It`s Somy Ali birthday today. The 90s actress, who will be turning a year older on March 25, believes today there is less discrimination towards women, in terms of age.

Somy, who has been part of films like Anth, Krishan Avtaar, Aao Pyaar Karen and runs a non-profit organization named No More Tears (NMT), says every year she is striving hard to better herself as a person. “I think times have changed significantly now and the mindsets are changing in terms of women getting older. There is progress for sure and less age discrimination, but again with everything related to women, we have a long way to go. I do know that with each year, I grow emotionally and feel like I understand the human species a bit better in terms of why we do the things we do, good and bad,” she says.
