Delhi dudes — mostly loud and aggressive or also large hearted? Bengali men — all fascinatingly creative, intellectual … and a bit of mama’s boys too? Are Goan men totally laid back or have they cracked it early in life? Some are fun, intelligent, conservative, protective, laid back, interested in cricket more than anything else, witty and some are chauvinistic, aggressive, mama’s boy, players and a lot more. And keeping in mind all the positive and negative aspects, there’s one thing that’s undeniable — all Indian men are culturally rooted. But what makes them tick? Model Indrani Dasgupta and actress Sugandha Garg are going to travel their way through 10 different cities in the country to find out what makes Indian men tick on a new show on Fox History & Traveller — What’s With Indian Men?. “This show is not a regular travel and luxury show. It is about discovering places probably one had heard of but never visited, along with talking to men from those places. It is about how the cities have shaped their men,” explains Indrani, who fell in love with the concept of the show the moment she heard about it. The two women kick-start their journey exploring Indian men from Delhi and moving on to places like Jaipur, Goa and Kochi. Ask them about their experiences during the travel, and Indrani says, “Every city was a unique experience. But, the men of Kochi completely charmed me. It was such a tourist-friendly place with men who are simple, intellectual and rooted to their culture.” To which Sugandha adds, “Indian men, surprisingly, have a great sense of humour! Every man is so influenced by his respective state — making their brand of humour very different. Thanks to all of them, we enjoyed a lot and laughed our way through the show.”Explaining the concept of the show, Sugandha reveals, “With every city, there is a cliché attached to their men. The concept of this show is to question the men about the cliches attached to them. For example, the Delhi dudes are considered to be more aggressive, while the Goan guys are said to have a chilled out attitude.” She further explains, “And, when we did question them about the cliches, they were very honest and had a very unique perspective.” Ask them what they think was common to all Indian men, and Indrani promptly replies, “Every Indian man still wants to be the provider of the family — he wants to take care of everything, no matter what.”On a concluding note, Sugandha adds, “Being a part of this show was like doing a doctorate on Indian men. We left all our inhibitions aside while interviewing the guys and were amazed with their candid confessions. Indian men are so diverse that such a show can only be made in our country and no where else. The show is not scripted and has captured true reactions of everyone — the Indian men and the two of us” A very light-hearted and witty show, What’s With Indian Men? goes on air from June 4, Saturday, at 10 pm on Fox History & Traveller.
