A Movement for a ‘Green Flag’ Future
Kavita Ayyagari, Country Director, Girl Effect India, highlights “Love, relationships, and gender roles can feel like a maze for young people today, with so many mixed messages coming their way. With #SacchaPyaarKyaHaiYaar, we’re creating a space where they can talk with each other openly, challenge and figure out what a true partnership looks like. This campaign is all about nudging young women and men to build relationships based on trust, equality, and mutual respect—because true love should feel like a green flag, not a red one.”
In today’s world, where young people are navigating the complexities of love, relationships, and gender roles and trying to balance work and life together, it’s important to be able to discuss expectations with each other. With #SacchaPyaarKyaHaiYaar, we’re encouraging open conversations, where both women and men can challenge traditional roles and redefine what true love looks like. As women aspire for careers and financial freedom, it’s essential that men share the load at home—because equality in the relationship means less pressure for both sides. Men, too, deserve to break free from the pressure of always being the provider and protector, so they can experience love without feeling confined by stereotypes. True love should be about partnership, mutual respect, and shared responsibility, creating space for both individuals to thrive and grow together, that’s the thought behind this campaign.
