  • S09E07: Simple Brilliance with VIP Guest Pearle Dey

    Pearle is a very talented young actor who played the role of Baby Reya in the movie ‘I Want To Talk’. It was fascinating to see young Pearle be at the center of the movie for the first hour, charming us with her presence and one liners. This amazing kid, who we all called ‘the real boss’ during filming, made the journey of making the movie unforgettable.


    Here are some key insights from this week’s show:

    • I felt very shy when I met the director Shoojit Sircar for the first time.
    • I just like to act, I don't like seeing myself on the screen.
    • Once I saw the movie, I felt nervous and happy, but also scared and excited.
    • This movie is very meaningful. It says, “Keep fighting! Never give up!”
    • I am happy when someone cracks a good joke.

      • S09E04: My Movie Daughter & Me with VIP Guest Ahilya Bamroo

        When I first met Ahilya Bamroo in the sets of the movie, I was trying to find my daughter in her. Very soon I realized why Shoojit Sircar chose her to play the role of Reya in the movie I Want to Talk. It was fascinating to see how she processed the evolving relationship with her on-screen dad, who was going through every possible life challenge, while holding on to her unique personality.


        When I sat down with her for this conversation, I really wished my daughter Raka was there in the conversation too. It would have been fascinating to see Raka and Reya talk.

        Here is my conversation with my movie daughter Ahilya. I am excited to see her career evolve and blossom in her journey ahead.

      • S09E02: Arjun to Arjun Conversation with VIP Guest Abhishek Bachchan

        Abhishek Bachchan's first podcast ever! When the movie, I Want to Talk was being filmed in Hemet California, I always wanted to ask Abhishek Bachchan (the Movie Arjun) how he felt being Arjun. As I got to know him, I was more intrigued by his level of professionalism and dedication. The filming ended and we never got a chance to have that Arjun to Arjun conversation.


        In my healing journey, I had marked 100 days, 1,000 days, 5,000 days and 10,000 days. The 10,000th day was February 5th, 2024. That night I was up all night. As I browsing the net, I realized February 5th was Abhishek’s birthday. I reached out to him to wish him a happy birthday and both of us realized it was destiny that our paths crossed.


        Now, just before the launch of the movie we finally had the Arjun to Arjun conversation. It was simply from his heart. So here it is. Please do not miss the end of the conversation when Abhishek shared his wish for me. All I can say is that his words left me speechless.

        Here are some key insights from this week’s show:

        - Align towards how we make an impact to create transformative change.

        - Getting people motivated and excited towards a vision and mission is one of the most difficult things to do.

        - When something that is incredibly important is kept out of reach, we keep it from making an impact.

        - Validation isn’t vision. It's clients acknowledging that you are valuable to them.

        - We often get hung up on internal obstacles instead of looking at a way to prevent them.

        - We would be bored to tears in life if we didn’t have obstacles and challenges to energize us.

        - Surround yourself with great people, and then collaboratively iterate.

        - Sometimes, change at a large scale takes time.

        - Vision is easy, executing it is the hard.

        - Have fun along the journey to making an impact.
