Rani Khanam is the only Indian Muslim classical dancer of note who has dared to dance to Islamic verses. In the past, she performed a number of issue-based dance productions about women’s rights, HIV/AIDS, gender equality and disability. A Kathak exponent, she has also worked with living legends of Sufi mystic musicians from Turkey, Cairo, Bosnia and Morocco. "I believe the essence of Islam in its purest aspect has been embedded in Sufism. Actually, Sufi is a way of life," she says.

Tashi and Nungshi Malik are the first siblings and twins to climb the Seven Summits and reach the North and South Poles as well as complete the Adventurers Grand Slam and Three Poles Challenge. In 2016, the Dehradun-based duo were conferred India’s highest adventure honour, the Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award by the President of India. "Many parents in Haryana see their daughters as a burden and ‘someone else’s property’ or ‘paraya dhan’. We hope that by our achievements, these parents will change their views and will give equal opportunities to daughters. The first thing we did on reaching a summit was to strike a steel plate with a spoon as a celebration of being girls, much like families in many parts of rural India do to celebrate and announce the birth of male child to their neighbours!"
