On the occasion of International Women’s Day, Dia Mirza had the opportunity to have a conversation with one of the world's most iconic father figures, Ziauddin Yousafzai, father to the Nobel Peace Prize laureate,  Malala Yousafzai. When Dia asked him what is the role that education plays in one's life, he said, "Education is a basic human right. In a child’s life, quality education is essential, just as food, water, shelter and love. It gives us the skills and the ability to think critically, so we can become full – fledged human beings.”
