Kirti Kulhari has a strong and encouraging message for women on Indias 73rd Independence Day. The actress feels that women are "powerful, super strong and can literally do anything that they want to in their life."

"People talk about women empowerment and all. Empowerment sounds like the wrong word to use when it comes to women because you empower someone who is weak. So, while you are perpetuating the idea of empowerment, you are also at the same time telling women that you are weak and you need empowerment. I really don't feel so. I think women are such powerful beings. They are just blessed with so much by nature purely from the virtue of being women," Kirti told IANS.
