Carlyta Mouhini, who has been actively involved in supporting women empowerment causes, said, "This is bliss. Rains and football are my stress busters.

"I'm glad Rakhi ably supported me in this cause and came forward to spread awareness about football in Mumbai.

"My ultimate aim is to see Indian team playing in the FIFA World Cup."
