Sonam Kapoor talks about Fatma Begum
In the recent past, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja took to Instagram to talk about one of the legendaries of Indian cinema, Fatma Begum. Fatma Begum was the first female director and studio owner in Indian cinema. In an array of pictures, she curated some information about Fatma Begum and how she fought to get recognised in a male-dominated society.
The Khoobsurat actor also went on to share her personal experience of facing struggles to get recognised amongst the male of the industry. The actor’s note read, “For those of you who don’t know, at the beginning of my career, I AD’d with a director for almost 5 years. In a space that was largely dominated by men, I got a glimpse of what it means to be a woman in an otherwise man’s world. It is not easy.”

She wrote, “Looking at these women and reading about them, I cannot help but look up to them. Another inspiration of mine has to be Fatma Begum! She was a leader in so many ways.
