Welcome to Akalpur
Welcome to Akalpur is a fantastic hindi adaptation of 'Fools', directed by the very famous, Mr Neil Simon. Interesting fact, Neil Simon happened to put this play together during the course of his divorce. He didn’t expect it to do very well. Somewhere inside he probably didn’t want it to do too well either since his profits from the play were supposed to go to his wife, as a legal settlement.
We interviewed Nikhil Chaudhary, a growing director of theater plays, and asked him multiple questions that relate to being an actor and director of theater plays, managing a full-time job and the advantages to using creativity as a key medium of education, today and for our future generations. Truly enjoyed the session with Nikhil and his direction.

Menstruation: The art of the body to recreate
28:56||Season 2, Ep. 6Menstrual art has been around since the 1970s. Sometimes also called Menstrala, a term and form of art coined by an artist by the name Vanessa Tiegs. An art form used to create awareness, challenge restrictions, and restructure discussions around it. Women are unable to come out and say, “I’m in pain today, can you help me?

The Happiness Trail with Mr Ramesh Venkateswaran
37:49||Season 2, Ep. 1Even with all the awareness created around mental health, we still hesitate to use those words. I believe that more individuals who do this for the purpose itself and not just for CSR agendas, will be the strongest route to this change. This episode is with Mr Ramesh Venkateswaran, chairman and volunteer at Vishwas, a society for mental health. His book The Happiness Trail, is a simple and connectable read. The idea behind self-actualization has been clearly established and i'm hoping more people are able to read through.
