  • Akash Mehta, one of India's finest and youngest comedians tells us why it's time for India to start talking about sex and stop treating it as a taboo topic of conversation. By inducing a lighter atmosphere through his humor, Akash Mehta makes it okay for the Indian masses to speak about a rather organic process with close to no discomfort at all.
    Aakash Mehta is a singer-songwriter, scriptwriter, producer and stand-up comedian. And he does all this without being a star kid. It helps that he has issues and that he likes dealing with them on stage. A true student of the art, Aakash now relishes every mishap, misfortune and misadventure so that he can talk about it on stage.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    This issue is true. People here in India hardly say the word sex. They feel that it will ruin their image or people will judge them.

      Dipesh Subba And people like you are the true example of "the ruiners".
      Definition - Ruiners are a community of people who ruin the beauty or the real/actual feel of anything.

    Most of India's youth is way past the talking barrier buddy. The challenge is to divert their attention to other relevant things in life. Sex is not a big deal. Older genetation blew it out of proportion by suppression and we are blowing it out of proportion by too much action. Where's the balance?
