Happy Women's Day to our readers!
This year's International Women's Day revolves around the theme, Pledge For Parity.
We quizzed actors and musicians, directors and PR mavens about what Women's Day means to them and how they plan to work towards a more equal society.

What does Women's Day mean to you?
I don't appreciate one day of the year only being assigned to recognising a woman's strength. She doesn't need a day to know how special or how brilliant she is.
Name 3 women whom you admire and why
I admire my mother, I admire the courage of all independent women and I admire the resilience of every homemaking woman.
How do you plan to do your part for gender equality?
I hate to admit but men and women may not after all be equals. But what can be equal is the respect given to both. No one deserves more respect than the other. One has to play that part everyday to make sure women are respected starting from your home to the workplace, to the streets and even on television.
