One Mission. | Ep 48 In 1919, as India stood on the edge of revolution, another quieter struggle was unfolding the fight for women to be heard, to be counted, to vote.  This episode tells the remarkable story of Herabai and Mithan Tata, a mother and daughter who travelled from India to London, studied at the London School of Economics, and stood at the heart of a global movement for women’s rights.  At a time when the future of India was being debated in British Parliament, they ensured one thing was clear, women would not be left out.  Filmed between Parliament Square and LSE, this episode explores a powerful, often forgotten connection: how Indian and British women were part of the same struggle, shaping each other’s fight for equality across borders.  Featuring insights from LSE archivist Lisa McQuillan, we uncover the documents, the voices, and the legacy of two women whose impact is still felt today.  Because the fight for women’s rights was never just one nation’s story, it was always universal.  FULL EPISODE HERE:  📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@loveenatandonproductions  🎙️ Podcast – Smart Link: https://bingepods.com/podcast/podcast-rn7moe  💬 Join Our Discord Community: https://discord.gg/p2UYt9uV5d    Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 43 Eclipsing the West | Sir Vince Cable | Ep 47 “Trump’s attack on Iran was an act of extraordinary stupidity.” In Episode 47 of India: A Story in the Making, Sir Vince Cable, former UK Business Secretary, former Liberal Democrat leader, and now Visiting Professor at the London School of Economics and in Shenzhen, China, joins me for a wide-ranging, candid, and no-holds-barred conversation. We talk about Iran, Trump, the fading power of the West, and the rise of India and China and the critical mistakes that could still slow India’s growth, from its missed manufacturing moment to the challenges of reform in a complex democracy. Cable reflects on why he believes India is already a significantly bigger power than Britain in many ways, why globalisation is breaking down, and whether institutions like the UN and NATO can still do the job they were created for. We also get into the darker undercurrents of power in Britain — Epstein, Prince Andrew, Peter Mandelson, along with Britain’s colonial hangover, Westminster’s blind spots on India, and what a new world order could look like by 2050. Drawing from his book Eclipsing the West: China, India and the Forging of a New World, shortlisted for the Westminster Book Awards and soon to be published in India by Juggernaut, Cable lays out a world in transition, and the choices that will define what comes next.

]]> 52 Are Gen Z Men and Women Becoming Incompatible? A new global study on gender attitudes by King’s College London and Ipsos, covering 29 countries and more than 23,000 people aged 18-75, raises some fascinating and worrying questions. ( REPORT: https://www.kcl.ac.uk/news/almost-a-third-of-gen-z-men-agree-a-wife-should-obey-her-husband ; https://www.kcl.ac.uk/assets/news/iwd-2026-global-charts-final.pdf ) The findings really got me thinking. If Gen Z men are becoming more traditional, in some cases even more traditional than their grandfathers while Gen Z women are becoming more progressive and identifying as feminists, what happens next? Will they struggle to find partners? And what does this widening divide mean for relationships, marriage, and the future of gender equality? In this episode of India: A Story in the Making, Leaving Men Behind, I sit down with Professor Heejung Chung, Director of the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership at King’s College London, to unpack the findings. We talk about: • Why Gen Z men appear to be moving toward more traditional gender attitudes • Whether the “tradwife” trend on social media reflects reality • Why many young women feel men have not kept pace with change • What this could mean for relationships and family life • And why India emerges as one of the most fascinating, and complex cases in the study Some of the findings about India genuinely blew me away. If gender roles, expectations, and the changing dynamics between men and women in the Gen Z world, and how Gen X, Boomers and Millennials fit into this shift interests you, then Leaving Men Behind, is the episode for you.

A British Indian Story: Identity, Innovation & Belonging | Ep 44 By 2040, the world could be dealing with a wave of retired batteries, enough to fill London’s Wembley Stadium 23 times over, every single year… to what made a child feel he’s “not the right look.” This episode really is a rollercoaster of many themes woven into one episode of a British Indian journey: Both, Not Half. Dr Amrit Chandan- scientist, innovator, and CEO of Lorefully, a Birmingham boy who had to reset his A-levels, then went on to be recognised as a Forbes 30 Under 30 tech founder and win the Hawley Award for Engineering Innovation. We cut through the noise on climate and tech: the truth about EVs, the battery debate, and what “end-of-life” really means-reuse, recycling, circular design, not just binning the problem. Then we move into identity: what it feels like to be British Indian, the funny stereotypes, myths about Indian origin people in the UK, to figuring out belonging when roots are spread across three different continents across India-Kenya-UK. How a multi-generational home can feel almost radical in a world built around the nuclear family. We even get into arranged marriage, modern love… and Amrit’s one amongst many magic tricks that has kept his own marriage rock solid.

]]> 90 Next Maradona Can Be from India: An Unfiltered Conversation with Kavita Khanna | Ep 41 Love does what logic can’t. Otherwise, how does a woman not even from Punjab end up changing the fortunes of people in a border constituency This is the story of Kavita Daftary—barrister, athlete, swimmer and squash player, LSE- and Harvard-trained—falling in love with Vinod Khanna, the superstar-turned-MP, and building a bond that went far beyond romance: a shared purpose toserve, to show up, and to leave a place better than they found it. That purpose leads to Gurdaspur, Punjab—on the India–Pakistan border—a region of enormous beauty and potential, but also a hard reality shaped by cross-border narcotics smuggling. The Border Security Force (BSF) has publicly reported that along the Punjab border (Jan 1–Nov 30, 2025) it seized 272 drones coming from Pakistan and recovered 367.8 kg heroin, 19 kg ICE (methamphetamine) and 14.5 kg opium. Kavita’s answer is to turn pain into purpose. Through the Kavita & Vinod Khanna Foundation (KVKF), she’s scaling daily sport across villages—what began in 20 villages has grown to 167+, with football and volleyball programs giving children (and families) a different rhythm, a different identity, and a real alternative. Remarkably, 22% of participants are girls—a quiet revolution in itself. To keep this momentum growing, Kavita says she needs people power—support in funds or in-kind (kits, footballs, cones, gear), and volunteers who can share skills and time.

]]> 86 no No Spin, Straight Bat with Murali Kartik – Love, Life & Cricket on India: A Story in the Making Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni have both carved history with their contrasting styles — fire and calm, aggression, and ice. But what does an insider really think of the two? That’s exactly what we ask Murali Kartik, India’s classical left-arm spinner known for his skill, grit and sharp cricketing mind, in this High Five India segment from the episode “No Spin, Straight Bat with Murali Kartik – Love, Life & Cricket,” on India: A Story in the Making. Cricket is always in season in India — a religion, many say — and now the Indian women’s team has once again put the country firmly on the global stage with their phenomenal rise. Which makes it the perfect moment to listen to a man who has worn the India jersey, played under greats, and today analyses the game with disarming honesty.

]]> 664 I’m Not an Actor On India: A Story in the Making, we often talk about how stories travel — and this time, we lived it across three continents. The film “I’m Not an Actor,” directed by Aditya Kripalani and starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Chitrangada Satarupa, was shot across continents — simultaneously in India and Germany over 28 days, with both actors performing live through a screen. So, it felt fitting that on India: A Story in the Making, we too brought together three continents — I was in London, Nawazuddin and Chitrangada joined from Mumbai, and Aditya spoke from Germany. Technology, put to good use, brought us together for a truly global conversation. An Indo-German collaboration, the film reflects a larger cinematic shift. Cinema has always been the world’s cultural bridge — a soft power that connects hearts before borders. No wonder Prime Minister Starmer, on his recent visit to India, announced major Indo-UK collaborations with Yash Raj Films, while Germany too has opened its arms to international partnerships through its new 2024–25 Film Funding Reforms— increasing grants and tax incentives of up to 30% to attract global productions. For Indian filmmakers, it’s a wider canvas than ever before. With India’s cinema audience among the largest in the world, it’s no surprise that Indian stories are finding new homes and audiences abroad. “I’m Not an Actor” premiered in the UK at the Bradford Film Festival and is now screening in select VUE, ODEON, and independent cinemas across the country —one more story reminding us that cinema continues to bridge continents, one frame at a time.

]]> 582 Episode 40 of India: A Story in the Making — “My Mom Thought I’d Joined a Punk Rock Band.” How did the first ever Centre for Hindu Studies open in Oxford — and not in India? Hinduism and Hindu Studies — what’s the difference? One is often approached with emotion, the other with intellect. And perhaps that’s why every time the Bhagavad Gita is proposed to be part of the syllabus, it sparks debate. I was deeply struck when Shaunaka Rishi Das, the man behind opening the world’s first Centre for Hindu Studies, explained this distinction. In our pursuit of religion, somewhere along the way, we may have forgotten its intellectual roots — the knowledge, philosophy, and wisdom it stands for. As Shaunaka points out, when Nehru kept religion out of education, generations grew up without the vocabulary to study or debate faith — and faith became feeling, not understanding. Today, we often see Hinduism through a Western lens, forgetting that it carries an entirely different way of thinking about life, consciousness, and the world. Can global thought truly be called global if Hindu Studies — with its alternative wisdom and philosophy — remains absent from the conversation?

]]> 84 Diwali Special | “My Mom Thought I’d Joined a Punk Rock Band.” | The Story of an Irish Catholic Hindu: Where Faith Meets Philosophy | Shaunaka Rishi Das   In Irish Catholic’s journey to Hinduism. Can faith be inherited or must it be discovered?Born and raised in a small Irish town, Shaunaka Rishi Das (born Timothy Kiernan) grew up with no connection to India or Hinduism. Yet his life’s path led him to Hindu philosophy, discipline, and devotion, a journey so unexpected that his mother once thought he’d joined a punk rock band when he returned home with a shaved head.  In this Diwali special of India: A Story in the Making, we step away from rituals and celebrations to ask deeper questions that many of us quietly carry: If God exists, why is there so much suffering? Can faith exist without religion? Is Hinduism a belief system — or a way of inquiry? And why is Hindu thought often missing from global conversations on meaning, wellbeing, and sustainability?  This calm, reflective conversation with Shaunaka Rishi Das, the first Hindu Chaplain at Oxford University and Founding Director of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, challenged my understanding of the faith I was born into, and left me with questions that lingered long after the cameras stopped rolling.  Some food for thought this Diwali — along with the mithai.  Episode 40: Mum Thought I’d Joined A Punk Rock Band.

First established in the UK in 2020, the dates mark two defining moments: 18 July, when the Indian Independence Act received royal assent, and 17 August, when the Radcliffe Line was published — drawing the borders between India, Pakistan, and modern-day Bangladesh. Today, over 5 million people in the UK — roughly 7.5% of the population — are of South Asian heritage. In England and Wales alone, nearly 1 in 10 people identified as Asian British in the 2021 census, making South Asians the largest Asian ethnic group in the UK. To mark this vibrant month, India: A Story in the Making presents a special High Five India feature on Shruti Merchant— the powerhouse choreographer behind Come Fall in Love: The DDLJ Musical, now lighting up the stage in Manchester. Carrying forward a dazzling legacy — her sister is the iconic Vaibhavi Merchant, known for timeless Bollywood hits like “Dholi Taaro Dhol Baaje” — Shruti is taking Indian storytelling global, one spectacular step at a time. Because truly, nothing celebrates South Asian culture more than our food, our films, and our music — and no wonder Bollywood’s eternal love story Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge continues to win hearts, from Mumbai to Manchester.

]]> 377 no High Five with Rizwan Rafi and Sabakat Rafi “It would have been lovely for him to be here,” says Rizwan Rafi, the first grandson of Mohammad Rafi, his eyes brimming with emotion. On 31st July 1980, the skies opened up. It rained as if the heavens themselves mourned the voice of a nation. Rafi Sahab—India’s golden voice—was gone. Little Rizwan, just a boy then, was nearly lost in the sea of thousands who came, drenched but undeterred, to say goodbye. This special High Five segment from India: A Story in the Making is a heartfelt remembrance—of a man who sang of love, life, and longing… and of India, a country he adored, offering some of its most stirring patriotic songs: 🎵 "Kar Chale Hum Fida" – Haqeeqat 🎵 "Bharat Ka Rehne Waala Hoon" – Purab Aur Paschim 🎵 "Vatan Ki Raah Mein" – Shaheed 🎵 "Apni Azadi Ko Hum" – Leader A tribute to a humble soul—and a quiet reflection on the nation he so deeply loved. 📺 Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/vKG5bkCtYT4?si=nTFdZPca_QYPR0fk FOR MORE SUCH STIRRING CONVERSATION – Please LIKE & SUBSCRIBE TO: https://www.youtube.com/@loveenatandonproductions   PODCAST SMART LINK https://bingepods.com/podcast/podcast-rn7moe   Rizwan and his wife Sabakat, who live in London and run East London Kitchens https://www.eastlondon.kitchen/contact ).   Loveena Tandon: HOST: SOCIAL MEDIA HANDLES   LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/loveenatandon/   Twitter/X https://twitter.com/loveenatandon   Instagram   https://www.instagram.com/tandonloveena/?igsh=MW5tOHdlc3cyMGJrOA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr   https://www.instagram.com/indiastoryabroad/   Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@loveenatandon Learn more about your ad choices.

On India: A Story in the Making

Now that the India–UK Free Trade Agreement is signed and sealed, it’s more

important than ever to understand what it really means to do business with — and

invest in — India.

We often hear: “It’s a £6 billion benefit FTA.”

But what does that mean for the 1.4 billion people in India, the 67 million in the

UK, and the wider global economy?

In this episode, we zoom into India as an opportunity — unpacking:

 How India’s consumer behaviour differs?

 Why India isn’t one market — but many?

 Where the key growth and investment areas lie?

 What international businesses need to understand before entering?

We’re joined by two experts who bring a rare double-lens perspective — having

lived and worked in both India and the UK, and deeply engaged in the trade, policy,

and legal space:

�� Chietigj Bajpaee, Senior Research Fellow – South Asia, Chatham House

�� Kalpana, Legal Expert

A big thank you to Bridge India (https://bridgeindia.org.uk/) for facilitating such

timely and insightful conversations.

And what role can a rising India play in a fractured world order and a fast-evolving multipolar world? While the Iran conflict may seem to have de-escalated, it exposed major geopolitical shifts that are still unfolding. Power is fragmenting, alliances are shifting, and a new global reality is taking shape. The post-Cold War world order is breaking apart — and India stands at a critical inflection point. This episode was recorded just before the Iran crisis, during the Bridge India –Ideas for India 2025 Conference, where early tremors of these changes were already visible. The conversation has only grown more relevant since. On India: A Story in the Making, we ask:  Can India remain non-aligned in a world of strategic rivalries?  How does it balance U.S.-China-Russia tensions?  Why has India not secured a permanent seat on the UN Security Council?  Can India act as a bridge for the Global South?  How effective has India’s non-alignment policy been in this shifting global order? From strategic autonomy and economic diplomacy to India’s potential global leadership, this episode offers timely insights for anyone tracking geopolitics and the global South’s future.

]]> 1943 First British-Indian teen to swim the English Channel - Prisha Tapre In the UK, 1 in 6 young people struggle with mental health — and academic pressure is a major driver. As 11+, GCSEs and A-Levels take over, students are often told to drop sports and “focus.” But evidence says otherwise. A 2021 Journal of School Health study found that teens who stay physically active during exams perform better, stress less, and feel more emotionally balanced. Still, many young athletes are benched during exam time. This episode follows the powerful story of 16-year-old Prisha — the first British Asian girl to swim the English Channel while preparing for her GCSEs. But it’s not just about the feat. It’s about how sport can anchor teens through stress — and how the quiet support of one coach can shape a life. Her open water coach, Jeremy Irvine, trained her not for a fee, but for a purpose. Because someone once did that for him. This episode is a celebration of resilience, the power of giving without asking, and the kind of kindness that builds futures. 🔴 Episode LIVE ON: India: A Story in the Making FULL VIDEO https://www.youtube.com/@loveenatandonproductions PODCAST SMART LINK https://bingepods.com/podcast/podcast-rn7moe   Loveena Tandon: HOST: SOCIAL MEDIA HANDLES  LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/loveenatandon/   Twitter/X https://twitter.com/loveenatandon   Instagram https://www.instagram.com/loveenatandonofficial/?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA%3D%3D   https://www.instagram.com/tandonloveena/?igsh=MW5tOHdlc3cyMGJrOA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr   Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@loveenatandon Learn more about your ad choices.

But Ayurveda knew it all along—thousands of years before wellness trends made it cool. While 1.3 million Indian students head abroad for education, Adam Baktai did the opposite. Born in Hungary, exposed to Hinduism at just 1.5 years old, he grew up knowing nothing else. At 15, he made a bold choice—to leave everything behind and study in a Gurukul in India, where students live and learn under a guru’s guidance. Two decades later, Adam isn’t just a Hindu astrologer, Vedic pandit, or Ayurveda expert or a Vastu Shastri—he’s someone whose education gave him tools for a holistic life—mind, body, and soul. Adam’s story is unconventional, thought-provoking, and deeply relevant. In a world ruled by AI, what kind of education do we really need? Should we rethink what knowledge is worth passing down? And if you’re curious about the top three Ayurvedic practices for better health—or just want to hear about a man who defied the life he was born into to carve his own destiny—tune in now! 🔴 The episode is LIVE!

]]> 497 A Life Between Worlds | An Untold Story | Ep 30 We often know people by their awards, their achievements, their ambition. But do we ever truly know their struggles, their longings, the quiet voids they carry? Henriett Tunyogi, an award-winning Hungarian ballerina and acclaimed filmmaker, was honoured with Hungary’s highest cultural recognition. Yet behind the applause, something always felt missing. Born into a royal lineage she knew nothing about, Henriett grew up with a family truth deliberately concealed. Why was it hidden? And what does it do to a person to sense their own life is missing a chapter? As a child, she sat on Russian tanks, singing, unaware that the very force she was cheering had torn her family apart. Under Soviet rule, her aristocratic heritage was erased, her family pushed into silence, and her father forced to flee to Austria. So how did Henriett become Ganga? Why did India: the Himalayas, the Kumbh, the pull of mantras, feel like home? This is a story about belief as lived experience, and belonging found in unexpected places. Rooted in Hungary’s past, it carries echoes of today’s Russia–Ukraine war, a reminder that history does not disappear; it returns. If you’ve ever felt the pull of something greater, the need to break free, or the longing to truly belong, this episode is for you. 🔴 LIVE NOW!

]]> 3222 Why the world is tuning into India's Spirituality? ft. Sukhayanti Devi Dasi, Vallabhi-Kanta Dasi, Ganga Henriett Tunyogi Seeing India Through New Eyes They say you can’t truly appreciate something when you’re too close to it—sometimes, the clearest perspective comes from the outside. India: A Story in the Making has given me that fresh lens, making me look at India—and its spiritual depth—not just as someone born into it, but through the eyes of those who found their way to it. Why Would Someone Leave Everything Behind for a Vedic Life? What makes a Canadian-Israeli woman transform into Sukhyanti—embracing a life so deeply rooted in Vedic tradition that she wakes at 4 AM, sends her children to a Gurukul, and lives without modern comforts—yet calls it comforting? How does someone like Vallabhi, who lost her husband young and raised a child alone, find unshakable solace in Krishna—believing that all she must do is keep doing her duty because Krishna still means well? And what led Henriett, a ballerina, filmmaker, and teacher from an aristocratic Hungarian family to India? A simple stone from the Himalayas sparked something in her—drawing her first to yoga, then to the Kumbh, where she was given the name Ganga. Why is the World Turning to Indian Spirituality? What Makes Kumbh More Than Just a Dip in the Ganges? But is this just belief? Or is there an ancient science behind it? Is There a Science Behind Kumbh’s Spiritual Power? What does Kumbh symbolise? What Does This Mean for the World? At its core, Indian spirituality isn’t about geography—it’s about connection.  I found mine through Sukhyanti, Vallabhi, and Ganga’s unique journeys, offering me a new way of looking at Kumbh—a festival I grew up with in Ujjain but never saw through this lens. It was clear: whether through mass rituals like Kumbh or solitude in places like Krishna Valley, people are seeking the same thing—a deeper, more meaningful way to exist.  The common thread?

]]> 2051 no What really is love? ft. Sukhayanti Devi Dasi & Vallabhi-Kanta Dasi On this Valentine’s Day, I want to ask—what really is love?  It’s always amazed me that some of the most enduring stories of love are tales of unrequited love. Heer-Ranjha, Laila-Majnu, Shirin-Farhad, Tristan and Isolde—no matter which part of the world you look at, the theme is the same: love that remains incomplete yet eternal. Standing in the divine Krishna Valley in Somogyvámos, Hungary, I found myself wondering the same thing.  I stood before the Radha Krishna murti in the temple—a symbol of love so deep that Radha is believed to be the path to Krishna. And yet, in life, they were never together in the worldly sense. Both were married to others, but their devotion to each other never wavered. It was something far beyond possession or expectation. Sometimes, listening to my teenage children, I wonder if we’re even speaking the same language. It’s not just English that has changed—it’s the very language of relationships and love. Words like situationship, breadcrumbing, ghosting, and love bombing have replaced the older ideas of love and courtship. I wonder what love means to them. In this divine temple, under a grace I cannot fully describe, I felt a strong urge to explore love in a new way.  I spoke to two women who have dedicated their lives to the service of Krishna. They are married, living the grahastha life (the life of a householder), with their children studying in the gurukul here. They don’t even want to be called gopis, just humble servants of Krishna. What moved me most? They were not even born in India, nor raised in Hindu culture. Yet their devotion is absolute. I’m still trying to make sense of it all.  What is love, really?  Please leave your answers too below ☺ FULL VIDEO https://www.youtube.com/@loveenatandonproductions PODCAST SMART LINK  https://bingepods.com/podcast/podcast-rn7moe Loveena Tandon: HOST: SOCIAL MEDIA HANDLES LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/loveenatandon/ Twitter/X https://twitter.com/loveenatandon Instagram https://www.instagram.com/loveenatandonofficial/?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA%3D%3D https://www.instagram.com/tandonloveena/?igsh=MW5tOHdlc3cyMGJrOA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@loveenatandon Learn more about your ad choices.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices On this Valentine’s Day, I want to ask—what really is love? 

It’s always amazed me that some of the most enduring stories of love are tales of unrequited love. Heer-Ranjha, Laila-Majnu, Shirin-Farhad, Tristan and Isolde—no matter which part of the world you look at, the theme is the same: love that remains incomplete yet eternal.

Standing in the divine Krishna Valley in Somogyvámos, Hungary, I found myself wondering the same thing. 

I stood before the Radha Krishna murti in the temple—a symbol of love so deep that Radha is believed to be the path to Krishna. And yet, in life, they were never together in the worldly sense. Both were married to others, but their devotion to each other never wavered. It was something far beyond possession or expectation.

Sometimes, listening to my teenage children, I wonder if we’re even speaking the same language. It’s not just English that has changed—it’s the very language of relationships and love. Words like situationship, breadcrumbing, ghosting, and love bombing have replaced the older ideas of love and courtship. I wonder what love means to them.

In this divine temple, under a grace I cannot fully describe, I felt a strong urge to explore love in a new way.

 I spoke to two women who have dedicated their lives to the service of Krishna. They are married, living the grahastha life (the life of a householder), with their children studying in the gurukul here. They don’t even want to be called gopis, just humble servants of Krishna.

What moved me most? They were not even born in India, nor raised in Hindu culture. Yet their devotion is absolute.

I’m still trying to make sense of it all. 

What is love, really?

]]> 2270 How does a British CEO see India's Story? “The only decision we should make about India from the UK is not to make decisions about India from the UK,” said Richard Hawkes, CEO of the British Asian Trust, when he stepped into the role. In this episode of India: A Story in the Making, we uncover how a British leader who once knew nothing about India has grown to deeply love the country—to the extent that he finds inspiration in its chaos, enjoys hours in traffic, and applies the concept of jugaad (finding creative solutions with limited resources) in his daily life.  Richard shares his unique perspective on what is it about India—its energy, its contradictions, its challenges—that drives him? He believes India’s evolving social sector holds valuable lessons for the world. We also ask Richard about his remarkable journey—how he has consistently held top leadership positions throughout his career, his leadership hacks, and how young people passionate about the social sector can find meaningful work and build fulfilling careers. For anyone interested in leadership, social change, social finance, or understanding India’s complex story, this conversation offers fresh insights and practical takeaways.

Christmas in Desi Style In a true desi-style this Christmas Eve, India: A Story in the Making brings you a heartfelt tribute to the incomparable Mohammed Rafi Sahab on the centenary of his birth—December 24, 1924. This episode has been nothing short of a joyful journey—immersing myself in Rafi Sahab’s songs, and spending time with his grandson Rizwan and his wife Sabakat, who live in London and run East London Kitchens. What began with a plate of poha and chai flowed into a wholesome dinner of dosa and appam, ending sweetly with paan. It was a meeting full of warmth, delicious food, and stories that lingered in the air long after. Thank you Rizwan Sahab and Sabakat.  Rizwan Sahab, with kindness and generosity, shared treasures from his past—precious family photographs that hold a world of memories. Through this “rearview mirror” into his family’s history, we were able to weave together an episode brimming with joy, laughter, and moments that tug at the heart. Life, as they say, is rarely black and white—it thrives in the shades of grey. This conversation, filled with stories that made us laugh and cry all at once, was one of the most enriching experiences. Join me this Christmas Eve to celebrate the man whose voice brought love, warmth, and magic into every home. Whether you’re a music lover, a Rafi Sahab devotee, or someone who cherishes life’s golden moments, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

]]> 3158 no What has the World missed About Modern Indian Architecture? What has the World missed About Modern Indian Architecture?   When we think of Indian architecture our mind gravitates to temples, palaces, and timeless symbols of a rich, ancient past. While these are iconic, the narrative is rapidly evolving, a story the world must not miss. By 2023, nearly a third of India’s population had already moved to cities.

When we think of Indian architecture our mind gravitates to temples, palaces, and timeless symbols of a rich, ancient past. While these are iconic, the narrative is rapidly evolving, a story the world must not miss.

By 2023, nearly a third of India’s population had already moved to cities. According to the World Bank, by 2036, 600 million people—40% of the population—will live in urban areas, contributing nearly 70% to GDP. Managing this urban shift will be critical for India to achieve its goal of becoming a developed nation by 2047, its 100th year of independence.

India has done it before. Over 4,000 years ago, the Indus Valley Civilisation set the standard for urban planning with thriving cities, advanced drainage systems, and grid layouts.

The question now is: Can India do it again?

The Defining Moment

With urbanisation comes opportunity—and challenge.

India faces critical decisions about sustainability, overpopulation, and balancing the preservation of heritage with the need for progress.

The Big Questions

In this episode of India: A Story in the Making, we dive into pressing questions about India’s architectural journey:

  • What challenges does New India face as it urbanises?
  • What is modern urban planning getting right—and wrong?
  • What has the world missed about India’s evolving architecture?
  • How is AI shaping the future of design?

The Experts

To unpack these topics, I speak with two fascinating voices:

  • Dikshu C. Kukreja, Director of the CP Kukreja Foundation for Design Excellence: A prominent figure in modern Indian architecture, Dikshu is actively shaping the urban transformation story of India.
  • Sumita Singha OBE, RIBA Trustee, Architect, Author, and Educator: Having left India decades ago, Sumita offers a reflective perspective from abroad—on how New India has written its architectural story so far, what it has missed, and what the world needs to understand.

 

Why This Story Matters

India’s urban journey is the world’s business. The choices made today in its cities will shape global trends in sustainability, design, and climate action. This isn’t just India’s story—it’s a global one.

Tune in to explore the challenges, breakthroughs, and lessons of modern Indian architecture. Whether you’re curious about urbanisation or love stories of transformation, this episode is for you.

]]> 522 EP 20 Is this India’s century, and why? ft. Debashis Chatterjee In a country still grappling with poverty and deprivation, where "chaos" is a way of life, sceptics might see this question as loaded. But for Professor Debashis Chatterjee, it’s an opportunity to rewrite the narrative. Fresh from organizing a conference in London, titled Globalising Indian Thought, Professor Chatterjee brings a bold vision to the table—one that redefines what India can offer the world. When we sat down for what was meant to be a 45-minute discussion, it turned into a deeply engrossing conversation that stretched over twice the time. His passion for Indian thought and its relevance today was infectious—and I hope you find as much value in it as I did. A distinguished Professor and the longest-serving Director of an IIM, he leads one of India’s most iconic institutions—a product of Nehru’s vision to create a world-class educational ecosystem modelled on the likes of Harvard. Yet, he boldly questions, “What’s Indian about these Indian Institutes of Management?”—a question he is applying directly to IIM Kozhikode, the institution he leads. This provocative question drives his mission to transform IIM Kozhikode into a modern-day Gurukul, blending ancient Indian wisdom with contemporary leadership.  And here’s why this matters: Did you know that more than 20 Indian-origin CEOs head billion-dollar companies globally? These leaders aren’t just products of great institutions—they’re rooted in a way of thinking that combines resilience, adaptability, and community-driven values. As the author of books like Karma Sutra: Leadership and Wisdom in Uncertain Times and Timeless Leadership: 18 Leadership Sutras from the Bhagavad Gita, and 17 such books, Professor Chatterjee brings ancient philosophy into sharp focus for modern leadership challenges. For him, the world doesn’t need another technological revolution from the West. What it needs is a cognitive revolution, one that only India’s unique thought process can lead. This episode isn’t just about India’s rise—it’s about understanding the mindset behind it. If you’re someone curious about what Indian thought really means, its relevance today, how to make sense of the “chaos” that India often brings, or simply want to learn what true leadership looks like, this conversation is for you. Professor Chatterjee’s insights are profound yet practical, drawn from decades of experience and a deep belief that India is uniquely poised to lead the world—not by imitating, but by innovating and inspiring. So, tune in to hear why he believes the 21st century belongs to India, how a cognitive revolution could reshape leadership, and what lessons this ancient yet modern nation holds for all of us navigating a rapidly changing world.

]]> 74 EP 17 Gulf Boys' Bollywood Dreams https://omny.fm/shows/india-a-story-in-the-making-with-loveena-tandon/ep-17-gulf-boys-bollywood-dreams What does it take for someone born and raised outside India to make it in Bollywood?  In this episode of India: A Story in the Making, we explore the incredible journey of Taha Shah Badussha, the standout star of Netflix's Heeramandi, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. For Taha, a 'Gulf Boy,' it took 14-15 years of relentless struggle to achieve this success. What inspired a boy with Indian roots, raised in the Gulf, to pursue acting? How did he overcome the challenges? And what advice does he have for aspiring actors aiming for Bollywood? Join us as we dive into Taha's story during his recent visit to London, filled with passion, perseverance, and valuable insights. ABOUT Taha Shah Badussha Born in Abu Dhabi to Dr. Shah Sikkander Badusha and Mahnaz Sikkander Badusha, Taha's education spanned several countries. He studied in Abu Dhabi, India, and Sharjah, but left college early to pursue his passion for acting at the New York Film Academy in Abu Dhabi. Taha initially worked with his mother in various businesses and did some modeling. When the 2008 financial crisis hit, fate led him to acting. Taha moved to Mumbai and debuted as a lead in Yash Raj's "Luv Ka The End." Discovered by casting director Shanoo Sharma, he secured roles in prominent films like Karan Johar's "Gippi," "Barkhaa," and "Baar Baar Dekho.” Taha’s big break came recently with the Netflix series "Heeramandi," where he played the character of Tajdaar. INDIAN FILM INDUSTRY The Indian film industry is the largest in the world in terms of the number of films produced, with 1,500-2,000 films created annually in over 20 languages. While Hollywood in the USA leads globally in influence, revenue, and production quality, Indian films hold significant potential not only within India but also among the Indian diaspora in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Pakistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.    In 2024, the cinema market revenue in India is projected to reach US$4.63 billion, with an annual growth rate of 5.50% leading to a market volume of US$6.05 billion by 2029. The number of viewers is expected to reach 653.2 million by 2029, with user penetration increasing from 38.7% in 2024 to 43.5% by 2029. The average revenue per viewer is projected at US$8.31.    Globally, for the Indian films, most revenue will be generated in the United States, amounting to US$20,980 million in 2024, with key regions including Europe, France, Asia, the United Kingdom, and Germany.

In this episode of India: A Story in the Making, we explore the incredible journey of Taha Shah Badussha, the standout star of Netflix's Heeramandi, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. For Taha, a 'Gulf Boy,' it took 14-15 years of relentless struggle to achieve this success.

What inspired a boy with Indian roots, raised in the Gulf, to pursue acting? How did he overcome the challenges? And what advice does he have for aspiring actors aiming for Bollywood? Join us as we dive into Taha's story during his recent visit to London, filled with passion, perseverance, and valuable insights.

ABOUT

Taha Shah Badussha

Born in Abu Dhabi to Dr. Shah Sikkander Badusha and Mahnaz Sikkander Badusha, Taha's education spanned several countries. He studied in Abu Dhabi, India, and Sharjah, but left college early to pursue his passion for acting at the New York Film Academy in Abu Dhabi.

Taha initially worked with his mother in various businesses and did some modeling. When the 2008 financial crisis hit, fate led him to acting. Taha moved to Mumbai and debuted as a lead in Yash Raj's "Luv Ka The End." Discovered by casting director Shanoo Sharma, he secured roles in prominent films like Karan Johar's "Gippi," "Barkhaa," and "Baar Baar Dekho.”

Taha’s big break came recently with the Netflix series "Heeramandi," where he played the character of Tajdaar.

INDIAN FILM INDUSTRY

The Indian film industry is the largest in the world in terms of the number of films produced, with 1,500-2,000 films created annually in over 20 languages. While Hollywood in the USA leads globally in influence, revenue, and production quality, Indian films hold significant potential not only within India but also among the Indian diaspora in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Pakistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. 

 

In 2024, the cinema market revenue in India is projected to reach US$4.63 billion, with an annual growth rate of 5.50% leading to a market volume of US$6.05 billion by 2029. The number of viewers is expected to reach 653.2 million by 2029, with user penetration increasing from 38.7% in 2024 to 43.5% by 2029. The average revenue per viewer is projected at US$8.31. 

 

Globally, for the Indian films, most revenue will be generated in the United States, amounting to US$20,980 million in 2024, with key regions including Europe, France, Asia, the United Kingdom, and Germany.

In this episode, we speak with Baroness Arlene Foster, who currently chairs Inter Trade UK and was the first female First Minister of Northern Ireland, about whether part of the delay comes from the colonial hangover that Britain still needs to shed completely. We also explore how the elections in both countries might impact the finalisation of the FTA. Baroness Foster offers her unique perspective on these developments, especially at a time when post-Brexit Britain is seeking to carve its place in the world, and India has surged ahead economically, surpassing the UK to become the fifth-largest economy in the world. In addition to her professional insights, Baroness Foster opens up about her personal journey, sharing what it was like to balance being a mother and serving as the First Minister. These beautiful moments give listeners a glimpse into the woman behind the political figure.

]]> 3643 EP 12 Why This Englishman Teaches Sanskrit This is the story of David Stollar. David lives in London and it has always been his home. He dropped out of A levels, and yet defied the odds to become a teacher… and then something even rarer: the Englishman who helped shape how Sanskrit is taught in the UK, writing course books, and contributing to the GCSE syllabus. David has never set foot in India. And still, Sanskrit became his unexpected connection to something ancient, beautiful, and profoundly human. There was a time when David fell into deep depression and sometimes felt suicidal. What helped him hold on and slowly rebuild was study, discipline, and the guiding light of his life: the Bhagavad Gita. David's captivating journey unfolds in India: A Story in the Making. It’s a story that reminds us geographies don’t define destinies. Meaning can be found. Purpose can return. And even in the most modern world, an ancient language can still change a life.

]]> 3330 no EP 11 India in Spain https://omny.fm/shows/india-a-story-in-the-making-with-loveena-tandon/ep-11-indian-in-spain Strolling on the beautiful, stone-engraved streets of Marbella in Southern Spain, I never imagined I'd discover so much of India. It all began with the revelation that Flamenco, the eloquently powerful dance from Andalusia, Spain, has a surprising link to India.  This discovery led me to Asami, a single mom of two and an incredible Flamenco dancer.As I delved into the Flamenco-India connection with Asami, I was inspired by her journey – a Japanese woman teaching and performing Flamenco in Marbella. Sometimes, the place of birth doesn't ensure a feeling of belonging.  My quest continued with Pedro Gonzales, a Flamenco teacher at Aloha College in Malaga, Spain. Watching his group perform, the unmistakable influence of Indian dance forms in Flamenco became apparent. Flamenco runs in Pedro's family. Despite his many pursuits, it's through Flamenco that he feels he gets his "Soul Salary." This India connection in Spain didn't stop at Flamenco. While wandering these charming streets of Marbella, I met a few more fascinating individuals like Emanuela and Simon, each with unique connections to India.  Emanuela sources her clothes from the capital of India, New Delhi, and designs them in Italian style, reflecting her origins. She sells these outfits in Marbella.  Simon, on the other hand, travels three times a year to buy furniture directly from artisans in Rajasthan, India. His shop sits at the top of the posh Puerto Banus area of Marbella, overlooking the mountains and surrounded by restaurants. If human spirit and stories intrigue you, this is the episode for you. Come, listen in and unravel the enchanting tales of Marbella's streets, where the echoes of India intertwine with the rhythms of Flamenco.
