In this episode, Sanjay Gupta examines the quiet shift in modern relationships, where affection often becomes entangled with calculation, and emotional bonds sometimes resemble negotiations. Expectations, convenience, status, and gain — these subtle forces shape intimacy in ways rarely spoken aloud.
Through thoughtful reflection, Sanjay explores how love can lose its innocence when measured like a transaction, and how genuine connection survives only when freed from the currency of conditions. This episode becomes a meditation on what it means to love without bargaining, and to be valued beyond utility.
