Ratna Pathak Shah at Indian Cultural Congress 2025 delivered a stirring reading of the official declaration, calling for a global shift in how we perceive ownership and artistic expression. In a powerful session held in Kochi, Kerala, the veteran actor emphasized that while the “fruits of the earth belong to us all,” the “earth itself belongs to none.”

The first-ever Indian Cultural Congress (ICC) concluded with a resonant call for secularism, peace, and the freedom to create without fear. Shah, representing the Mumbai artistic community alongside figures like Mammootty and T.M. Krishna, highlighted the “Respect Principle,” linking the survival of our ecosystems to the protection of our cultural freedom. This video captures her poignant address on the intersection of art, literature, and the climate crisis.
