“Always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody says distract you from your goals. There is no limit to what we as women can accomplish “ - Michelle Obama.
This year Women’s Day is a special one. I was invited by Ariel India for the special screening of Marvel’s Latest and the very First Female Led Super Hero movie ‘Captain Marvel. I was so excited to watch Carol Danvers; the first Marvel Woman Superhero transform into Captain Marvel. I was also pleasantly surprised to learn that this movie is co-directed by a woman, Anna Boden. Well, another first for Marvel and a great progress for womenkind as a whole. For me, Anna is also a super hero.
The screening was organised in PVR Saket Mall. When I reached the mall, I saw the Team Ariel set up a big stage on the ground floor. The #sharetheload is a novel initiative by Ariel India. There were some Television celebrities Ravi Dubey and Sargun Mehta who had also come for the screening and took the promise to #sharetheload not only on Women’s Day but every day. I could see people cheering and watching them from various levels of the mall. There was also a special booth set up for men to record a message for the special woman in their life.
After clicking a few pictures there, I was led by the Ariel team to the screening auditorium. And there was a huge surprise waiting for me. There was an Anti-gravity booth set up just outside the theatre that gave an illusion of outer space. I had fun clicking my picture inside the booth.
The movie was filled with moments of breathtaking action scenes, witty one-liners and inspiring every woman, ‘that no matter what one tells you, be yourself. You fall, only to stand up stronger’. Captain Marvel embodies lot of positives which should act as an inspiration for today’s women. I can’t wait to see her in the next Avengers film. I am going to be cheering for her.
Some of them that stand out for me are her “never say die” attitude, the tenacity and self-belief, leading by example, the confidence with which she approaches every task. It matched the sentiment that Ariel shared that for centuries women have been stereotyped in doing certain chores.
It is time for men to step up and #sharetheload.
With love,
