MAY EDITION

As I sat down for a conversation with Vidya Balan, her insights on ‘Do Aur Do Pyaar’, relationship dynamics, and the secrets to a strong marriage opened my eyes to the profound shifts occurring in love. It dawned on me that in today’s rapidly changing world, traditional notions of relationships are being challenged like never before. If you thought that live-in relationships were bad, you’ve got to hear about the rise of situationships, a concept that’s entirely intriguing and somewhat alarming. These relationships blur the lines between friendship and romance, commitment and casualness, thriving on ambiguity and flexibility. Honestly, I found this whole concept crazy. It’s difficult for me to envision such relationships ending in anything but confusion, uncertainty, and chaos and offering great business to mental health experts.
