  • Devdutt on Ramayana, Mahabharata, Consent, and Mythology | Bani Anand | After Hours with AAE S2

    Join us for this insightful episode of After Hours with All About Eve as Bani welcomes renowned mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik, embarking on a profound exploration of Indian mythology, ethics, and the intricate web of societal constructs.
    Devdutt's knowledge shines as he skilfully explores mythology, linking ancient tales with fundamental ideas like fairness, justice, and the divine. With clear and deep explanations, he shows how these stories provide insight into human nature, shaping how we see the world and ourselves.
    Bani then asks Devdutt about the belief in reincarnation and its origins. Devdutt explains that reincarnation, much like God or the devil, is a shorthand to make sense of life's unpredictable and uncontrollable aspects. He illustrates how these constructs help explain disparities in life - such as wealth or disabilities, through the lens of karma and rebirth.
    The conversation then shifts to the concept of Sati. Devdutt unpacks its three distinct meanings: Sati as a goddess, Sati as a historical practice, and Sati as a mythological concept. He shares fascinating insights into the story of Sati and Savitri, highlighting the difference between the cultural narrative of a 'faithful wife' and the original story of a heroic woman who defies death to save her husband.
    As the conversation progresses, Devdutt delves into the depiction of women in Indian epics. This leads to a fascinating comparison between Sita and Draupadi. Devdutt contrasts their approaches and outcomes, noting that Sita ensures her children inherit the kingdom, while Draupadi's pursuit of revenge results in personal loss.
    Bani questions the cultural obsession with fidelity and the unequal application of chastity norms. Devdutt explains that these constructs are rooted in ancient property and mercantile civilisations, distinguishing between matriarchy and matrilocality, and tracing marriage origins back to the Mahabharata, which depicts a time before marriage existed. He notes the reluctance to keep the Mahabharata at home stems from its unsettling knowledge, advocating for embracing such knowledge to find life's solutions.
    One of the standout themes in this episode is consent, as highlighted in the Ramayana. Devdutt explains how ancient texts address mutual respect and agency, concepts often misunderstood in modern interpretations.
    The conversation then touches upon the differences in monogamy and polygamy across cultures, noting how these societal constructs are interpreted in various mythologies, from Greek to Middle Eastern. Devdutt explores the behaviour of gods like Ram and Krishna within their familial contexts, emphasising that their actions are influenced by their roles and backgrounds.
    As the interview winds down, Bani asks Devdutt how he unwinds after a busy day. Devdutt reveals that he finds immense joy in writing, describing it as therapeutic and rewarding.

  • Daler Mehndi on His Journey, Struggles and Success | Bani Anand | AfterHours with All About Eve

    In this captivating episode of AfterHours, Bani sits down with the legendary Daler Mehndi for an in-depth and heartfelt interview. Bani kicks off the conversation by sharing a personal anecdote about the first time she saw Daler perform in Delhi, expressing how his vibrant green emerald kurta inspired her to have one made for herself.
    Daler Mehndi reflects on the incredible success he’s achieved by God’s grace. The discussion takes a nostalgic turn as Bani asks the burning question we’ve all had: why the name “Daler”? Daler shares an intriguing story from his parents’ experience watching a film starring Prem Nath, whose character’s name was Daler. Inspired by the character’s bravery and sacrifice, his mother decided to name him Daler.
    The conversation then delves into Daler’s unexpected fear of ghosts, with him recounting various eerie encounters that initially terrified him but eventually became more manageable.

    Daler reminisces about the breakthrough success of “Bolo Ta Ra Ra” and his Bollywood debut with Amitabh Bachchan in “Na Na Na Re,” a dream come true for him.
    The interview touches on lighter moments, including Daler’s amusing experiences singing in Tamil and Telugu, and the joy he found in the compliment from a director about his accent. He also shares the emotional journey of singing his first Shabad, taught by his father, and the love he received for it.
    The conversation turns serious as Daler discusses the human trafficking case filed against him in 2003. He opens up about the immense personal and professional toll it took, the baseless accusations, and the long struggle to clear his name, all while continuing his good deeds.
    Despite the hardships, Daler remains optimistic about his future. He shares his excitement about being cast in “Welcome 3” and how his name and identity, including his turban, remain intact in the film. He fondly recalls the supportive atmosphere on set with stars like Paresh Rawal, Johnny Lever, Rajpal Yadav, and Akshay Kumar.
    Bani enquires about the recurring breakup themes in his lyrics, to which Daler explains that they reflect the experiences of those around him rather than his own. He also recounts the spontaneous creation of “Kudiyan Sehar Diyan” during a performance.
    The interview reveals Vicky Kaushal’s fanboy admiration for Daler and his appreciation for Diljit Dosanjh. Daler expresses his respect for Diljit and recounts a memorable encounter where he saw Diljit in a hotel but unfortunately didn’t get the chance to speak with him.
    As the interview wraps up, Bani poses the podcast’s staple question: what does Daler do to unwind AfterHours? To everyone’s surprise, he enjoys scrolling through Instagram, finding humour in the randomness of its content.
    Finally, Daler entertains us with impromptu songs inspired by various situations Bani presents, showcasing his musical genius.

  • Johnny Lever As A Dad & Boss, And Mastering Mimicry | Jamie Lever | Bani Anand | AfterHours

    Join us for a fun episode of "AfterHours with All About Eve," hosted by Bani Anand and featuring the incredibly talented Jamie Lever.
    Bani kicks off the conversation by highlighting a shared experience - both Jamie and Bani are nepo kids. This sets the stage for an intimate discussion about family, fame, and the pressures that come with a famous surname. Jamie opens up about the struggles of missing out on father-daughter time due to Johnny Lever's busy schedule.
    Jamie reveals what it's like to work with her father in the "Johnny Lever Live" crew, where she performs comedy. Having done 250 shows together worldwide, she talks about the challenges and rewards of performing alongside a perfectionist.
    The discussion then shifts to the harshness of social media, with Jamie sharing how people often comment negatively without understanding the hard work behind the scenes. She discusses how she deals with criticism and stays positive.
    Jamie discusses the burden of carrying her father's legacy, initially distancing herself from the "Lever" name and going by Jamie J. She shares how producers urged her to use the surname Lever when she debuted, and how her father and uncle ensured she received good training in Hindi, Urdu, Hindustani classical music, and dance. These skills have proven invaluable in her career. Jamie talks about discovering her mimicry talent, narrating childhood incidents where she mimicked teachers, leading her father to recognise her gift.
    Jamie then shares the moment she told her father she wanted to pursue comedy. Although surprised, Johnny Lever supported her decision. She recounts her initial auditions, guided by her father's advice to figure things out on her own. Upon returning to India, she sought help from contacts like Sapan Verma and navigated the industry independently, proving her resilience and determination.
    Addressing the misconception that her journey was easy due to her father's fame, Jamie sheds light on the realities of favouritism in Bollywood. She explains how her family didn't have many industry contacts, leading her to struggle on her own. She proudly shares how people now recognise her for her work, recounting a recent compliment from Kareena Kapoor Khan.
    Jamie discusses the emotional side of her life, revealing her insecurities about her looks and the hurtful comments she's received about her body and face.
    She explains the intricacies of comedy, emphasising that even a five-minute performance requires preparation. Jamie found her niche in impersonations combined with singing, and she highlights her roles in films like "Bhoot Police" and "Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karu," showcasing her versatility in various accents and characters.
    Before the interview concludes, Jamie treats us to her brilliant impersonations of Asha Bhosle, Farah Khan, Kangana Ranaut, and Rakhi Sawant.
