Yashaswini Dayama and Aisha Ahmed

I think we just had a therapy session," laughs Yashaswini Dayama at the end of our hour-long conversation. The faces of Dice Media's Adulting, Dayama, 24, and Aisha Ahmed, 23, believe that the feel-good show — the second season of which dropped on YouTube recently — is as much fiction as an extension of their life as millennials. In a candid chat where no subject is off-limits, the two actors bare their heart out on their journey and how growing up has given them a reality check.

Here we come

If the opening season dealt with Ray (played by Dayama) and Nikhat's (played by Ahmed) first brush with responsibilities, the latest edition ups the ante as the two flatmates navigate tricky territory — from dealing with the judgment of dating several men to sexual harassment at work. "We have touched upon situations that everyone has faced at some point in their life. For instance, in one episode, we have initiated the conversation about [inappropriate] behaviour at work that makes [a woman] uncomfortable and the liberty to express the feeling of being trapped," says Ahmed, before adding, "The other topic that's close to my heart is when Nikhat realises that her parents are growing older, and the tables have turned."
