Ep 31 - Women’s Role in India’s Century | Shrayana Bhattacharya

In this Episode of SparX, Mukesh Bansal, Founder of Myntra & Cult.Fit is in conversation with Shrayana Bhattacharya, economist and author of "Desperately Seeking Shah Rukh”. Join us as we explore Shrayana’s valuable insights into the lives of resilient women facing societal norms and economic challenges.

From discussing the struggles of working women in India to emphasising collective action and societal cohesion to address systemic problems, Shrayana highlights the shared responsibility in tackling gender inequality. She calls for breaking away from privileged perspectives, advocating for diversity, inclusion, and the inclusion of fresh voices to pave the way for genuine progress. Shrayana also gives us a sneak peek of her vision for her next book, "Tyranny of the Indian Uncle," which focuses on Indian men in their 50s, exploring the privileges and challenges of being a man in today’s society
