00:00You know Phoolan Devi, right? The interviewer asked her, what is your desire now?
00:04She said, God, make me a goat, a cow, an ant, anything in next life, but don't make me a
00:10woman.
00:10What would you like to become a woman in a young age?
00:12We would like to become a woman in a young age, but we wouldn't like to become a woman.
00:17And in the same interview, she said, now that she got elected, right?
00:20She became a political representative, you know of that.
00:22She said, I feel ashamed when these people bring me papers and I can't read properly,
00:26but now I'm learning in great haste and I want to be able to read everything and decide on my
00:32own
00:32and be a good representative.
00:34There is consciousness.
00:36She could have been so much more and given an opportunity, even at the fair end of her life,
00:42she was trying to be so much more in terms of reading, writing, understanding, talking, discussing,
00:48making policies, taking decisions.
00:49She was trying to be so much more, but in the initial part of her life,
00:52you know what happened to her, right? Repeatedly.
00:54Because that's how we look at women and we say this is our culture.
00:59And then to hide the very obscenity of it, we say we worship women as goddesses.
01:05Sir, really?
