In a nation where girls are often told to play safe, Saniya Kadree tells them to play strong.
An entrepreneur, filmmaker, and philanthropist, Saniya Kadree stands tall as one of the most inspiring voices for women empowerment in India. Through her banner Saniya Kadree Studios, she has fused art, advocacy, and action — creating a platform that nurtures dreams and drives impact. Her latest mission takes her beyond the lens and into the sports field, empowering India’s daughters to rise — one dream, one sport at a time.
“Every daughter deserves the right to play,” says Saniya. “A girl who learns to play learns to live fearlessly. She learns teamwork, resilience, and how to rise after defeat — lessons no classroom can teach.”
Her new initiative to support women in sports focuses on identifying and nurturing young women athletes from underprivileged backgrounds, with a special emphasis on cricket — India’s most beloved game. The program includes scholarships, professional training, equipment access, and mentorships, in collaboration with reputed sports academies and women athletes.
Inspired by the Indian women’s cricket team, Saniya calls their journey a living example of India’s transformation.
“When I see Harmanpreet Kaur leading the team, I see every Indian woman who was told no but still rose. From Mithali Raj’s calm grace to Smriti Mandhana’s fierce energy, they’ve redefined what power looks like.”
Beyond sports, Saniya Kadree’s philanthropy extends to education, menstrual health, and creative skill development for girls. Through workshops, school drives, and partnerships with NGOs, she ensures that empowerment reaches the grassroots.
“When you give a girl access to health, knowledge, and a dream,” she says, “you don’t just change her life — you change the nation’s destiny.”
Her production house has already launched storytelling and theatre programs that help young girls build confidence and communication skills. The next chapter: a docu-series showcasing real girls who rise through sport, turning stories of struggle into sagas of strength.
“Talent doesn’t need pity; it needs opportunity,” says Saniya Kadree. “If even one girl picks up a bat and believes she can hit a six — not just in cricket, but in life — that’s my victory.”
Through her passion and purpose, business tycoon Saniya Kadree proves that when compassion meets conviction, transformation becomes unstoppable. Because for business visionary Saniya Kadree, a girl with a dream is already halfway to victory.
