Special V-Day interviews with Jane Fonda, Eve Ensler, Marisa Tomei and Hibaaq Osman conducted exclusively for Verve by Meher Marfatia in Mumbai

Jane Fonda

The ultimate Been There-Done That cult actress born to Hollywood aristocracy, has long provided the glamorous face to anti-Establishment causes.

Eve Ensler

Credited with such other outstanding plays as Necessary Targets (read with a cast including Pakistani actresses on the same visit to Mumbai that The Vagina Monologues was staged), Lemonade and The Depot, her work directed towards ending domestic violence has grown out of her own experiences with abuse.

Marisa Tomei

The two-time Academy nominated star with an acclaimed performance in My Cousin Vinny earning an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, has unstintingly lent her talents to V-Day.

Hibaaq Osman

Special Representative for V-Day in Asia, Africa and the Middle East, she hopes to forge alliances reaching out to isolation felt in individual countries
