Ethereally
gorgeous
Manushi
Chhillar,
who
will
be
making
her
big-screen
debut
soon
opposite
superstar
Akshay
Kumar
in
the
much-awaited
Prithviraj,
is
launching
a
big-ticket
social
media
property
named
Limitless
that
will
see
her
speak
to
the
country’s
most
inspiring
women
icons.
A
young
achiever
herself,
Manushi
wants
to
bring
out
the
backstories
of
these
influential
women
and
also
find
out
what
motivates
them
to
constantly
shatter
gender
stereotypes.
Manushi
says,
“Growing
up
and
even
now,
I’ve
been
in
awe
of
so
many
women
icons
who
are
working
incessantly
to
break
the
glass
ceiling.
They
inspire
fellow
women
across
the
world
to
dream
big.
I
always
harboured
the
thought
of
creating
a
digital
property
that
enables
me
to
talk
to
these
icons
and
help
me
get
to
know
more
about
their
lives,
how
their
mind
works
and
what
inspires
them.”
She
adds,
“And
what
better
day
than
National
Girl
Child
Day
to
launch
this
project,
which
is
really
close
to
my
heart,
with
the
hugely
decorated
athlete
and
an
icon
in
every
sense
of
the
word,
Geeta
Phogat.
We
hail
from
the
same
state
and
her
contribution
towards
making
women
aware
that
they
are
capable
of
wonderful
things.
She
changed
the
discourse
of
women
rights
in
our
state
and
country.”
Manushi
further
states,
“It
is
my
absolute
honour
to
start
this
special
project
titled
'Limitless’
with
Geeta
and
I
hope
that
everyone
will
like
what
our
conversation
has
touched
upon.
I
have
always
wanted
to
create
a
platform
that
brings
women
icons
from
across
our
country
together.”
About
why
she
named
this
digital
IP
Limitless,
Manushi
reveals,
“Limitless
pretty
much
sums
up
what
this
project
is
about
-
it
will
celebrate
the
unbound
potential
of
being
a
woman.
Through
the
voices
of
these
icons,
we
aim
to
trigger
a
necessary
conversation
about
bettering
society
and
foster
a
spirit
of
equality.
I’m
going
to
work
hard
in
building
this
in
the
months
to
come.”
She
adds,
“Every
girl
child
has
limitless
potential
to
shine
bright
-
all
they
need
is
correct
support
system
and
the
correct
environment
that
empowers
them
constantly
to
realise
their
true
potential.
Through
this
conversation
series,
we
will
hope
to
talk
to
some
of
the
most
remarkable
girls
who,
through
sheer
willpower
and
harnessing
of
talent,
are
icons
of
modern-day
India.
They
are
a
source
of
inspiration
to
girls
across
the
country.”
Manushi
has
also
been
roped
in
by
UNICEF
to
raise
her
voice
on
gender
equality
this
National
Girl
Child
Day.
Manushi,
who
has
constantly
spoken
about
equal
rights
for
girls,
says,
“It
is
a
great
contradiction,
that
in
our
country,
women
lead
at
the
highest
levels
in
politics,
business,
art,
sports,
academics
and
science,
yet
violence
against
girls
and
women,
gender-based
discrimination,
child
marriage
and
female
foeticide
is
widespread.
The
COVID
-19
pandemic
has
intensified
many
of
these
pre-existing
gender
biases.
We
have
also
seen
the
resilience
of
girls
and
women
as
leaders
and
problem-solvers
in
their
communities.”
She
adds,
“As
someone
who
is
living
her
dreams,
I
would
want
every
single
girl
to
have
the
same
opportunity
and
live
a
life
free
from
discrimination
and
social
stigma,
and
with
the
possibility
of
reaching
their
aspirations
and
their
potential.
Gender
equality
contributes
towards
better,
healthier,
more
progressive
societies
and
that
is
my
message
today.”
