More often not it is patriarchy that influences what women can pursue as careers in our part of the world. This mobile phone commercial from Pakistan reflects how daughters should never be limited by family to pursue their dreams no matter how unconventional they are.
The story of the ad is about a young woman who wants to be a cricketer but has to face stiff opposition from her father who believes that cricket is something that only boys can do. This leads his daughter to leave her home and strive towards her goals.
In the end, the ad shows how women can achieve pretty much anything that men can as well and that parents must never forget that their encouragement and support for their children is indispensable.
