"I think sometimes women just need to be unburdened from making decisions. - Mira Rajput Kapoor"

Mumbai, May 6

Entrepreneur and Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor's wife Mira Rajput Kapoor recently opened up about how women often need to be 'unburdened' from the constant need for decision-making, to truly unwind and reconnect with themselves.

Mira shared a heartfelt video on her social media account, where she reflected on the sheer joy and emotional comfort of spending time at her parents' home or spending time with children and how it helps unwind mentally.

"It's been a while since I have done a 'Mira Mira on the wall'. I just got back from my mom's house and I shared with you guys how I was feeling while I was there. Nothing really feels quite like it," Mira said in the video.

Talking further about the emotional release she experienced, she added, "I think sometimes women just need to be unburdened from making decisions. No one's asking you what's on the menu, which car is going where, what are you doing, what time is the meeting, or can you can approve this? I think sometimes you just need to be relieved of making decisions. That is such an unclogging of the mind."

She added, "We have to make so many decisions every single day. More than decisions, we need to make choices. And when you're freed from making a choice, that is when you feel a sense of release and ease. That is why somewhere you feel so rejuvenated, relaxed and strangely powered to take on whatever else is coming your way."

Mira further urged women to at times disconnect from constant responsibilities and simply live in the moment. "If you need to take that break, switch off your phone, don't check emails and don't pander to that desire to see what is going on and what you need to do. You will see that there is a sense of letting go and actually experiencing everything," she shared.

"Just experiencing your kids playing in the park, lying down beside your parents doing nothing at all, going for a walk with your parents or laughing about something ridiculous, it helps you feel every moment so viscerally and deeply. So this is your reminder to find a place, a situation or a person who relieves you of making decisions and choices. Check in with yourself. And don't ask yourself any questions. Just be," Mira concluded.

The entrepreneur had earlier taken to her social media account to talk about the perks for a married woman to be at her Maayka aka maternal house.

Her video had gone viral over social media with many women resonating with her.

I think this applies to everyone, not just women. Men also carry the burden of decisions, especially in Indian families where we're expected to be the providers. But she's right about the maayka factor - there's something magical about being a child again at your parents' home.

Finally someone said it! Society expects women to be superhumans - managing career, home, kids, and still smiling. Taking a break isn't laziness, it's self-preservation. Love how she normalizes needing to disconnect. šŸ’Æ

While I appreciate the sentiment, I think we need to be careful not to generalize. Many women thrive on making decisions and leading. But yes, everyone needs a mental break sometimes. The maayka part is very relatable for us Indians though - nothing beats that comfort!

As a single mom in Delhi, this hits home. The mental load is insane - from school fees to what's for dinner to office presentations. Visiting my parents in Patna is the only time I can truly switch off. Mira, you get it! 😌

I think this is a beautiful reminder for everyone, not just women. The rat race in metros like Mumbai and Bangalore leaves no room for stillness. We all need a place where we can just 'be' without the pressure of constant choices. Good on her for sharing this! šŸ‘
