The toxic patriarchal notion of masculinity in India has a wide-ranging negative impact on lives of both men and women. Due to this they are unable to express themselves and are burdened with unrealistic standards. The pressure to be bread-winner and strong and independent makes them even more vulnerable. Men struggle with mental health issues and have trouble seeking help as their mental health is not paid attention to. The women also suffer significantly due to these standards and lack faith in men, leading to infuriation towards them.
