An 82-year-old woman from Mumbai has gone viral on social media after she shared her inspiring story with the world through a video posted by Humans of Bombay. In the video, Zarine is heard saying that she has been driving since the 1960s and still drives herself to get around the city. Zarine shared that she was born and raised in Bombay and came from a progressive Muslim family who gave great importance to education.
At a time when girls were not encouraged to venture out or study beyond what was required at that time, Zarine became the first girl from both sides of her family to study in college. It was during this time that she developed a passion for driving, which would later be one of the biggest contributors to her self-confidence.
