Says Sara Ali Khan, "I feel very very privileged. I'm a very proud Indian and I'm a very proud girl so I think that it's lovely that I can come here to this international forum and celebrate my Indianess and my Womanhood. While that's definitely a huge part of my identity, I think that in cinema gender doesn't matter ,nationality doesn't matter. We all come together to tell stories honestly and I'm happy to be here with these lovely ladies that are here to celebrate that."
