Hai wahii surma is jag me, Jo apni raah banata hai…

koi chalta hai padchinho par, koi khud pad chinhh banata hai.

Bahut kam aise mauke milte hai...

joh logo ki kahaaniyan aap tak pahuchatey hai, unki kahaani aap tak lau.

Aaj ka episode isiliye bahut special hai....

Today, on the podcast 'The Billion Dreams' I get the privilege to have a dialogue with Neelesh Misra, a master storyteller whose evocative narratives have touched countless hearts. From humble beginnings in the heartland of India, Neelesh's path has been one of relentless dedication and passion, capturing the essence of India through his words and voice.

Neelesh’s storytelling journey began as a journalist, honing his craft by capturing the human experience in every piece he wrote. His transition to a celebrated storyteller was marked by the creation of "Yaadon Ka Idiot Box," a radio show on BIG FM 92.7 that became a phenomenon, enchanting audiences with nostalgic and poignant tales. Beyond radio, Neelesh is the Founder of Goan Connection Rural Media Enterprise and The Slow Movement, he has also made significant contributions as an author; lyricist having penned songs for more than 30 films like Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Barfi, etc.; screenwriter; and mentor, each endeavour marked by authenticity and empathy.

His work isn't just about telling stories; it’s about giving a voice to the voiceless and shining a light on the unseen. Neelesh’s commitment to social causes and efforts to empower rural storytellers through initiatives like the Gaon Connection, ItsYourMic have had a profound impact. By nurturing new talent and promoting rural journalism, he ensures that stories from every corner of India are heard and cherished.

But what makes Neelesh truly special is not just his professional achievements. Known for his humility and kindness, he remains deeply connected to his roots, always ready to lend a helping hand. His home in Gadahila Village is a haven for creativity and community, often hosting gatherings where artists, writers, and musicians come together to share ideas and inspire each other.

In this episode, we celebrate Neelesh Misra – a storyteller, visionary, and true inspiration. Tune in to hear about his journey, his impact, and the lesser-known aspects of his life that make him a remarkable human being. This conversation promises to be a value add to your life.

Are you living a life that truly makes you happy?  

In this powerful conversation, I dive into the essence of pursuing dreams that fulfill us from within. So many of us are driven by external pressures—expectations, financial needs, or the roles we’ve taken on for others. Yet, amidst all this, have we forgotten the importance of our own happiness?

This isn’t about throwing caution to the wind; it’s about crafting a life that resonates with who you truly are. What if you could create a gig that not only pays the bills but also fuels your soul? 

Through my journey across 350+ films, different cultures, and my transformation into a motivational speaker, I’ve learned that our passions can become more than dreams—they can be a pathway to a meaningful, joyful existence. It’s not about defying the world; it’s about exploring possibilities and listening to the one voice that truly matters: Your Own.

Start by investing in what makes you feel alive. Don’t let the fear of others’ opinions stand in the way of a life crafted by YOU, for YOU. Every journey has a beginning—today, let this conversation be yours.

Embrace possibilities. Walk your path. Live a life that is authentically *yours.* ️

A father met another father and what they shared was simply magical…

By a chance encounter on flight, I got the privilege to meet this incredibly inspiring parent.

As a father, I could understand the journey that he is paving for his 10 year old child, “Tejas.” Every parent wants the best for their children and in every way possible they ensure that they can provide an amazing life in the best possible way that they know of! Mr. Ritesh Pandey has been on a journey, one external and one that is deeply internal, proudly taking on the role of nurturer for himself and his family. He believes that one is gifted with the capability that’s why they are entrusted with this responsibility and owns it with a lot of pride.

Apart from being an amazing father, he is also a treasure trove of incredible thoughts and words, inspired by Rashmirathi penned by the notable poet Ramdhari Singh Dinkar.

If you are a parent who is nurturing a special child, this story will ignite you with hope and help build courage as you take on your journey with your children.

I feel privileged and grateful that I am in a position where I can share this heartwarming experience with you.

Please let’s help spread his inspiring story to as many people as possible.

Show your love and support to Mr Ritesh Pandey in every compassionate way you can.

Lots of Love and More Power To You Ritesh Ji…

You have inspired me and I am sure this will inspire many more.

Alshukran Ritesh Ji…

Staying true to his name, 'Abhay' - the Fearless one, a man who describes his life as a provocative journey and undauntedly wears his heart on his sleeves, it's our honour to have him on the podcast, "The Billion Dreams."

Abhay Deol, a name that conjures up images of a brooding Devdas, a witty conman in Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!, or a carefree adventurer in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. But beyond the silver screen facade lies a man who defies easy categorization. Abhay Deol is more than just an actor; he's a thinker, a questioner, a seeker on a journey of self-discovery.

Born into Bollywood royalty, Deol could have easily coasted on family fame. Instead, he carved his own path, shunning formulaic roles and gravitating towards those that challenged him and resonated with his soul. His filmography reflects a restless spirit, a constant exploration of human complexities and societal issues. But Deol's quest isn't confined to the film sets. He's an avid traveler, seeking inspiration and understanding in diverse cultures and experiences. He's a vocal advocate for mental health awareness, openly discussing his own struggles and encouraging others to break the stigma. Deol's persona is an intriguing blend of contradictions. He's reserved yet enigmatic, introspective yet fiercely opinionated. He's comfortable in his own skin, unfazed by the trappings of fame, and more interested in exploring the depths of human experience than basking in the spotlight. He's a man who walks his own path, guided by his own compass, and that's perhaps what makes him so compelling, both on-screen and off.

Last seen together, sharing the screen for the drama series, 'Trial by Fire,' catch Ashish Vidyarthi & Abhay Deol in a candid tête-à-tête where they delve into the depths of the Indian film industry, dissect the role of fate, the price of bold choices, and the delicate dance between personal happiness and that of others. Brace yourself for a thought-provoking exploration of morality, artistic expression, and the power to craft your own life's narrative. This is more than a conversation; it's a journey into the hearts and minds of two extraordinary artists. Don't miss it!

In the warm glow of prosperous times, people come together like moths to a flame, a mix of sincere hearts and hidden motives. This delicate dance of status subtly shapes our relationships.

In this unfolding narrative, we learn, grow, and find solace in the genuine warmth of real connections, ever mindful of the lessons time gracefully imparts.

Welcome to the 4th episode of "50 +Zindagi" where we explore the many dimensions of Status.

Kahi dur kisse shuru hue aur baatein judti gayi, waqt yuh guzar gaya ki afsana ban gaya!

A Celebration of 20 years of friendship, of togetherness, a hug of comfort and the warmth of love; sometimes breaking bread and sip of hot chai; creating a world where thoughts flow like free verses, sharing our love for poetry like two friends sharing their favourite pie…. When Two Friends, Two Artists, poles apart yet so close together meet, come witness the Magic that gets created

In a fast-paced world, Manoj Tapadia is like a petrichor, rare yet familiarly pleasant, a filmmaker, screenwriter, and a poet, emerging as a luminary, weaving his unique narrative from the heart of Odisha's steel city, Rourkela, to the pulsating streets of Mumbai. Raised in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, amidst the rich milieu of Hindi literature, Manoj's journey is a testament to the power of enduring passion and cultural roots. Since setting foot in Mumbai in 1997, he has carved a niche in the advertising world, notably as the creative lead for Lifebuoy at Lowe Lintas and the mind behind the award-winning campaigns "Little Gandhi" and "Bindas Bol." His evolution from a junior copywriter to an acclaimed ad filmmaker, with over 100 films and accolades from both local and international forums, mirrors his deep-seated love for storytelling. Beyond the advertising realm, Manoj's talents have flourished in the Indian film industry, contributing to notable films like "Cheeni Kum" and "Madras Café" as a screenwriter, dialogue writer, and lyricist. As he currently juggles writing and directing TV commercials, scriptwriting for prominent directors, and nurturing his debut feature film, Manoj Tapadia remains, at his core, a storyteller – painting vivid narratives through lens, words, and verses.

In this incredible episode, Manoj Tapadia and Ashish Vidyarthi sit down in a candid conversation to chat about life and more. In this share of heart you will hear some unheard kisse from their lives; talking about Fate and free will; Stories ranging from Gulzaar Sahab, Dilip Kumar, and Julia Roberts to sharing their thoughts on the Animal Movie debate; How a writer pens a character sketch allowing you to take a peek into the mind of an artist; How each of their life journeys are influenced by poetry and prominent poets that left a mark in their hearts; How Manoj Tapadia became a writer and Why Ashish Vidyarthi doesn’t watch his own film?… this and many more revelations coming up in this impromptu meetup.
