Actor Nadia Jamil has always been a vocal advocate for women, sharing that we all have only one life and shouldn’t waste time trying to live up to other people’s expectations.
Throughout her career she’s become more and more fierce and has used her platform to speak openly with fans about important issues that women face in their daily lives.

“1/As women we are conditioned 2 idolise a very colonised, stereotyped image of beauty. Being in the business of narrating stories, it’s not always easy, but so essential, 2 ask people 2 challenge these stereotypes,” penned Jamil.
Emphasising on self-love, the ‘Behad’ actor wants women to break away from dangerously unrealistic beauty standards and debunk these age-old stereotypes.
