    Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia Deshmukh are considered to be one of Bollywood’s most popular couples as they’ve been giving major couple goals. The two have been together for almost 19 years and have maintained a relationship of equals in all these years.

    P&G’s virtual #WeSeeEqual Gender Equality summit got the two on board as they have been advocating gender equality and can give insight to others who need to understand it. Proctor & Gamble managed to get many panellists including Sania Mirza, Faye D’souza, Ritesh Deshmukh, Genelia Deshmukh, Shobana Kamineni, Falguni Nayar, Anupama Chopra, Dr. Huma Masood, Laxmi Narayan Tripathi, Ashwini Iyer Tiwari, and many more. P&G is trying to make a change by having people like Genelia and Riteish speak on an important topic like this.
    I was lucky enough to get in touch with the two and get an insight as to how they maintain a relationship of equality and respect.
    Excerpts from the interview:
    Genelia and Riteish, you both have been an inspiration for many couples as the two of you only ooze positivity. Whenever we see you, there’s a realization that you two have a relationship of two equals. In the 21st century, we are still struggling with gender inequality. How did you both manage it at your home?
    Genelia DeshmukhThere’s definitely inequality in general and this is something that you see every day. In the film industry, I feel it’s elevated. When I was getting married, people told me that this is it. I, then, also felt and now, I feel it if you should do what you want to. Today, if I want to get back into films, my husband will be extremely supportive. Everything just boils down to the fact how men have been raised and Riteish comes from a family where he has been taught how to respect women. I never had to face any issues on the home front. This is not forced respect. I really hope I also manage to raise my sons like him. When we became parents, he was doing his bit by taking care of the diapers and everything. His friends used to say that, ‘how could you?'. He always used to say, ‘he is my baby’. It’s a big thing among men and Riteish never paid heed to such things and this what makes our relationship one of equality.

    As Genelia mentioned that your friends were surprised to see you do household chores and take care of your sons. How did you handle this notion because it somewhere does bring in the aspect of toxic masculinity?
    Riteish DeshmukhThat was not the conversation with friends. It was more about how did you manage to do all of it because they didn’t have kids by then. They probably had a notion about not changing or using diapers but when they became fathers, they realized that they wanted to be part of it, themselves. It’s important for people out there to realize that it’s absolutely okay and necessary to share the load with your wife in everything that she does. Fathers can’t breastfeed the child but he can change the bottles or diapers. Fathers need to be mothers and mothers can also be fathers.
    Hats off to you. I have been wondering that you two have been with each other for nearly two decades now, there must have disagreements and downs in your relationship. How did you take care of not invading each other’s space and respecting one’s individuality?
    RiteishIt stems from mutual respect for each other. We might have had disagreements but they can’t cross the boundary of respect we have for each other. There’s a thin line called respect which can easily be breached. If you are aware of your limits, it can easily be handled. Beyond a certain point, things can be disrespectful. A man has no right to disrespect his woman and vice-versa. If the two of you manage to attain it, it’s a relationship of two equals. I believe a conversation can resolve everything and we have maintained that respect in our relationship since the inception. It’s been 19 years and you need to find newer things. We just started walking at the Worli-Sea Link with our masks on and we communicate in silence. We are just walking together holding our hands.

    GeneliaI think it’s true what Riteish just said and I always say that every relationship is a work in progress. It will have its new phases but it’s important to respect each other’s opinions and this is where most couples have the nastiest arguments. It’s all about moving on but also it gave us a new perspective. Communication has never taken a back seat in our relationship.
    As we are talking about the respect aspect, there’s something called the male ego which has been problematic in many relationships. What do you have to say about this?
    RiteishEgo basically stems from self-respect and also from a misplaced notion of where this self-respect needs to end. It’s important for people to understand how to use that ego in a good way. I feel as long as we talk about men and women being equal, certain things to be retained like be chivalrous to your lady. But, things like that ‘you can’t go in the kitchen, break that notion’. There’s always a middle ground when there are disagreements, try to stick to that and it’s a key for a successful relationship.

    Before we leave, I wanted to know your take on men’s mental health as MensXP is trying to burst that bubble.
    RiteishI believe mental health shouldn’t be categorized as men’s mental health or women’s mental health. It’s just it needs to be addressed. This is where the male ego comes to play and men think that they can’t share it with their families. In a nation like India, people think ‘yeh toh pagal ho gaya hai’. Things will change only with conversation and we need to be okay with seeking professional help.

    With a gazillion options to choose from, picking a movie sometimes can be a task. Usually one often finds surfing and catching up a blockbuster, a re-run of an Oscar winner or the clichéd dramas. If you find yourself in a spot and confused about what to watch, then try picking one of these classic gems:

    1. ManmarziyaanOne of the most underrated movies in recent times. Starring Taapsee Pannu, Abhishek Bachchan and Vicky Kaushal in the lead roles, this movie opens up in layers which are relatable and touches your heart. A couple madly in love where the guy is not sure what he wants to do in life, a girl looking for stability in life and battling the pressures of a conservative family, an NRI boy looking to marry for love, we all know someone who has been in a situation like this. Wonderful watch, in case you haven’t seen it.

    2. LooteraBased on a popular short story titled The Last Leaf, this brilliant movie is arguably Sonakshi Sinha’s best work till date. If there’s one thing I learned from this beautiful movie, it was the fact that words left unspoken and hearts lying broken hurts like no other. Say what you need to say, and stay where you are loved, instead of running away from it.

    3. One DayAnother beautifully written novel adapted in the movie of the same name. This one has notes of nostalgia, bitterness, love, loathing, regret and acceptance all mixed together. The film follows the protagonists Emma and Dexter for 20 years and the story wraps around a particular date in July. The ending might leave you questioning life but this movie makes you question a lot of things you know about love.

    4. Meri Pyaari BinduA Bollywood gem that wasn’t a commercial success but was such a fresh change of aesthetic and storytelling, that it’s a pity not many movies are following this narrative. The film captures the bittersweet ending to an unrequited love. The beauty of the movie lies in its mature storytelling that explains how it is okay to love someone without having them in your life. Oh and of course, 50 points to Gryffindor for the lovely Mana Ke Hum Yaar Nahi song.

    5. 102 Not OutIf you ever feel life is not fair, you want a big break, and everything seems out of love, watch this wonderful movie which is light hearted in its tone but has a beautiful message at the crux of its story. A son learning how to ‘live’ life from his father who is 102 years old himself. Above all, I‘d recommend you to watch it for the camaraderie shared by Rishi Kapoor and Big B.

    6. The Girl With The Dragon TattooThis is an underdog for anyone with a penchant to enjoy thrilling drama with twisted endings. Based on a novel series, this movie follows the story of a hacker and a journalist who are trying to solve the mystery of a missing woman.

    7. LucyAfter a performance enhancing drug steeps in her bloodstream, Lucy gains some extra physical and mental capabilities which make her see everything around her in a different light. Though it’s a sci-fi movie, the emotional meter of this movie goes up as the story progresses.

    8. Socha Na ThaYou probably have watched it while you were in school so it’s a good time to revisit this warm, well knitted tale of college romance. It's like a refreshing glass of lemonade on days when the heat gets too much, and the mind gets too dry.

    US businesswoman, socialite, reality TV star, and soon-to-be lawyer, Kim Kardashian has filed for divorce from rapper husband Kanye West over six years of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences”, according to E! News.

    “It’s gotten to the point where they haven’t spent time together as a married couple in months. They’ve seen each other for the sake of the kids but have been living separately. Kim knows the marriage is over. She’s known for a while,” a source said to the publication.

    While no official statement has been made so far about the divorce, the rumours of their differences have been surfacing up for a few months now. Being, one of the most prominent celebrity power couples around the world, the two got married back in 2014. Together, they have four children-. North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm West.

    In the divorce filing, Kim has requested joint legal and physical custody of the kids. “It’s the same thing over and over and over again. He’s on very thin ice with her right now, and she’s truly trying to decide what to do to protect the kids, but also her own sanity. The whole thing is discouraging and difficult for her,” a source told People.com.

    However, this comes as a shock to some people who have seen both Kim and Kanye support each other throughout the years. These include the times when:
    1. When They Were Super Proud Of Each Other's Achievements © Instagram/Kim Kardashian West
    It's the little instances when they displayed how proud they were of each other. For instance, when Kim hit 30 million Twitter followers and Kanye wasn't following anyone else but just her. Likewise, when Kanye received an honorary doctorate from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and Kim talked about it online expressing how proud she was of him.

    2. When Kim Made Yeezys Cool © Instagram/Kim Kardashian West
    Kanye debuted each of his Yeezy collections, each year that was bigger and better than the last one. The street drip, however, also got its significance as Kim started wearing his collection each time she stepped out. In fact, not just her, her sisters too started wearing Yeezys and that's what kickstarted the trend around Kanye's Yeezys.

    3. When Kim Supported Kanye Through Controversies © Instagram/Kim Kardashian West
    When Kanye debuted Yeezy Season 3, he also dropped his album, The Life of Pablo simultaneously. One sentence in particular in the lyrics piqued interest for everyone. In the song, Famous, Kanye raps, "I feel like me and Taylor might still have *** / I made that b*tch famous."

    Taylor in response said through her spokesperson, "Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single Famous on her Twitter account. She had declined and cautioned him about the song with blatant misogynistic symbolism. Taylor was never privy to the actual lyric." However, Kim started supporting Kanye publicly and in interviews. In an interview, she said, "She totally knew that that was coming out. She wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn't. [She] totally approved that [line in the song about Swift]."

    On Kim's Snapchat, she even posted the entire conversation between Kanye and Taylor later. In the video, Kanye asks Taylor for her feedback on the lyrics, and she says, "Go with whatever line you think is better. It's obviously very tongue in cheek either way. And I really appreciate you telling me about it, that's really nice!" However, the line read out to her is not revealed. While we're uncertain, who was in the wrong. We know Kanye and Kim's support through thin and thick.

    4. When Kim Reportedly Bailed Him Out Of Kim His $53M ‘Debt’ © Instagram/Kim Kardashian West
    Back in 2016, Kanye West had announced that he was allegedly in $53 million in debt. It appears Kanye West’s alleged debt burden was lifted, with the help of wife and fellow celebrity, Kim Kardashian West. She later posted, “busy cashing (her) 80 million video game check”, and transferring $53 million into a joint account. Despite efforts, no speculation as to whether West’s debt had reduced had been made public, until Kim's tweet.

    Clearly, this is the end of an era.
