Cosmopolitan India - October 2018

In dieser Ausgabe

Highlights of the Cosmopolitan October 2018 issue:- This year, Cosmo India turns 22, and their anniversary celebrations include a special focus on sisterhood. “At Cosmopolitan India, we believe—strongly, firmly, wholeheartedly—that women should support and promote other women,” says Cosmo India Editor, Nandini Bhalla. “It’s time to change the narrative that women are each other’s worst enemies; because when women join hands to become allies, they can influence change and empower each other for a better future.” The Cosmo India 22nd Anniversary issue features a long list of formidable women, who speak about and encourage the spirit (and power) of sisterhood. Taking the lead are three covergirls: global icon Priyanka Chopra, poet and best-selling author Rupi Kaur, and YouTube superstar Lilly Singh. In her interview, Priyanka Chopra talks about how she accomplished her goals, despite being told by some that she wouldn’t. Author Rupi Kaur writes an open letter to young women who grapple with insecurities, and don’t think they’re pretty enough. In her letter, Rupi discusses her own struggles with the idea of what’s ‘beautiful’, while growing up. YouTube Lilly Singh, in her open letter, urges women to not let the fear of failure get in the way of their dreams. There’s more in this issue, including a very special feature with 31 inspiring women from different walks of life, who echo the same sentiment—that women supporting women is the only way forward. Voices and names include Shobhaa De, Anupama Chopra, Ira Dubey, Adwaita Nayar, Mallika Dua, Shikha Talsania, and more, who share their stories and experiences to help highlight how by empowering women, we can empower the entire community. Plus, what drag queens can teach us about feminism, why every woman needs a ‘work wife’, the biggest fashion and beauty trends of the moment, and much more. PS: the 22nd Anniversary issue also comes with a bonus Cosmo Man issue, starring the latest toast of Bollywood, Ishaan Khatter.
