Her Kajal Won't Smudge
In desi society, there are so many unwritten rules that define women’s behaviour. These “rules” are reinforced by the threat of reprisals and creating a system of policing a woman’s life choices, no matter where she lives. But things are changing. Online and offline, women (and men) are calling out all kinds of norms, like toxic rishta culture and beauty ideals. HKWS brings together and amplifies their voices. Join Shana as she talks to influencers, street protestors, artists, filmmakers and more about the many creative, vibrant, revolutionary ways in which they are imagining a better, fairer, world. With millions of followers, supporters and audiences that are growing in number, are we witnessing a desi women’s liberation movement? Has its time finally come?
So glad I found this podcast!

I’ve been looking for shows that center desi women’s voices and perspectives, so I was thrilled when I stumbled upon this show! I love that even in a handful of episodes, we’ve already heard from folks that we usually don’t - dark-skinned; queer; non-Hindu; mixed-caste/class. Thank you for making visible a range of identities. Update: just listened to the interview with Sadaf - what an amazing and challenging conversation! So much history I didn’t know and so much to process. Have loved this second season and hope you’re back with a third soon!
Brave Changemakers!

What a fantastic and much-needed podcast! Thank you for a shining a light on topics, and most importantly, on people/women who are ushering in a time of change and enlightenment, one step at a time. Also, I love the title:)
Brilliant

As a non Desi with deep social and corporate ties, I’ve always wondered how Desi women are so powerful in some realms and so subverted in others. Very interested to hear from these women! #hkws #comewhatmay
