International Men’s Day: Happy to celebrate both genders, says Megha Sharma

This International Men's Day, actress Megha Sharma, who plays the role of Chhabili in the show Pandya Store, says that she is glad that both genders are being respected and treasured. She says that she really values the men in her life.

“I feel proud that we have started celebrating every gender and giving them equal importance. I thank all the men in my life whether from my family, my friends or whoever has helped me to become the person I am today,” she says.

She adds, “We live in the 21st century where people are more towards the 'no gender day'. I have seen how they celebrate all genders and show respect for every human being.”

It is believed that women express themselves and also talk about their emotions whereas men do not express them. Talking about this notion, she says, “People should understand that men and women both are expressive but have different ways of expressing themselves. Both of them need a safe environment where they can share their emotions and talk about things that bother them.”

She adds, “We have always heard that men don't cry but in reality men do cry. And they must express their pain whether by crying or doing anything that relaxes their mind. They are humans too and they too need a comfortable space where they can share their emotions or cry without the fear of being judged.”
