What happens when you discover your true sexuality after tying the knot in a traditional marriage? In this episode of Love Matters, Leeza Mangaldas speaks with standup comedian Anshita Koul about her groundbreaking personal journey. Married in her 20s in a heteronormative setup, Anshita later came out as queer in her 30s. They discuss the complexities of navigating identity, love, and societal expectations while in a committed marriage. How does coming out shift the dynamics of a relationship, and what are the challenges of finding yourself when the world expects you to fit into pre-defined boxes? Tune in to hear Anshita’s candid and humorous take on coming out in a deeply patriarchal society, her evolving perspective on marriage, and how she discovered her true self. Anshita Koul is an internationally touring standup comedian, currently based in Berlin. She also works as a Hindi Producer for the show EcoIndia at DW.
