Wrong touch
Deepika Padukone

Women are fighters, says Kareena
Kareena Kapoor Khan, at a recent event in Mumbai said, women are capable of fighting their way out of every situation in life. “I think women are way more superior then men. We are fighters and whatever the situation might be in our life — be it personal or professional — we all come out as fighters. Like I said before, we call our god Laxmi, we pray to her and she is a woman, and when we talk about our land, we call it motherland...so, women are way more superior. We will fight out of every situation in life,” Kareena said. Zaira, apart from celebrities like Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif, Sridevi, Madhuri Dixit, Juhi Chawla, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Bhumi Pednekar and Sushant Singh Rajput, was present for the event.
