MUMBAI: They personify the "beauty" they acquire from their own struggles. They are huge reservoirs of strength, power, talent and yet go untapped.

Essel Group & ZEE, aptly, Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha and Chairman, Dr. Subhash Chandra said: “My best wishes for Fempowerment Women Achievers Awards Success. I would like to humbly communicate that in this men’s world (still it is) women have to recognize their own strengths which they possess and they will empower themselves, without any external assistance”.
Fempowerment is an initiative of Kiren Shrivastav in association with ZEE TV, intending to strengthen, motivate and acknowledge women across the country.
“It is a one-of-its- kind initiative, inviting the masses directly to nominate the most deserving women for the honours,” says Kiren Shrivastav.
