Bollywood is all about romance. It has been since the dawn of the silver screen. But until very recently, Bollywood has not often portrayed the most important love story of all: the ones we have with ourselves! Two heroines who won our hearts by following their own dreams are Rani from Queen and Geet from Jab We Met! As we watch their journeys of self-discovery prevail through the movies, we can’t help but be left with a sense of awe and empowerment – knowing that they’re encouraging each and every one of us to embrace our inner selves and celebrate the fabulous women that we are!
