Pee Safe launches podcast ‘Unmute with Pee Safe’ to help women own their voice
Pee Safe reintroduces its podcast series with conversations that inspire confidence, authenticity, and honest dialogue.
MUMBAI: Pee Safe is proud to re-launch its podcast series, Pee Room Conversations, with a fresh perspective “Unmute with Pee Safe.” The series aims to create a safe space for women to openly discuss the challenges they face in daily life. By encouraging honest and authentic conversations, the podcast highlights how societal pressures, particularly the expectation to always be “likeable,” influence women’s decisions and self-expression.
The first episode of Season 4, titled Episode 1 – The Pressure to Be Likeable, explores how women often adjust their tone, opinions, and aspirations to fit societal expectations at work, in personal life, and beyond. This constant self-adjustment can leave women feeling drained and restricted. The series introduces the idea of “unmuting” as a powerful act, making a conscious choice to express oneself fully and confidently.
Speaking about the launch, Pee Safe founder Vikas Bagaria said, “Empowerment begins with honest conversations. Through ‘Unmute,’ we aim to create a space where women can speak freely without the burden of constantly limiting themselves. This series celebrates women owning their voice with confidence and authenticity.”
The episode features insights from experts including Ankita, director and category head for fem care and grooming at Blinkit; Aarushi Lohani, co-founder of Find Your Fit; Garima, dentist and influencer; Tanya Mehra, child nutritionist and mom blogger; and Srishti Jain, co-founder of Feeding India. They share experiences on how the pressure to be likeable impacts careers, decision-making, and life, while offering strategies to regain authenticity and self-confidence.
With “Unmute with Pee Safe,” the brand continues to demonstrate its commitment to empowering women beyond its products, inspiring them to be more confident and embrace positive change. Pee Safe emphasizes that true empowerment begins when women choose to unmute themselves.

HP launches Smart Champs learning game show with JioStar for students
Sanya Malhotra hosts quiz series blending fun, learning and prizes
NEW DELHI: HP India has teamed up with JioStar to launch HP Smart Champs, a new learning-based game show designed to make education engaging for school students across the country.
Hosted by Sanya Malhotra, the 10-episode series brings together students from Grades 5 to 9, who compete in teams through quiz and puzzle-based challenges that test knowledge, logic and teamwork. The show will begin streaming on JioHotstar from April 11 and will premiere on Nick on April 18, with weekend episodes airing at 7 PM.
Powered by HP Smart Tank printers, the format integrates print-based learning into the gameplay, using worksheets, clues and visual problem-solving tools to encourage hands-on participation. The idea is to move students beyond rote memorisation and towards more applied, curiosity-led learning.
The competition promises high stakes, with winners set to receive a cash prize of Rs 10 lakh, while runners-up will take home Rs 5 lakh. Additional rewards include HP AI laptops, Smart Tank printers and accessories, while the winning school will be awarded an HP Smart Tech Lab.
Speaking about the initiative, HP India managing director Ipsita Dasgupta said, “At HP, we believe nurturing India’s youth is key to the country’s progress, and technology plays a foundational role in enabling this. With HP Smart Champs, we wanted to create something beyond traditional learning, a fun-filled platform where curiosity, creativity and critical thinking take centre stage.”
On the show’s reach, JioStar head entertainment sales Mahesh Shetty said, “HP Smart Champs reflects how children today learn through exploration and experience. With Nick and JioHotstar, we are creating a multi-screen approach that is both engaging and meaningful.”
Highlighting the role of print, HP India senior director print Satish Kumar said, “The show brings print-based learning to life in an engaging format, helping students develop deeper understanding through hands-on experiences.”
The journey to the finale began with participation from over 1,000 schools across 26 cities, narrowing down to 34 finalists who will compete in a studio showdown in Mumbai.
With its blend of entertainment, education and technology, HP Smart Champs is positioning itself as more than just a quiz show. It is a nationwide push to make learning interactive, accessible and, above all, a lot more fun.
