For generations, Indian men have been conditioned to see sex as something to chase and dominate, but not to express themselves.

In Episode 7 of The Durex Podcast, we dive deep into the impact of how masculinity shapes men’s relationship with sex, desire, and intimacy with our incredible:

Dino Morea: A talented actor and a former supermodel, who also serves as a fitness entrepreneur and advocate for healthy living.

Rohan Joshi: A renowned, talented comedian and writer, known for his witty take on life and everything else under the sun.

Through raw, honest conversations, we explore how shame, fear of “underperforming,” and the lack of emotional literacy keep men disconnected from pleasure. And how cultural expectations of masculinity shape the way men experience desire, intimacy, vulnerability, not only with their partners but also themselves.

Tune in for an honest, overdue conversation about masculinity, sex, and everything men were never taught to talk about.

In episode 6 of The Durex Podcast, we dive deep into the impact of cinema on our understanding of sex, relationships, and pleasure. Featuring Konkona Sen Sharma, a National Award-winning actor and director, and Dibakar Banerjee, an acclaimed film director and screenwriter, we explore how Bollywood and cinema have shaped our childhood memories, sexual fantasies, and societal views on intimacy. From the portrayal of sex in cinema to the unconscious lessons we learn growing up, this episode is a candid conversation on the intersection of culture, sexuality, and pleasure. Konkona and Dibakar share their personal experiences, reflect on how movies influenced their perceptions of sex and pleasure, and discuss the nuances of gendered representations in cinema. Tune in for an honest, real, and culturally rich conversation that challenges societal norms and celebrates the complex relationships between culture, cinema, and sex.

In this eye-opening episode of The Durex Podcast, we uncover a startling reality: nearly 70% of Indian women don’t experience orgasm during sex. Host Abhay Deol engages in a candid and insightful conversation with Neha Dhupia and @SumukhiSuresh , exploring the “orgasm gap,” the silence around female pleasure, and the deep-rooted societal pressures that shape women’s experiences with desire and intimacy in India.They challenge common misconceptions by discussing why intercourse often doesn’t equate to pleasure for many women, the stigma that keeps female voices unheard, and what men need to understand to bridge this gap and foster real intimacy. This episode invites listeners to rethink intimacy, break taboos, and embrace open, honest conversations about female desire and pleasure. In this episode, we discuss:

Societal taboos around female pleasure & desire

How our views on sex shape gender roles

The role of foreplay and two way communication

Why sex is about so much more than just intercourse

How sex & intimacy evolve as women grow older

The importance of female friendships
