Quotes

Seema Pahwa

Actress and real-life partner of Manoj Pahwa

“When the work was divided between men and women, that men will go out to work and women will stay at home, the reason behind this must have been a woman’s nature, a woman is very soft by nature, and she is a mother since birth. For her to take responsibility of the home comes automatically.”
