When women pursue a passion, they do it with a spirit that defies reason! They also do it keeping their roles in life magically constant. If you meet a woman chef, or a woman police constable, you will wonder how she balances both roles, (personal life & professional work) and with perfection!
Well that, dear readers, is what the latest Bonanza Satrangi campaign is calling the #IamSatrangi woman – The one who balances her priorities yet keeps her eye on the ball!
Know any of them? We know 5 and here they are!
The 5 #IamSatrangi women we present to you on Women’s Day have redefined norms in a society that welcomes change but only if you have the courage to step out of your comfort zone and be the best in what you do.
There is no place for mediocrity.
What we love about these #IamSatrangi women is that they have chosen a hard path to tread – a path that is hugely dominated by males, and where most women, (previously, and even now), fear to tread. To excel in a field where you have to first be accepted as a serious contender, is a challenge indeed.
So without any further ado, we bring to you, the 5 #IamSatrangi women who’re making Women’s Day so special for us!
1. Areeba Siddique – The Millenial Artist Has Arrived
Our first Satrangi woman is none other than Areeba Siddique – The girl who’s Instagram account is so Art-happening that we can’t take our eyes off it!
Areeba’s Art is not just pretty, its creative, thought-provoking, witty, and makes a social statement in its subtle yet blunt observations!
How do you even do that?
You ask.
Oh well, that’s why we follow her page, coz it gives us hard-hitting social commentary with a mix of quiet reflection.

Areeba has found a gentle balance between her creative expression and her need to speak out on the wrongs in our society. Some cutting social commentary there. She has certainly reinvented the wheel by voicing her thoughts through her Art.
Areeba is every woman.
Her ideas, her creations and her words speak to young girls all over Pakistan, and that’s why she is the perfect #IamSatrangi girl!

2. Zenith Irfan – The Biker Who’s Setting No Limits!
Whether she is biking in the valleys of Chitral, or the bustling streets of Karachi, Zenith is a girl with a dream and she knows no boundaries!
The Best Part?
She is riding the bike solo! Yes, you heard that right, Zenith Irfan completed her journey to the northern areas of Pakistan on bike. The journey that she embarked on to fulfill her father’s dream, changed into a raving passion in no time.

Commute has always been a problem for Pakistani women, they depend on their brother, father, cousins, Careem captains, buses, and autos for moving around. Zenith is letting everyone know that it should not be this way.
Zenith Irfan is challenging the norms set by society that women can’t travel alone, well guess what? They can! Zenith’s trip to the Himalayas signifies hope.
“The biggest hardship that I had to address was the fear inside me. Motorcycles are dangerous and I knew I had to befriend the monsters if I wanted to ride one. ” – Zenith Irfan
Zenith is an #IamSatrangi woman for the courage she displayed in facing her own fears!
We asked Zenith: Where a Woman’s place really is?
“Her own self-persona. Her heart. A woman’s place is where she creates it. Space she wants to be in and loves to be in!”
We agree for sure! Follow Zenith on Instagram to be part of her journey and catch up on her latest expedition!

4. Zarnak Sidwa – A Chef Who’s Setting An Example
Zarnak embarked on her kitchen adventures with some Chocolate making experiments. Gradually, the home cooking endeavours led to culinary certifications and a world full of opportunities.
Zarnak’s very first appearance on a Television Cooking show saw her teaching the Parsi popular dish Dhansak to viewers as well as how to make cottage cheese! She hasn’t looked back since!

Zarnak says she always takes out some time when on a trip to further her expertise by signing up for a culinary class as well. We love the way she tends to her own passion as much as to the people in her life!
