Shahid Kapoor’s wife is turning out to be a strong lady with a firm mind of her own. At the Event and Entertainment Management Association (EEMA) event, she spoke about being a proud housewife. EEMA has been championing a key initiative entitled WE CARE focused on safety and an environment of equality for women in events, entertainment and media. This is Mira’s second coming out and speaking her mind (she had come on Koffee With Karan this season with husband Shahid Kapoor).

“I am a housewife and wear that label with pride. Why can’t you be an accomplished homemaker? Accomplishing could mean anything one has their heart set on. I had a tough pregnancy, bringing Misha (seven-month-old daughter) into this world. Now, I love being at home and spending time with my child. I don’t want to spend an hour with her and then rush to work. It’s not that I am not a woman of today. You don’t have to compromise on traditions and ideals to be modern.”

She spoke about her arranged marriage too. She said “It has worked out beautifully. It’s like any other marriage. We get along, have our fights, laugh a lot and raise our baby together. We are best of friends. When we step out, we are two people taking on the world.” She spoke about post- pregnancy flab. “I think it’s great to be fit, but better to be a healthy mother. I faced a lot of pressure when people photographed me. I used to be skinny, but after Misha, I would try on clothes, wondering if my tummy will show. It’s okay to take time to lose weight. I could have been out and about, but chose to spend time with Misha. It is my choice to be at home. A working mother makes her own choices too; neither [homemaker or working mom] can be shamed. Feminism is not man versus woman. The new wave of feminism is aggressive and destructive. There is a term called FemeNazi, which is now becoming the female equivalent of male chauvinist.” We say bravo!
