Women are the stronger beings: Amitabh Bachchan

“Women must have the respect of equality…they are the stronger beings,” says Amitabh Bachchan

Amid discussions on women’s safety in India, cinestar Amitabh Bachchan, who is the UN ambassador for the Girl Child, has demanded “respect of equality” for the “stronger beings”.

“Women power! Women must have the respect of equality…they are the stronger beings…when they prosper, society prospers, mankind (and I use this word specifically to address the menfolk, as opposed to womenkind in other references) can and shall only exist with them, not without,” Big B posted on his blog on Friday.
