Bollywood superstar Randeep Hooda goes on to add, “What better occasion than with the onset of Father’s Day, to launch such a poignant initiative for the next generation of Dads! The #ShareTheLoad course launched by Akshara Centre and Ariel India can play a significant role in educating Gen Next on the importance of equality within the household. The stat that - 2 out of 3 children believe that laundry is a mother’s job, is a worrying one and I am glad that this movement aims at ending this cycle of social conditioning and prejudice! From the best stain removal in the first wash, to the World’s first #ShareTheLoad course, Ariel India continues to be the brand of progress!”

Power couple Mary Kom and Onler Kom also graced the event, as Ariel India’s Dads #ShareTheLoad film continues to build worldwide acclaim with over 50MM views since launch. “Onler and I are delighted to be here with Father’s  Day on the horizon and join Ariel India in this very important conversation”,  said the veteran athlete who went on to add, “we as a society need to prevent the social conditioning of gender roles from being passed down to the next generation. As someone who is fortunate to have a partner who believes in the value of #ShareTheLoad, day in and day out, I can testify to its importance. We need to ensure the next generation leaves with this message. This is why I am thrilled to support Akshara Centre and Ariel in launching the World’s first #ShareTheLoad course, to address gender biases for the next generation of Dads!” The ever insightful Onler Kom noted the importance of how the next generation is affected by the role play within the home, 2 out of every 3 children taking away the message that laundry and housework is a mother’s job, is of grave concern! We need to remove the stereotypes of gender roles from the education we provide the next generation both within and outside the household. I am glad that Ariel India has amplified this very important conversation both nationally and globally and thrilled to partner the Dads #ShareTheLoad movement. The launch of this course with a renowned national NGO like Akshara Centre will go a long way in spreading the importance of this message to the next generation!” Onler was also joined on stage by 16 Dads who took the pledge to #ShareTheLoad with Ariel Matic, because with a detergent like Ariel Matic anyone can do the laundry and get great stain removal results.
