Shraddha Kapoor calls out for ‘Humanity’ Day

- Prashant Singh

Like every year, Internatio­nal Women’s Day was celebrated with a lot of fervour, on Thursday (March 8). Besides sharing Women’s Day wishes, actor Shraddha Kapoor had an unusual point to make through a tweet — she wants every day to be celebrated as ‘Humanity Day’.

“On this Women’s day just want to share what I feel. For women, men, elders, children & all living beings. Everyday should be humanity day. Happy humanity day everyone. Today and everyday (sic),” Shraddha tweeted. Immediatel­y enough, the actor’s ‘fresh point of view’ was being appreciate­d across the board, especially by her fans on social media.

Insiders close to Shraddha maintain that though she has a “lot of regard and admiration” for special days such as Women’s Day, the Ek Villain (2014) actor strongly feels that “humanity should be of paramount importance to each and every one”. “She has had very strong feelings about the same for a while now, and Shraddha thought what better occasion than Women’s Day to share her feelings with the world?” adds an insider.

Ask Shraddha about her fresh thought process and she says: “I was simply expressing my feelings. Yes, we have Women’s Day, Children’s Day, Environmen­t Day and many such other days but we don’t have anything like a Humanity Day. And that’s why I felt like stating that every day should be humanity day for us to be more ‘human’. By that I mean that we all need to be full of love towards everything in life.”
