It merges technological presence with emotional storytelling, creating narratives that reflect the emotional complexity technology introduces into daily life.

For Neeraj Udhwani and Ishita Moitra, the writers of Netflix’s new series Single Papa, the idea for the show came during a trip to Goa at the airport. “We saw this visual of a macho guy holding a baby in his arms, and he was trying to find a diaper station.” While women’s restrooms usually have diaper-changing facilities, men’s restrooms often do not. Some public institutions, like airports, offer family rooms where either parent can feed or change a baby’s diaper. But this one incident got the writers thinking about how, institutionally, raising and nursing a baby is still considered a woman’s responsibility rather than a man’s. Neeraj and Ishita on giving a humourous touch to Single Papa While Neeraj and Ishita, who are also a married couple, had a structural idea for the story, not be...
