In the final episode of this season of Footloose by Shre and Eish, Sarada Raghavan takes us through her journey from a student of life sciences and biochemistry at St Xavier's College, Mumbai, to working on biomarkers in Germany and then gradually starting her entrepreneurial journey in Singapore with her holistic beauty and wellness brand, Iryasa. The conversation meanders through what's organic and what's not, responsible sourcing, the tedious process of getting certified, quality control, digital marketing and consumer behaviours.

Shre has achieved a new milestone in her life. She has watched over 150 episodes of K-dramas. No mean feat, says Eish, who cannot sit through a series longer than ten episodes. In this penultimate episode of Footloose by Shre and Eish, they talk about Korean entertainment and the Korean influences in their lives.

Shre is just back from a trip to the far north of New Zealand where she has been talking to avocado farmers for research. The conversation moves from avocados in New Zealand to durians, the intense-smelling fruit in Singapore, to the Gujarati delicacy, handvo, Eisha made for Shreyasi's parents in Mumbai, to veganism and monoculture soya farms in the USA.

Eisha's three-year-old son has just started preschool and so she has now entered a new group of toddler moms on WhatsApp. Here, she and Shre talk about the things they discuss on the group and the fact that Eisha has to teach her son The Crow And The Pitcher story but her son has never seen a crow. An episode of laughs!

In this episode of Footloose By Shre and Eish, Mumbai-based journalist Waleed Hussain walks the audience through his journey from Agra to Fatehpur Sikri. He followed the footsteps of the 16th-century Mughal Emperor Akbar to the home of the renowned Sufi saint, Salim Chishti. The heirless emperor sought the saint's blessings and then went on to have three sons. Waleed did not have any particular goals when he embarked on the journey. At one point, he almost gave up. He persisted and managed to walk the 40 Km until the Buland Darwaza towered over him. Endurance, faith, patience, triumph, fear and humility mark this journey inwards and outwards.

In New Zealand, Shreyasi steps out with her dog, Koru, for some fresh air at the beach and sees a spectacular sunset. While most of us find shells, seaweed, driftwood and coconut shells on beaches, Shre has managed to find some unusual creatures in the sand.

The Pavagadh-Champaner complex near Vadodara in Gujarat is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In 2009, on a visit to Pavagadh with her cousin, Julian, Eisha took a ride in a rickety cable car. Julian was worried that they might fall and asked Eisha if there had been an accident and Eisha, the journalist that she was said, "2004, six people died." The other three passengers in the car were shocked and terrified. Julian burst out laughing. In this episode of Footloose By Shre and Eish, Eisha talks about her first post-Covid visit to Pavagadh and shares her memories of climbing the 2000 steps of the mountain to the Mahakali Temple on the top.
