Kripa sits down with the cast of 'The Daily Grind' - the latest production put forward by Sydney's biggest South Asian theatrical production charity, MAYA Youth in Arts. We explore the complex relationship between South Asian youth and art - why do we get pushed into art as kids but get discouraged to become artistic professionals? Is it the prestige? The money? The lack of stability? Welp, join the chat to find out.

Your host Kripa is joined this week by Raveena Grover, 24 year old Punjabi woman born and brought up in Perth before moving to Sydney, Australia. We delve into Raveena's coming out story as a queer person of colour, coming out shame in South Asian communities, whether being in a relationship makes one 'more gay' as opposed to being single, and the privileges and frustrations that come with not looking "stereotypically straight". It's a heavy one so buckle in!
