Arundhati Nag, Nandita Das and V Ravichandar join host Pavan Srinath for a conversation on the future of arts and culture. They discuss how artists from all walks of Indian society are managing in these challenging times, and what the future might hold for artists, art spaces, philanthropy and funding, for what many may see as a low priority. Arundhati Nag is an celebrated film and theatre actor, a Padma Shree and a Sangeet Natak Akademi Award recipient, and the founder of Ranga Shankara in Bangalore. Nandita Das is an actor, director and social advocate, a two-time jury member at the Cannes Film Festival, a recipient of the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters) by the French Government, and the first Indian to be inducted into the International Hall of Fame of the International Women's Forum in Washington, DC.
