Want to see the video version of this podcast? Please visit Youtube here: https://youtu.be/d_dWCSRBQzE Sujata Day advises against putting a time limit on becoming a working professional in the film industry. She believes that art shouldn't be rushed and that setting arbitrary deadlines can hinder success. Instead, she suggests embracing the journey, finding joy in the pursuit of dreams, and being open to new opportunities. Sujata shares her own experience of initially pursuing engineering as a backup plan before ultimately following her passion for acting. She emphasizes the importance of continuous growth, facing rejection, and staying motivated. Sujata also expresses the positive shift in the industry, where artists support and inspire each other, creating their own work instead of waiting to be picked. She finds fulfillment in her art and feels fortunate to live her dream every day, even during challenging times. Sujata took advantage of the pandemic to immerse herself in films, TV shows, and international cinema, learning and gathering inspiration. During this period, she remained productive by writing multiple scripts and pitches for future projects.

Sujata and Ritesh speak about their relationship with South Asian identity and how it has shaped their respective paths as storytellers who consistently strive to “create their own table.” We get to learn more about their stories as South Asian artists, and their coming up as professional actors in Hollywood. Equal parts inspiring and insightful, Sujata and Ritesh divulge what can only be interpreted as a responsible, modern take on South Asian representation in creative spaces.

This week we reviewed the movie Sardar Udham Singh which is streaming on Prime. Most patriotic movies are not made about freedom fighters as people, but freedom fighters as icons – generalizing them and condensing the complexities of their reasons and characters into neat marketable products for a multiplex audience. Sardar Udham Singh is a masterpiece that presents no such broad strokes.Watch the impeccable #VickyKausal ace this role. Special mention for #AmolParashar as Bhagat Singh. It's a classic.Shriya watched Lawyer Vishvanath. Viswanath is a lawyer who has a loving family comprising his wife Kamala and his loving 8-year-old daughter Akshara. He is a man of values and lives with principles. Viswanath spends considerable time with his family to ensure he gives proper love and affection. On his daughter's birthday, he takes his family for an evening outing but on the way back a tragedy strikes Viswanath and his family.  Watch this remake on Prime.Finally, we review @sonyliv's #Tabbar.Ajitpal Singh's Tabbar is a lesson on celluloid of how to impact your audiences with pure emotion.Created and written by Harman Wadala, and co-written by Sandeep Jain, Tabbar deploys very credible theatre art to bring his characters to life.  The logical, calculative Omkar (Pavan Raj Malhotra) and the emotional mother Sargun (Supriya Pathak Kapur), parents to Teji (Sahil Mehta), and the civil services aspirant Happy (Gagan Arora) are caught in a sudden situation inadvertently where they get embroiled in the killing of the drug peddling brother of a local businessman-politician (Ranvir Shorey) in their home. The tracks of drugs in Punjab, scams are all sub-threads to the main story which is about how the family deals with the aftermath of this murder. This show is a classic.All this and Bonus - our chat with #MaheshBhupati about his docudrama #BreakPoint which streams on Zee5And the quintessential Sujata Day about her movie #DefinitonPlease which also won a best actor mention at the #NewYorkSouthAsianFilmFestival.Listen in at podcast.desis.live and all other places where you get your pod

Sujata is a performer, writer, and director for TV & Film.

Those include Cece in The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl or Sarah in HBO's Insecure. More recently, she acted, wrote, and directed in her first independent full-length feature film, Definition Please. The movie, which has been touring the film festival circuit, discusses mental health and family relationships in the context of a Bengali family. And the protagonist is a washed up Spelling Bee champion… a story which may hit painfully close for those of us in the diaspora with a dusty third grade trophy somewhere in the house. In this episode, Sujata talked about why she got an engineering degree despite knowing that she would be an actress from a young age, in addition to the hilarious stories behind her transition from consultant to actress. She shared the moment that got her moving on her dream project, and how she convinced actors that have been in Scrubs, The Jungle Book, and other major productions to take a chance on her independent film. Lastly, she talked about making a South Asian film where an identity crisis was not the central conflict and how she avoided stereotyping while still crafting a relatable story in Definition Please.

We talk about what kind of content inspired us all growing up to do what we do now, and how the small pieces of South Asian focused content that see the light of day have to carry the unfair burden of representing all of us. There's space for all of us in this industry, so when are we going to see the South Asian Barry Jenkins, Ava DuVernay, Christopher Nolan? We talk about the troubles of playing an Indian character in America, and how it would be difficult to get cast if you "didn't look Indian enough," and yet struggled to get cast in anything mainstream. However, the tide is definitely turning, and we explore what role streaming platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hulu have played.

My guest today is Sujata Day. Sujata’s first feature film, Definition Please, spoke right to my heart. I have bipolar disorder, and I am so glad that it is being seen in a fuller scope. In popular films, we see the extreme side of bipolar disorder. In Sujata's film, the story of Monica and her family shows the much more nuanced side of this mental illness. Sujata’s film is down-to-earth, elegant, joyous and poignant all at the same time.

“[Leti in ‘Lovecraft Country’] is such an excellent example of society equating a woman’s sexual confidence with her sexual experience and labeling women who take ownership over their bodies as easy or slutty.” -Meg McCarthy This week, we explore the meaning and the myth of virginity in film and television as it relates to women coming of age. Meg draws upon the work of the groundbreaking expert on adolescent sexuality, Peggy Orenstein. “I'd rather people think of sex more horizontally [ …] as a way to explore intimacy and pleasure than as this misguided vertical race to a goal,” writes Orenstein in her book, Girls & Sex: Navigating the Complicated New Landscape. In other words: it’s “first times” (plural) and there’s no cookie cutter experience that applies to everyone.  Then we talk to the super talented actor/writer/director Sujata Day (Misadventures of an Awkward Black Girl, Insecure) about her excellent feature directorial debut Definition Please. It was an official selection at the 2020 Bentonville Film Festival in the Feature Narrative Competition and has been having a great run on the (virtual) film festival circuit ever since its August 2020 premiere. We also uncover the real-life story of the shocking birds and the bees “talk” Day received from her mother as a teen. Check out Beandrea’s review of Definition Please for The Hollywood Reporter. Movies & Television Little Darlings This 1980s classic set the tone for a host of other movies like it to come in future decades about how adolescent girls define virginity. For Angel (Kristy McNichol) and Ferris (Tatum O’Neal) it’s a competition, a really big deal, and not what either girl thinks it will be. I Believe in Unicorns The Film Fatales Founder and writer/director Leah Meyerhoff debuted her film I Love Unicorns at the Tribeca Film Festival. Meyerhoff uses a blend of magical realism and stop-motion animation to take us inside the imaginative world of Davina (Natalia Dyer - a previous podcast guest from Episode 1!) as she begins a tumultuous relationship with an older guy. Here, we get to see a darker side of what it means to have sex with a man for the first time as a young woman whose inner world is quite different than the world around her. Lady Bird We discuss how Greta Gerwig’s instant classic pushes the boundaries of the stories we’re used to seeing about the first sexual experiences of teen girls. Of course, that includes a brief chat about Timothée Chalamet as well.  Farah Goes Bang With the fraught 2020 election now in the rearview, it’s refreshing to watch this “on the road” movie about three friends who spend the summer campaigning for John Kerry’s 2004 presidential campaign. Co-writer/director Meera Menon adds a funny, moving, and much-needed spin on the genre of virginity movies by exploring what it means to make a conscious choice when it comes to sex. Blockers Director Kay Cannon’s teen sex comedy could be seen as Little Darlings 2.0, as it’s another pact that three friends make to have sex on their prom night. The twist here is that their parents find out about it and try to thwart their plans. We discuss what reviews of the film got wrong (we’re looking at you LA Times) and celebrate the queer storyline of one of the main characters. Normal People (S1, Episode 2) With full-frontal nudity and unabashed passion, Normal People is not a typical story about teenagers coming of age and falling in love. We take a closer look at the second episode of the series and ask about how much is too much when it comes to believability in sex scenes and why it made us appreciate romance novels more.  Lovecraft Country (S1, Episodes 3 & 6) Lovecraft Country from creator and showrunner Misha Greene is our absolute jam! We chat about the episodes “Holy Ghost”  and “Meet Me in Daegu” and just how good this show is at crafting sex scenes that help us better understand the characters and make the show such a thrill to watch. We also have a short callback to CherryPop Episode 4 with HBOs intimacy coordinator Alicia Rodis, who worked with the actors and crew on the “Meet Me in Daegu” episode. Credits CherryPop is presented by CherryPicks. Our hosts are Beandrea July (Twitter @beandreadotcom) and Meg McCarthy (IG megjomccarthy). The show is recorded, produced and mixed by Beandrea July.

Sujata Day (The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl, Insecure) is here with us for episode 27 and brings with her no shortage of knowledge and inspiration. Fresh from directing her first feature (Definition Please), Day explains to us the perks of writing for, directing, and finding a way to fund and raise money for her own projects. She's had several doors open from the film festival circuit, Sundance in particular, now serving as a Sundance Collab advisor. Showcasing more than a few perks that come along with having her own skin in the game as a filmmaker, she makes it a point to banish any belief in possible missteps. She's had several projects lead her in directions she never saw coming and is now an HBO visionary ambassador for Asian American filmmakers. You can even find her on the stage as part of the Asian AF improv group at UCB in her spare time. She may not look Indian enough to book Indian roles according to Hollywood's standard (a ridiculous notion), but she's certainly not letting that deter her in any way from utilizing her voice and effecting change in a lasting way.
