Actor Juhi Chawla is known to speak her heart out about women-related issues. While she is all for empowerment of women and equal opportunities, Juhi is of the opinion that ‘women are born empowered.’
She says, “They (women) are one half of the population and they are responsible for the [existence] of [the] other half, and I don’t think anyone beats that. So, who is anyone to empower them!”
Juhi agrees that there has been a positive change, as now, [the] circumstances are [such that the society is] more open about women taking up work. She, however, adds that ‘women are more burdened’ now. “They are asked to manage home and work.”
