S1E5: Navigating the Problematic Narratives Around Conventional Beauty Standards | Nidhi Sunil

The IKKIVI Podcast

Welcome to the fifth episode of ‘The IKKIVI Podcast’. In this episode, joining us is Nidhi Sunil, a model, actress and activist. She actively uses her platform to talk about colourism as well as genderside as part of an organization called the ‘Invisible Girl Project’. On this week’s show, we discuss the problematics of conventional narratives around beauty, the ways in which discrimination can affect our mind and livelihoods, the importance of reflecting on our experiences and questioning the status quo, and the dualistic role of social media in being able to break from many social injustices. In this conversation, Nidhi calls our attention to the individual and personal nature of everyone’s journey through different challenges, the value of being vulnerable and voicing ourselves and our experiences, as well as the changes currently under play in the fashion and media industries. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ikkivi/message
