Shahnaz Husain urges women to have a career, says "have to do something to prove your presence"

Beauty mogul Shahnaz Husain urges women to pursue careers, promote "woman power," and break barriers to prove their presence in the workforce.

"Women need to have a career. Have to do something to prove your presence. - Shahnaz Husain"

New Delhi, March 10

Renowned beauty expert and entrepreneur Shahnaz Husain has advocated stronger participation of women in workforce and emphasised promoting "woman power."

Speaking with ANI on the sidelines of an event, Shahnaz Husain urged women to pursue what they like.

"I think that every woman should work to do something that she likes. It's not important what you want; what really matters is how badly you want it. If you want something, nothing can stop you. There's something called woman power and that she must promote," Husain said.

"Women need to have a career. Have to do something to prove your presence. You can achieve anything; you must want it that much. If I want something, nobody can stop me. If I'm walking and I see a wall, I don't turn my back and walk home. I break the wall and walk through it and let the world fall into place," she added.

During the conversation, Husain also reflected on her own journey in the industry of cosmetics.

"When I started my career, there were no women in the cosmetic world, just men. And I started cosmetics for women's power, for them to show the world how lovely they are."

Shahnaz Husain's remarks come at a time when conversations around women's empowerment and career opportunities continue to gain momentum, especially in the wake of International Women's Day, which was observed on Sunday, March 8.

Respect to Shahnaz ji for building such an empire. But I feel the pressure on women is immense now - expected to manage career, home, kids perfectly. Society's support system needs to improve alongside this message.

"Break the wall and walk through it" - what powerful words! As a young professional in Bangalore, I face doubts every day. This is the motivation I needed. More power to all the women out there striving! ✨

Fully agree. An educated, financially independent woman contributes so much more to her family and the nation's economy. It's a win-win. My wife started her boutique last year and the confidence it has given her is amazing to see.

While the sentiment is good, "prove your presence" sounds a bit harsh. A woman's presence is inherent, not something to be earned through a career. Choice is key - whether to pursue a career, be a homemaker, or both. All are valid.

Great message post-Women's Day. We need more successful women like her to mentor the next generation. The journey from "log kya kahenge" to "nothing can stop you" is what India needs.
