Theres a child within me. Everything is fascinating. The hunger to learn, do better and more creative things never goes.

I had never dreamt Id become an actress. It was destiny that put me in the right place at the right time and gave me the right opportunities.

I've been a staunch advocate of women's empowerment, and I've worked hard throughout my career to advance the cause. It is heartening to see that gender equality is really becoming more of a reality. There is still much more to be done, and I'm confident that, by working together, we can empower women worldwide.
