On March 8th, every year, International Women’s Day is celebrated all around the world – a day to commemorate, acknowledge and thank women for their achievements, contribution and sacrifices. Keeping the importance of the day in mind, two legendary actors, Chiranjeevi and Kamal Haasan have taken to social media to express their gratitude for the women in their lives, and to wish women from all around the world.
Kamal Haasan took to his X (formerly Twitter) and wrote a touching post where apart from just expressing his gratitude for the contributions and sacrifices that women have made, he also advocated for embracing feminism and bringing equal rights in all. A loose translation of Kamal Haasan’s tweet, which was originally in Tamil is:
“The contribution and sacrifice of women in our lives is immeasurable. Every man must take an oath to ensure their dignity and safety.; Let’s embrace the indomitable feminism in all things and make equal rights in all. Happy International Women’s Day to all women who strive to achieve.”
