‘Society still judges ambitious women’

Actress Saba Azad reflected on how, despite all the talk for progress, society still finds it difficult to accept ambitious women. Speaking to IANS, the Who’s Your Gynac? actress stated that the system in general is built to help men succeed, while women often have to work twice as hard to make a mark for themselves. She was asked, “Do you think society still finds it difficult to accept ambitious women unless they have support from somewhere else?” Reacting to the question, Saba shared, “Women often have to work twice as hard to prove themselves.

We still live in a patriarchal society where judgment comes very quickly when it comes to women. The system has traditionally been built for men and their success.” “In many parts of our country, women are still not allowed to work freely or make independent choices. We may not always see that reality in cities, but it exists. So women constantly have to prove themselves, not just professionally but also at home. If they work, they are judged. If they do not work, they are judged again,” she went on to add.
