Towards a gender progressive society

Towards a gender progressive society

In this week's episode, Julia is joined by Nandita as she shares what Directing Films has taught her about leading. As a director, she tells us that one must have the the ability to have your feet planted firmly on on the ground, working with teams across departments while also being able to carry the vision of the bigger picture simultaneously. While leading large teams it is important to be technically sound, but also know how to manage people and their emotions. How do you create a democratic atmosphere, where all voices are heard and yet cultivate the confidence and strength to be able to take the final call? Leading can often be a lonely pursuit, and learning to be comfortable with the voices in your head will allow you to learn when to let go and when to stick to what you firmly believe. This episode is a peak into how to lead large and diverse teams to bring out the full potential of a creative collaborative task or project.About the Guest: Nandita Das is a critically acclaimed Actor, Director Writer and Activist from India.

In this episode of Do I Like It, we review Zwigato, and no, this is not a new food delivery app; instead a portrayal of the life of a gig worker directed by Nandita Das. Das does an excellent job by using the medium of a food delivery worker to display multiple disparities and prejudices in society regarding gender, caste, and income. At the same time, it's refreshing to see Kapil Sharma, a celebrated Indian comic, take on the serious role of a father struggling to make ends meet. Overall, the film moves you and reminds you of the trials and tribulations in the life of a delivery driver, who is more than often overlooked as a rightful member of our society. Tune in for the full review!

Travis Good and Mike Belitsky of The Sadies talk about releasing the band's first album since the death of singer-guitarist Dallas Good. Director and actor Nandita Das discuses her latest film, Zwigato, and what inspired her to turn her lens on India's gig economy and the lives of food app delivery drivers. Our screen panellists Teri Hart and Kathleen Newman-Bremang fill us in on the highs and lows of this year's Emmy Awards. Broadcaster and comedian Steven Bull talks about his new multimedia documentary experience, The Forgotten Festival, which tells the story of the greatest concert you've never heard of.

Film and television Though he enjoys writing, Salman Rushdie says that he would have become an actor if his writing career had not been successful. Even from early childhood, he dreamed of appearing in Hollywood movies (which he later realised in his frequent cameo appearances). Rushdie includes fictional television and movie characters in some of his writings. He had a cameo appearance in the film Bridget Jones's Diary based on the book of the same name, which is itself full of literary in-jokes. On 12 May 2006, Rushdie was a guest host on The Charlie Rose Show, where he interviewed Indo-Canadian filmmaker Deepa Mehta, whose 2005 film, Water, faced violent protests. He appears in the role of Helen Hunt's obstetrician-gynecologist in the film adaptation (Hunt's directorial debut) of Elinor Lipman's novel Then She Found Me. In September 2008, and again in March 2009, he appeared as a panellist on the HBO program Real Time with Bill Maher. Rushdie has said that he was approached for a cameo in Talladega Nights: "They had this idea, just one shot in which three very, very unlikely people were seen as NASCAR drivers. And I think they approached Julian Schnabel, Lou Reed, and me. We were all supposed to be wearing the uniforms and the helmet, walking in slow motion with the heat haze." In the end their schedules didn't allow for it. In 2009, Rushdie signed a petition in support of film director Roman Polanski, calling for his release after Polanski was arrested in Switzerland in relation to his 1977 charge for drugging and raping a 13-year-old girl. Rushdie collaborated on the screenplay for the cinematic adaptation of his novel Midnight's Children with director Deepa Mehta. The film was also called Midnight's Children. Seema Biswas, Shabana Azmi, Nandita Das, and Irrfan Khan participated in the film. Production began in September 2010; the film was released in 2012. Rushdie announced in June 2011 that he had written the first draft of a script for a new television series for the US cable network Showtime, a project on which he will also serve as an executive producer. The new series, to be called The Next People, will be, according to Rushdie, "a sort of paranoid science-fiction series, people disappearing and being replaced by other people." The idea of a television series was suggested by his US agents, said Rushdie, who felt that television would allow him more creative control than feature film. The Next People is being made by the British film production company Working Title, the firm behind such projects as Four Weddings and a Funeral and Shaun of the Dead. In 2017, Rushdie appeared as himself in Episode 3 of Season 9 of Curb Your Enthusiasm, sharing scenes with Larry David to offer advice on how Larry should deal with the fatwa that has been ordered against him. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salman_Rushdie

Our guest today is Pratap Raju, founding partner of Climate Collective, an organisation that is building a platform to accelerate climate tech startups in India, by catalysing stronger linkages between the startups and large corporate buyers and users of their solutions. He is also the founding partner of a VC fund, Climate Seeds Fund, providing seed-stage funding to climate startups. Climate Collective also has a dedicated programme to encourage women entrepreneurs in climate tech. Pratap grew up in the US, and his early career was as a trader, economist and banker, including a brief stint at JP Morgan where he was a Power and Gas M&A Analyst. He came back to India to become an entrepreneur and tried his hand at various things, including starting a film and TV commercials company, where he co-wrote the story and dialogues for a Bollywood comedy, ‘Bas Yun Hi,' starring actress Nandita Das. The birth of his children got him thinking about the world that the next generations would inherit and that led him to zero in on climate change, and he started Climate Collective in 2016.

Today's Lost and Found is Shubho Mahurat, directed by Rituparno Ghosh. With Rakhee as the protagonist, the film was Ghosh's personal hat-tip to the innumerable Mrs Marples who reside in every household, unacknowledged, or even uncelebrated. Ghosh paints the character of Ranga pishi, played by Rakhee, with all the necessary quirks of a sharp detective mind. With straight-faced humour and whip-sharp instincts, Ranga pishi is always a step ahead of her miscreant. Pitted against Rakhee's sedate smarts is Sharmila Tagore's seamless flamboyance as a once-relevant Tollywood actress. Ghosh peppered the narrative with frequent cliff-hangers and prompt murders, all along focusing on his female characters' narrative arcs. Ghosh uses Nandita Das' Mallika Sen, the journalist who investigates the mysterious goings-on, as his audience's proxy, thus ensuring that viewers aren't alienated through the runtime of the film.Despite being a murder mystery, Shubho Mahurat spotlit the lives of its multiple women. While Ghosh uses Ranga pishi to enumerate the wonders of homemakers and their adept deduction skills, Padmini Chowdhury, played by Tagore, becomes his muse to an outer, glamorous world of showbiz. As the film progresses, these parallel narratives led by these opposing personalities gain momentum until the rousing climax, where they meet for the first time. Shubho Mahurat is a heady concoction of revenge, love, forgiveness and brittle relationships. So if you're up for a gripping story that also tugs at your heartstrings, you should definitely watch this one. If you haven't watched this flick yet then do so on Amazon Prime Video and HoichoiWell that's some info about the lesser-known film Shubho Mahurat on OTTplay Lost and Found, I shall be back again with another critically acclaimed film soon. This is your host Nikhil signing out for now.

Why is the fate of content consumption of an entire nation put in the hands of a few? Joining our hosts Nishtha and Sukanya to go over all this and much more is the brilliant actor and filmmaker - Nandita Das! Someone whose journey with censorship has been a long and tedious one. Tune in to this episode as we talk about freedom of expression, the need for art to be devoid of censorship, empathy and vulnerability in feminism - and much much more!

On acting decisions, he says he can never see himself play the regular 'shaadi-vyah’ roles and defends certain commercial choices like Munna Michael. This year Siddiqui will be seen playing Saadat Hasan Manto in Nandita Das’s film as well Netflix’s first Indian series Sacred Games. He’s currently preparing to play Balasaheb Thackeray in a biopic.

Nandita Das and David Peck talk about her new film Manto, dignity and context, subversive push back, normalized equality, deep convictions, having a social conscience and activism and why you need to be yourself, because everyone else is already taken. Trailer Synopsis Manto begins in an optimistic India waiting to be free from British colonial rule. No one has any idea of the upheaval the Partition of India and Pakistan will soon bring. Riots between Hindu and Muslim pit neighbour against neighbour, and strain even the deepest friendship. During this period, Manto - one of history’s greatest short story writers - is torn between his beloved Bombay, and moving to Pakistan. Increasingly, his writings bear shocking witness to a society caught up in communal violence in which people become, for no reason at all, predators or prey. Meanwhile, Manto’s own flawed humanity drives him to shine a light on the dark underbelly of society that so many chose to ignore. As Manto fights to clear himself from charges of obscenity and maintain his freedom, his increasing alcoholism and anguish takes a toll on his family and leads him to a downward spiral. Through all of this, he continues to write, his works mirroring the harsh realities of the time as he continues to pen the truth, for which he pays the ultimate price. This is the tale of two emerging nations, two faltering cities and one man who tries to make sense of it all. Biography Nandita Das has acted in more than 40 feature films in 10 different languages.
