8th March, the day to especially celebrate women power, celebrate their presence in all spheres of life and pledge to make this world a better place for them to live. As we continue to live amid a time full of uncertainty, direct assaults on our gender identity and discrimination spread across various spheres, we need more and more prominent faces speaking up.

Well, Virat Kohli just did!

In his latest tweet wherein he urges all of us to tag the extraordinary women in our lives, Virat dedicates a powerful message to not just wife Anushka Sharma, but all the strong women out there.

“Sexual harassment, discrimination, sexism, domestic abuse and threats of violence. The list goes on. Despite all of this, women rise and shine in all walks of life. Still think they’re equal? No. They’re better than equal,” he smiles.

How fortunate he must be feeling, to have a strong, self-sufficient and fearless woman like Anushka as his life partner!

On that note, Happy International Women’s Day to you! 🙂
