Her new book The 12 Commandments of Being a Woman is a book for every woman and man who wants to know what women want! I wonder who I should gift it to. Any suggestions?” wrote the Shakuntala Devi (2012) actress.

The 12 Commandments Of Being A Woman is a very special book. It is something that I wanted to pen for a long time now. I hope women will be able to relate to it. This is book is for everyone who has been able to crush stereotypes and be a rebel. I believe that all of us must celebrate norm-breaker in us.”
