Shah Rukh Khan launched Gunjan Jain’s debut book She Walks, She Leads in Mumbai on Thursday. Giving him company were Mukesh and Nita Ambani along with a host of other celebs. The book is “an anthology of 24 women achievers who are at the pinnacle of their professions.”
At the event, Shah Rukh gave an inspiring poem about why women are beautiful because they “fight like a girl.”
Watch SRK narrate the awe-inspiring poem right here:
Read the lines penned by King Khan himself about the struggles women face growing up.
“This is for girls who stay up all night, This is for you who are willing to fight,
For hidden fears, Hurt, pain, and tears, Under the smiles, laughs, and giggles we hear.
Let your hair down, straight or curls, You’re beautiful because you fight like a girl.
For girls who wears short skirts, And their heart on their sleeve, For girls who know how difficult, It is to believe,
The girls who scream and cry, Into their pillows and tell them their goals, For girls who have a secret, But can’t tell a soul.
Let your eyes be your diamond, Make them your pearls, You’re beautiful because you fight like a girl.
For girls who have made mistakes, And have regrets galore, Because you fight like a girl.
For the girls who love with all their heart, Although it sometimes gets
broke, To who think it’s over, To real girls, to all girls, Who have
tears to soak.
You throw, you pick up, and fall, But just tell the world,“I’m beautiful, Because I fight like a girl.”
