The actor made the comments as he marked the first ever International Day for the Girl Child.
He told Hindustan Times: "Being an actor and having spent almost four decades in showbiz, it's my responsibility to associate myself with causes which I feel strongly for.
"My life is ruled by three women - my two daughters and wife. Women are superior to men in every field and I feel they should be worshipped. I always had more female friends than male ones."
Kapoor praised his daughter Sonam's approach to the Bollywood film industry so far.
"Sonam always says that she doesn't want to be a decorative element in a film. She wants a substantial role and to get that, she has rejected many film offers," he added.
"Being a father I am proud of this attitude of hers. I know in the long run it will help her evolve as a good actress and will make her base strong."
In September, he denied that he tries to influence his daughter's showbiz choices.
