New Delhi: Elnaaz Norouzi, the Iranian born actor known for her work in the Netflix series Sacred Games, has joined the massive protest by women against Iran’s “morality police” by asserting their right to wear anything they want.
Ms Norouzi in a video posted on her Instagram account joined the protest by stripping several layers of clothes to make a point about what she wants to wear and no one can stop her.
“Every woman, anywhere in the world, regardless of where she is from, should have the right to wear whatever she desires and when or wherever she desires to wear it. No man nor any other woman has the right to judge her or ask her to dress otherwise,” Ms Norouzi wrote in the Instagram post.
“Everyone has different views and beliefs and they have to be respected. Democracy means the power to decide…Every Woman should have the power to decide over her own body. I am not promoting nudity, I am promoting freedom of choice,” she wrote.
