Mehr-un-Nisa, bouncer at Social, bar and cafe in Hauz Khas Village, New Delhi

Mehr-un-Nisa was meant to get married at age 14 but fate had other plans for her. The daughter of a conservative small time businessman from Saharanpur, Nisha, as she calls herself now, has struggled with patriarchy her entire life. Today, the girl whose education was almost discontinued by her father, takes immense pride in being one of the main earning members of her clan.
