S2 Episode 8 - The hidden tax of choice
<p>Shrayana Bhattacharya is easily the most fun economist we know. Working at the World Bank’s Social Protection and Labour unit for South Asia, she is also the author of a bestselling book, Desperately Seeking Shah Rukh: India's Lonely Young Women and the Search for Intimacy and Independence. </p><p>Shrayana spent 15 years exploring women’s economic independence through the lens of actor Shah Rukh Khan. Why? Because an SRK movie is a form of escape - and for many women, a luxury - in a life of navigating the patriarchy. </p><p>In this episode, she speaks with Aditi and Christina about bargaining with the patriarchy, the loneliness that can come from seeking out independence, the hope she has for India’s gender norms, and why we all need to be a lot less judgemental–and a lot more supportive—of one another along the way. </p><p>Follow Shrayana on Twitter here: @BShrayana </p><p><br></p><p>Desperately Seeking Shah Rukh can be purchased on the Harper Collins India website here: https://harpercollins.co.in/product/desperately-seeking-shah-rukh/ </p><p><br></p><p>Join the conversation: </p><p>Instagram: @womeninlabour</p><p>Facebook: @womeninlabour</p><p>Twitter: @WILPodcast </p><p><br></p><p>Credits:</p><p>Host and Executive Producer: Christina MacGillivray</p><p>Host and Executive Producer: Aditi Mittal</p><p>Executive Producer & Brand Director: Laura Quinn</p><p>Chief of Staff: Priya Kapoor</p><p>Marketing Director: Maanya Sachdeva</p><p>Head of Production: Mae Mariyam Thomas</p><p>Senior Producer: Divita Oberoi</p><p>Sound Supervisor: Kartik Kulkarni</p><p>Audio Editor & Mix Engineer: Lakshman Parsuram</p><p>Junior Producer: Nikkethana Kamal</p><p>Junior Editor: Yash Hirave </p><p>Women In Labour is generously supported by a grant from the American Center, New Delhi.
