The 'women supporting women' challenge is something that is all over the internet. The women started posting their black and white pictures with the hashtag #challengeaccepted leaving everyone wondering. The movement initiated by the Turkish women ultimately led to one common emotion of 'women power and voicing against domestic violence.' Just like many other Bollywood stars, Anushka Sharma too chipped in into the trend. Challenge Accepted! Here's The Reason Why Women Are Posting Their Selfies in Black and White With Hashtags #ChallengeAccepted And #WomenSupportingWomen.

The actress turned producer wore a gorgeous mini. She looks like a true diva in that perfectly winged eyeliner and sleek ponytail. However, it's her message that is truly noteworthy.  An excerpt from her caption reads as, "The world wants us to be in this lower state of mind as it benefits from our lack of self-esteem. In reality we are all unique and individually brilliant. Resilient and resolute. The success of one woman will only benefit many others."

She adds, "It will lay the foundation for little girls to aspire to be their true expression not what is laid out for them. To all the women who have inspired me, I bow down to your grace and strength that has lifted me when I needed it and to the ones who tried to push me down, I know this world can be harsh & that you were struggling with yourself and I love you just the same."

#ChallengeAccepted 💜 Thank you @anaitashroffadajania, @freddy_birdy, @katrinakaif and @banij for nominating me. It takes a lot more effort, strength, perseverance, wisdom, knowledge, patience & grit for us to navigate life as the world has always been skewed against us. No one knows this better than us. Standing together in solidarity and not falling for the trap that is constantly laid down for us is our victory. A trap that makes us compare & judge one another. Competing forever in the wrong race. Truthfully see how many times we might have fallen to this trap. The world wants us to be in this lower state of mind as it benefits from our lack of self-esteem. In reality we are all unique and individually brilliant. Resilient and resolute. The success of one woman will only benefit many others. It will lay the foundation for little girls to aspire to be their true expression not what is laid out for them. To all the women who have inspired me, I bow down to your grace and strength that has lifted me when I needed it and to the ones who tried to push me down, I know this world can be harsh & that you were struggling with yourself and I love you just the same ❤️ Nominating @shraddhakapoor, @mspunvanity, @kanikakarvinkop, @alliaalrufai, @cloverwootton, @tripti_dimri & @eefa_shrof. 📸- Tarun Vishwa
