Yuvaa's "Be A Man, Yaar!" has returned, featuring a lineup of interesting discussions, and here are four reasons why you shouldn't miss it out!
India is not an exception to the influence of patriarchy and despite more people calling out and combating these norms, it still feels like the road to true gender equality remains long and challenging. While we find the space to discuss women's empowerment, the experiences of men within this patriarchal society end up being ignored. People are more inclined to admire the historic archetype of a macho man who is strong, stoic, and protective to the extent that it has subconsciously made men want to conform to them. However, there has been a steady shift and it is encouraging to witness society trying to adopt a better approach to understanding masculinity. Especially with shows like Yuvaa's "Be a Man, Yaar!" as a great example of how we're starting to question and redefine what it truly means to be a man in today's world.
In 2023, Yuvaa, a popular media company, released India's first chat show on positive masculinity called "Be A Man, Yaar." The show featured heartwarming and unique conversations with well-known men like Naseeruddin Shah, Karan Johar, Vicky Kaushal, and Zakir Khan. The chat show made us all realize the need for such conversations getting millions interested in men's emotions and positive masculinity. The show is back for a second season and this time it is focusing on the 'humanity' behind masculinity.
In this season, we will see Entrepreneur and Yuvaa Co-Founder, Nikhil Taneja, having candid conversations with the guests. He’ll be chatting with some of India’s most well-known figures, including Javed Akhtar, Kartik Aaryan, Bhuvan Bam, Manish Malhotra, Rohan Bopanna, Dr Vikas Divyakirti, Gajraj Rao, Boman Irani, Imran Khan, Ankush Bahuguna, Viraj Ghelani, Aryan Pasha, and Prateek Kuhad. Yuvaa’s YouTube channel has already dropped some episodes. The first episode of the season features actor Kartik Aaryan who shares his journey in a candid conversation. Another episode featuring Bhuvan Bam saw the creator share some unheard stories about his life and career. This season will explore deeper issues such as mental health, loneliness, male friendships, therapy, fatherhood, insecurities, and how to build and maintain healthier relationships with women.
