28 SET 2024 · What happens when you discover your true sexuality after tying the knot in a traditional marriage? In this episode of Love Matters, Leeza Mangaldas speaks with standup comedian Anshita Koul about her groundbreaking personal journey. Married in her 20s in a heteronormative setup, Anshita later came out as queer in her 30s. They discuss the complexities of navigating identity, love, and societal expectations while in a committed marriage. How does coming out shift the dynamics of a relationship, and what are the challenges of finding yourself when the world expects you to fit into pre-defined boxes? Tune in to hear Anshita’s candid and humorous take on coming out in a deeply patriarchal society, her evolving perspective on marriage, and how she discovered her true self. Anshita Koul is an internationally touring standup comedian, currently based in Berlin. She also works as a Hindi Producer for the show EcoIndia at DW.

3 FEB 2024 · Female pleasure and sex positivity are not often talked about very openly. What does sexual agency look like for women in contemporary India? And how does it differ from the ubiquitous images we see in media coverage and pop culture of the sexually liberated western women? In this episode of Love Matters, host Leeza Mangaldas is in conversation with book author and psychologist Amrita Narayanan about the many nuances of women’s sexuality in the context of a patriarchal society. What can sexual empowerment look like within the Indian context? And how does female pleasure pivot between “rapture and distress”?
