Kunwar Amar, currently seen in the hit show Anupama, emphasizes the critical issue of men's mental health. "This is a topic that has been running in my mind for quite a long now. Men's mental health has been neglected so much by everyone that it has been accepted around the world that men don’t have emotional breakdowns and they don’t go through mental stress," says Amar.

"Men have been told since they are born that real men don’t cry, they don’t fall weak and cannot have personal issues. Today when we talk about equality and try to give it so much importance, it has subsided how men feel," he adds. "Society has always imbalanced things by forcing their norms, first women have been forced to be in the house and not allowed to do things as they like and now men are living in fear. I feel it’s sad that we are failing to create a balance in our society and take care of each other.”

Regarding Women’s Day and Men's Day, Amar notes, “I agree. Everyone still expects men to fulfill their duty and earn money to take care of their house and provide and protect everyone and they have been valued on how much they earn." He highlights the challenges men face in a materialistic world where financial success often dictates one's worth. "Just imagine when a man has good manners and high values but he doesn’t make good money then he will not be the man everyone wants in this materialistic world,” he adds.

Amar addresses the societal expectation that men should not express their emotions, contrasting it with women's ability to freely talk about their feelings. “I feel just like men need to have more sensitivity towards women, women also need to have the same for men. All men need is someone to hold them tight, hug them, and tell them that we love them and are proud of them, then only we will be able to have love in this world,” he says.
