"I work in an industry where women are revered and respected. I have had the privilege of dressing some of the most beautiful and powerful women in the world, but when I step out of the door and into the stark reality of the streets, I see the injustice and inequality all around me," Malhotra said in a statement.
The designer has dressed celebrities like Madhuri Dixit, Karisma Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif.
