She said, “No, honestly I’m never been told that because I genuinely try to see it from two points of view.” Shah also mentioned that she views herself as a feminist and added, “Even when I am asked, are you a feminist, I want to say yes I am, because the dictionary meaning of feminism is equality between genders, it’s not one-upmanship.
