, Shehnaaz called herself pure. Asked how does she have such high thinking at a young age, she said, “Meri soch isliye acchi hai kyunki mai pure hu…Mai na bahot hi acchi hu. Mai pata hai kyu bolti hu apne aap ko acchi? Kyunki main sach mein acchi hu, bas (My thoughts are good because I am pure…I am a very good person, and you know why I call myself good, because I am good in reality, that’s it).”
