Hello and welcome to the Lounge podcast. We have a couple of really interesting interviews lined up this week along with a review of India’s newest arthouse film, The Great Indian Butterfly.
We speak to Mita Kapur, CEO, Siyahi, about organizing the upcoming Commonwealth Writers’ Prize in Delhi (7-12 April). Apart from the award function on 12 April, Siyahi has rounded up quite a packed schedule of panel discussions and workshops.
Curator and art critic Gitanjali Dang tells us how George Orwell inspired her art show, ‘By George’, that showcases eight artists and runs at the Alliance Franaise de Delhi from the 2-8 April.
We end the show with our film critic Sanjukta Sharma’s thoughts on the newest arthouse film to release in India, The Great Indian Butterfly.
