Raj Nayak

Raj Nayak, CEO, Colors said, “At Colors, 65 per cent of our employee base comprises women, and they form the backbone of the organisation, furthering our business goals. Through our shows like Udann, Shakti and Devanshi among many others, we have always tried to put the quintessential Indian woman and her many strengths in the spotlight to transform them into effective influencers. We believe that in today's day and age, it is critical to be a driver of change, and a digital platform like SheThePeople.TV is the perfect platform for us to take this initiative further. We look forward to a nation of absolute equality and hope to contribute positively towards achieving this.”

Shaili Chopra

Shaili Chopra, Founder of SheThePeople.TV said it was an important shift to note that large platforms with tremendous viewership were sensitizing themselves to championing women and contributing to the idea of gender equality. “Entertainment plays the biggest role in influencing minds in our country and to have Colors take a lead in the effort to transform projection of women on screens is a step in the right direction. We at SheThePeople, as India's largest digital media platform for women stories believe, we are at the cusp of some real change.”
