Did you ever dream about finding love like in the movies? What would that actually look like? In this episode, Tanushree and guest Ragini Jha (mental health counselor and podcaster for Open Minds) ponder how South Asian and Western media affects the way women operate and exist within romantic relationships. We discuss how media portrayal of romance can be often toxic and fantastical. In regards to heterosecual pairings we question how women's representation in media affects feminism, brainstorming ways for women to be equal stakeholders in their romantic relationships with men. Movies with healthy or nuanced portrayals of relationships: - Kapoor and Sons - Queen - Ajeeb Dastans, specifically the episode "Ankahi" - Thappad - Ok Jaanu Ragini can be found: Instagram @cardamom.counselling Website: www.cardamomcounselling.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-desi-condition/support
