In a unique social media campaign, which encourages unleashing ones fears and exhibiting courage, the lead actress of Neerja, Sonam Kapoor has encouraged one and all to speak out loud about their fears and how they overcame it using brief video clips of their experiences.
Using the hero Neerja Bhanot as a synonym to courage, as the heroic young girl
displayed the emotion exorbitantly while facing fear during 1986's hijack of
PanAm flight 73.
The idea behind the campaign is to identify and acknowledge one's fears and
ways in which they overcame the same as this would encourage others to follow
suit in times of need.
The campaign has been generating tremendous response from all quarters with
B-town folks joining in abundance.
The campaign gained momentum with people speaking about their fear of spiders,
snakes, acceptance, ocean, heights, dreams amongst other fears.
Sonam Kapoor herself shared her fear of letting her father down.
