The actor shared her thoughts for the book 'Changemakers'

Actor Taapsee Pannu written the foreword for the book ‘Changemakers’.Authored by Almas Virani and Sweta Samota, the book comprises the journey of 11 powerful Indian women, who managed to bring a substantial change in the society after attending ‘She Creates Change’, a programme by Change.org.

Taapsee Pannu is leading by example through her films, and her ideologies, in bringing a change for women. Her latest release Rashmi Rocket takes up gender issues, and shows how one person is capable of being a changemaker, and that it all starts from within. She mentions that person’s hurdles come from within and one should believe in oneself. She writes: “And the day you feel low on confidence and you feel your voice doesn’t matter anymore, just go through a few pages of this book and you will know that you see a better society today because these women didn’t shush their voices.”

Almas is a public speaking and podcast coach, corporate trainer and a changemaker, while Sweta, is a book coach, with a degree in software engineering. The book stands for what both these women believe in and that is, to bring a change by being the change, and enabling the change.

Talking about the book and their novel attempt to create change, Almas and Sweta say, ”If we set out heart and mind to it, we are capable of creating a change, and one will be surprised to see the wonders one can do. While we understand that bringing a change in any walk of life is a journey, we also feel that one can get inspired by looking at those that these 11 changemakers have taken.”

Slated to hit the shelves on October 19, the book will be available at Crossword bookstores and on Amazon.
