| 9/12/25 | ![]() Radhika Das on Krishna, Vrindavan, Premanand Ji Maharaj, Bhakti & Love | Bani Anand | Awaken | In this soulful episode of Awaken, host Bani Anand sits down with Radhika Das for an intimate conversation on spirituality, Bhakti, and the search for God in the modern worldThe interview begins with Radhika’s journey of becoming sattvic, choosing purity, simplicity, and balance in his lifestyle. He opens up about how these conscious choices gradually prepared him to embrace Bhakti, allowing him to discover joy and clarity in places where he once felt lost. His reflections reveal that spirituality is not about withdrawing from life, but about transforming the way we live it.He then speaks candidly about heartbreak and hitting rock bottom. For Radhika Das, pain was not the end but the beginning, a space where his search for meaning became urgent and real. Those difficult times taught him resilience, surrender, and the truth that healing often comes from leaning on faith when nothing else seems to hold.One of the most moving parts of the podcast is Radhika’s vision of God. He describes God not as a distant, unreachable figure but as a best friend—someone who listens, who walks alongside you, and ultimately “walks you home.” Radhika Das also reflects on the “God-shaped hole” within us all, a void we instinctively try to fill with relationships, achievements, or material pleasures.The interview also touches on divine protection, how even in moments of personal loss, Radhika has felt guided and cared for. From there, the podcast turns to Vrindavan, a place Radhika describes with awe and tenderness. He explains how the sacred energy of the town makes every step feel like a dance, how the very atmosphere seems to breathe devotion, and why it continues to draw seekers from across the world.Humility becomes another key theme, as Radhika reflects on what he has learnt from the innocence of children, their honesty, vulnerability, and lack of ego. Radhika Das also speaks about the importance of making Bhakti accessible for today’s generation. Far from being rigid or old-fashioned, devotion can be expressed through music, community, conversation, and even the way we approach everyday challenges.The interview concludes with Radhika sharing his favourite verse from the Bhagavad Gita. For him, the Gita is not just a scripture but a guide for living, with each verse offering practical wisdom, emotional support, and spiritual clarity.(00:00) Episode begins(2:21) On Mumbai(3:03) How Radhika Das discovered Bhakti(3:55) Heartbreak leading to spirituality(4:10) Lessons from rock bottom(5:50) Grateful for Krishna’s guidance(6:35) Losing unsupportive friendships(8:12) The “God-shaped hole” within(8:40) Footprints in the sand story(9:35) Seeking God in times of crisis(10:17) Pain happens for you, not to you(12:02) Celebrities embracing Bhakti(13:02) Connecting a generation to Bhakti(14:35) Krishna as sweetness(15:40) Krishna walks with you(18:33) Feeling God through chanting(21:19) Choice shapes perception(23:59) Moments of choosing the Supreme(26:14) On Vrindavan(27:41) On Premanand Ji Maharaj(28:40) Using social media wisely(29:16) On Sincerity(30:55) Story of Gopal Patel(34:01) Balancing spirituality and responsibilities(36:12) Children teaching love and gratitude(37:37) Innocence of children(38:39) On Humility(42:05) On not passing faults to children(43:37) Dharma of raising children(45:22) Favourite verse from the Bhagavad Gita(47:11) On owning faults(48:55) Managing public life with consciousness(50:25) Focus on self, not changing the world(51:10) Do good anyway(52:06) Surdas story(54:05) What is love for Radhika Das?(55:50) What is love for Bani?(57:18) Names in his family(59:19) Being your true self(01:01:45) Krishna through Radha(01:07:01) Radhika Das singingFollow us: Instagram: / allabouteve_in Website: https://allabouteve.co.in/ | — | ||||||
| 7/18/25 | ![]() Why Young People Are Getting Heart Attacks | COVID, Stress, Gym Deaths | Dr Rahul Chandola | Bani Anand | AAE S4 | Heart attacks in the 30s and 40s used to be unheard of, so why are more and more young people dying of cardiac ailments now? In this episode of AfterHours with All About Eve, host Bani Anand is joined by Dr Rahul Chandola, one of India’s leading cardiothoracic surgeons, for a much-needed conversation around the epidemic of heart disease, particularly among young people.With over two decades of experience and more than 1,000 open-heart surgeries for underprivileged patients, Dr Chandola brings clarity, compassion, and hard facts to a topic often clouded by myths and misinformation.The Link Between COVID And Heart AttacksDr Chandola explains how individuals who had COVID are at a significantly higher risk of developing atherosclerosis (plaque formation in the arteries of the heart), with effects that can last up to 18 months. He also clears up common misconceptions around whether vaccines increase the risk of heart attacks.Stress, Lifestyle & Corporate Burnout:We examine the link between mental health and cardiac health. Why are high-performing, driven professionals more prone to heart attacks? Dr Chandola clarifies that it’s not ambition itself, but unmanaged stress and sedentary habits that pose the real danger.Preventive Heart Screenings for the Young:Should you have your heart screened before turning 40? If you have a family history, high stress levels, or chronic anxiety, the answer is a resounding YES.Nutrition Then vs Now:Are we eating our way to heart disease? Discover the stark difference between traditional Indian diets and today’s processed, packaged, and fried food culture. Dr Chandola also weighs in on the ongoing debate: vegetarianism vs non-vegetarianism, alcohol vs smoking—what truly harms your heart more?New-Age Medical Technology & Real-Time Heart Monitoring:Dr Chandola introduces us to cutting-edge wearable biosensors—like wireless ECG patches—that stream heart data to the cloud in real time. These innovations are poised to transform early detection, insurance structures, and personalised cardiac care.On Broken Heart Syndrome & Human Emotion:The episode concludes on a powerful note. Dr Chandola sheds light on Broken Heart Syndrome—a real cardiac condition caused by intense emotional trauma, such as the loss of a loved one.(00:00) Episode Begins(02:00) Explaining the rise in heart disease(03:27) What is atherogenesis?(05:25) How has nutrition changed over the years?(07:08) Are ambitious people more at risk?(08:35) Does COVID raise heart attack risk?(09:51) Did COVID vaccines lead to more heart issues?(11:40) Why are young people having heart attacks?(13:16) Early warning signs of a heart attack(15:55) Why are people getting heart attacks at the gym?(17:21) Should young people have heart check-ups?(18:31) Traditional diets vs modern nutrition(20:55) Smoking vs drinking – which is worse?(22:14) Is alcohol safe for heart health?(23:45) Vegetarian vs non-vegetarian – what’s better for the heart?(24:54) Latest technology for heart monitoring(33:13) How tech could affect insurance(34:13) Why Dr Chandola chooses to serve society(38:29) When doctors were seen as gods(39:53) The value of giving back(42:01) A heartbreaking story from a health camp(49:21) Connecting patients and donors(50:45) The state of healthcare in India(54:16) Thoughts on heart transplants(55:00) How organ donation works in India(58:02) His first heart transplant experience(58:51) On Grey’s Anatomy(01:00:21) Risks of self-medicating(01:04:45) How Dr Chandola unwinds AfterHours(01:06:25) What is Broken Heart Syndrome?Follow us: Instagram: / allabouteve_in Website: https://allabouteve.co.in/#heartattack #heartdisease #heartpatients #heartproblems #heartattackawareness #brokenheart #covid #covidvaccine #covid19 | — | ||||||
| 6/27/25 | ![]() From Neta App to Masters' Union: Pratham Mittal on Education, Business, Nitin Kamath & Elon Musk | In this thought-provoking episode of AfterHours with All About Eve, hosted by Bani Anand, entrepreneur Pratham Mittal opens up about his unique journey, his philosophy on work and life, and the hard-earned lessons that have shaped his career. Growing up in Jalandhar, surrounded by a community where entrepreneurship was part of his daily life, Pratham shares how early exposure to business conversations — from trading to profit-making — instilled in him a natural curiosity for building and innovating.The conversation delves into his key takeaways from building start-ups, including his experience with the Neta App — a platform designed to rate politicians, which taught him powerful lessons about behaviour change, technology, and the challenges of trying to bring accountability into India’s political landscape. He speaks candidly about the reality of seeing a promising idea struggle because it required too great a shift in people’s fundamental behaviours.Pratham also discusses the myth of product versus service businesses. He admits that, for years, he pursued the allure of product companies, believing service businesses were less scalable or impactful.Throughout the interview, Bani and Pratham delve into deeper questions: What percentage of success is due to luck, intelligence, hard work, or critical thinking? How do entrepreneurs create their own luck? And what is the balance between delusion and vision when attempting world-changing ideas like Elon Musk’s?Pratham also speaks passionately about education — his current area of focus through the Master's Union — and why he believes schools and universities need to shift from merely teaching and testing to genuinely nurturing young minds. In one of the most inspiring moments of the interview, Pratham shares his experience of meeting Zerodha’s Nithin Kamath — a reminder that humility is often a defining trait of the most successful people. He recalls how Nitin Kamath responded to a cold WhatsApp message, invited him for a meeting, and treated him with respect and genuine curiosity.The podcast also touches on privilege, failure, and the value of setbacks in developing resilience. Pratham reflects on how his time at boarding school and enduring difficult periods in business helped him build humility and self-awareness. They also discuss how everyone born with privilege should face at least one major setback to gain perspective on life.Finally, Pratham opens up about what gives his life meaning today — his commitment to transforming education, his nightly routines, and how he unwinds AfterHours. He shares what inspires him: the visionary leadership of figures such as Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who transformed Dubai from a struggling state into a global centre of progress and innovation.(00:00) Episode begins(3:14) Why he doesn’t work with his family(4:33) What Jalandhar taught him about business(7:18) Business ideas he wishes he’d thought of(9:07) Product vs service business(10:43) Hammerhead shark story(14:02) We crashed, and the delusion needed for success(16:00) Purpose of life and Elon Musk(17:57) The pressure of always being ‘on’(21:23) How much does luck matter?(23:14) Creating your own luck(24:27) What is critical thinking?(25:55) Lakshmi and Saraswati's story(29:29) His worst experience as an entrepreneur(35:34) How the Neta App was hacked(37:52) Boarding school grounding and a Bollywood actor’s story(41:40) How he ensures students are equipped for life(42:21) Why schools fail to nurture(46:39) Humility in success + Nithin Kamath story(49:20) ‘First builds it, second grows it, third loses it’(52:47) Business family vs family business(55:14) On being detached(58:12) Outgrowing parents as an entrepreneur(58:39) On heroes and role models(1:06:33) How he unwinds AfterHoursFollow us: Instagram: / allabouteve_in Facebook: / allaboutevein Pinterest: / allabouteve_in Website: https://allabouteve.co.in/ | — | ||||||
| 5/30/25 | ![]() Directing Sonam Kapoor, Sushmita Sen, And Kartik Aaryan's Hits | Ram Madhvani | Bani Anand | AAE S4 | Acclaimed filmmaker Ram Madhvani, creator of Aarya, joins Bani Anand on AfterHours Season 4, powered by Catch, for a candid and heartfelt conversation on storytelling, resilience, and the evolving landscape of cinema.Directing Sushmita Sen in AaryaHe begins by recounting the emotional rollercoaster behind Aarya—originally conceived as a film nearly a decade ago, only to fall apart just weeks before filming. With disarming humour, Ram recalls “scheduling” 24 hours of crying and finding comfort in Bengali sweets. Yet from that setback emerged a reimagined series, elevated by the casting of Sushmita Sen, whom he describes not as a choice but a “gift.” Her fearless return to the screen aligned perfectly with Madhvani’s immersive “System 360” style, which eliminates cues like “action” and “cut” to allow truth to unfold on screen. Moments such as the Holi sequence in Aarya Season 2—shot in under two hours with minimal interference—are testaments to his philosophy: don’t cut life, capture it.Reflecting on his roots in advertising, Madhvani describes it as his daily “riyaaz”, or practice—a foundation that shaped his instinctive, long-take approach to filmmaking. He shares that while cinema isn’t dying, it is evolving. Audiences are changing how they watch, and that’s not something to mourn—but something to adapt to.Working on Neerja with Sonam KapoorHis partnership with Sonam Kapoor on Neerja becomes a touchstone in the conversation. Stripping away glamour, Sonam surrendered herself to the role with emotional intelligence and precision. A scene where her character eats a chocolate biscuit—a moment inspired by Kieślowski’s Blue—was nearly missed in the intensity of the moment, until Sonam gently reminded him.Directing Kartik Aaryan and shooting a film in 10 daysRam also discusses the high-stakes thriller Dhamaka, starring Kartik Aaryan, where he pushed the boundaries of format and process. Shot in just 10 days during the pandemic, the film became a case study in controlled chaos and creative innovation. He credits Kartik for his commitment to a demanding shoot schedule and for trusting a director who chooses long takes and spiritual surrender over rigid control.In an age dominated by likes, views, and constant feedback, Ram Madhvani emphasises the danger of outsourcing one’s worth to external validation. “I’m in the business of rejection,” he says with blunt clarity—and to survive, artists must learn “how to wear a condom on their soul.” It’s a striking metaphor that speaks to the emotional shielding required to remain open without being destroyed by vulnerability. Instead of turning to escapism through alcohol or distraction, Ram shares his quiet ritual of decompression.Timestamps(00:00) Episode starts(01:24) When Aarya got cancelled(03:49) Casting Sushmita Sen(07:15) Is cinema dying?(09:56) Why we need tragic heroes(11:47) “Talent should be taken for granted” (12:36) Ram Madhvani’s filmmaking process(16:58) “I’m an actor’s director”(19:14) Maximum takes he’s done for a scene(21:00) Behind Aarya’s Holi scene(23:30) OTT vs cinema(25:48) Challenges in women-led action films(26:56) On Sushmita Sen – “Your Majesty”(27:48) On Sonam Kapoor(29:33) Breaking down a scene from Neerja(32:23) Representing women on screen(34:32) Shabana Azmi as Neerja’s mother(36:02) Should stories have moral responsibility?(41:47) Making a film on validation(42:41) “What’s your worth?”(46:02) On Kartik Aaryan(49:18) Is Kartik Aaryan the next big thing?(50:48) Cinema and virtual reality(52:19) “I don’t want cinema to die”(58:29) “I use just 3% of what I shoot”(01:00:10) Editing for social media?(01:04:24) How Ram Madhvani unwinds AfterHours(01:07:34) On his wife, Amita(01:09:17) GameFollow us: Instagram: / allabouteve_in Facebook: / allaboutevein Pinterest: / allabouteve_in Website: https://allabouteve.co.in/#aarya #neerja #sushmitasen #kartikaaryan #dhamaka #bollywood #interview #podcast | — | ||||||
| 4/18/25 | ![]() Why Girls Don't Inherit Property in India | Property Disputes Explained | Geeta Luthra | Bani Anand | Do you have a right to inherit your parents' property even if they will it to someone else? If you are involved in a property dispute, do you know your rights fully? Do you need to make a will, and if you do, what is the right time to make one?In this powerful and deeply insightful episode of AfterHours Season 4, Bani Anand sits down with senior advocate Geeta Luthra to unravel the complex legal web of Indian succession law.What happens when a brother refuses to share ancestral property with his sisters? Can daughters claim their lawful share, especially if there’s no will? What if a property is solely in one family member’s name? Who inherits assets if a couple has no children? Geeta Luthra addresses these real-life dilemmas with both compassion and clarity, offering not just legal understanding but also deep social context.We unpack the difference between self-acquired and ancestral property, the rights of women under the Hindu Succession Act, and how gendered traditions and outdated patriarchal assumptions continue to shape property decisions—even after legislative reforms. From urban households to tribal communities, this podcast sheds light on how deeply systemic these disparities are. Despite legal provisions, tribal women still own just 16% of land in India—a stark indicator of the inequality that prevails.Advocate Geeta Luthra shares compelling stories of how inheritance can turn toxic—manipulation, isolation of ageing parents, and unequal control over property. She explores how lifetime gifts can backfire, why “equal” isn’t always “fair,” and how transparency doesn’t guarantee harmony. The interview also delves into stamp duties, court fees, and limitation periods—the hidden costs that often discourage people from pursuing their rightful claims. The law may appear illogical or intimidating, but understanding it is the first step towards empowerment.We also explore what happens when parents decide to leave everything to one child and how these decisions can lead to lifelong resentment, conflict, or even legal battles. When couples have no children, we examine who inherits the assets—whether it’s nieces, nephews, friends, or even domestic staff—and how to ensure those choices are respected legally.From the landmark Vineeta Sharma case to property disputes where women are branded as witches or excommunicated for marrying outside their caste or tribe, this episode highlights the intersection of caste, gender, and law. Is a daughter’s claim a matter of greed or rightful inheritance? Should emotional bonds override legal rights? This conversation doesn’t shy away from difficult questions. Instead, it offers a window into the evolving dynamics of Indian families—and the ways in which law, tradition, and power continue to collide.(00:00) Episode begins(2:40) Most common cause of property disputes(7:50) How property disputes ruin relationships(11:37) Can a child insist on a property gift from parents?(14:39) Why transparency in property distribution matters(19:25) When should you write a will?(21:06) Is it necessary to register a will?(26:21) Can a registered will be challenged?(31:48) Not giving property to daughters(38:11) Is the Succession Act biased against women?(44:00) Tribal succession laws(48:03) Women’s rights under the Hindu Succession Act(51:21) Can a will be challenged years after shares are taken?(56:13) Do handwritten notes count as a will?(58:19) When is the right time to make a will?(59:46) How Geeta Luthra unwinds AfterHoursFollow us: Instagram: / allabouteve_in Facebook: / allaboutevein Pinterest: / allabouteve_in Website: https://allabouteve.co.in/#law #lawyer #inheritance #will #legaladvice #legal #legaleducation #propertydispute #womenrights #propertylaw #laws #interview #podcast | — | ||||||
| 4/14/25 | ![]() Joseph Radhik On Clicking Virat-Anushka, Priyanka-Nick, Ambani Weddings & More | Bani Anand | AAE S4 | In this episode of AfterHours with All About Eve Season 4 powered by Pulse Golmol, Bani Anand interviews acclaimed wedding photographer Joseph Radhik. From Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas, Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, and many more, Joseph is the photographer India's biggest celebrities want for their wedding. What began as a goal to shoot for 100 days a year soon turned into high-profile assignments, including Allu Arjun’s wedding and a major event in Bali. A highlight is his reflection on capturing a candid moment between Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma—a reminder that real emotions cannot be staged.Joseph prefers a documentary style—even for celebrity weddings like Virat-Anushka or Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal—aspiring to become the “Raghu Rai of weddings.” He values trust deeply and often signs NDAs (non-disclosure agreements) which is why we see a limited set of pictures online from Bollywood celebrity weddings.He reflects on the discreet lives of India’s ultra-wealthy, contrasting them with the rare public spectacle of Radhika Merchant and Anant Ambani's wedding.In this podcast, Joseph Radhik emphasises that true joy often lies in simple, quiet moments—a father’s proud glance, a grandmother sipping champagne.During the interview, he critiques the rise of social media pressure, where brides—particularly influencers—prioritise fast content over meaningful storytelling. He underscores that Indian weddings are more than a couple’s story—they are cultural milestones centred around family. Comparing celebrity and non-celebrity weddings, Joseph notes that while all have public and private moments, grounded stars carefully curate what they share. He cites Saif and Kareena’s single iconic portrait and Virat and Anushka’s intimate yet selective sharing as examples of this balance.He shares a funny moment from Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’s wedding—he only realised that Nick was a singer when the Jonas Brothers performed. To stay balanced, he prioritises sleep and relies on his seasoned 15-member team at 'Stories'. With a shared style, they cover 35–40 weddings a year, allowing Joseph to focus on key moments while delegating the rest.He debunks the myth that candid photography is new, stressing that emotion, not perfection, is what drives timeless images. One favourite candid? An unplanned moment of Anant and Radhika being lifted by friends mid-celebration.(00:00) Episode begins(01:47) Being one of India’s top photographers (06:21) Why Joseph shoots only 10–15 weddings a year (11:10) Clients asking for photo replicas (14:30) “I have one of the best jobs at a wedding” (17:05) Moment vs. photo quality (19:19) Role of relationships in business (23:01) Dealing with drunk guests (23:45) What makes a great wedding photo (29:09) Meaningful photos vs. flashy creativity (31:29) Signing NDAs for weddings (33:26) On Radhika & Anant Ambani's wedding (34:40) On privilege (36:21) Opulence becoming invisible (38:34) Two must-have wedding shots (41:26) Social media delivery pressure (43:22) India’s wedding obsession (45:36) India vs. West: wedding photography (47:16) Sangeet and the dance obsession (51:49) Celebrity vs. regular weddings (54:41) Working with wife Devika Narain(57:12) First come, first serve clients (01:01:41) Wedding fails & what happened at Priyanka & Nick’s wedding (01:06:22) Grooms & photo consciousness (01:07:03) Managing sleep during shoots (01:09:36) Candid moments in Indian weddings (01:10:47) Capturing key moments like Varmala (01:13:03) Creatives and imperfection (01:13:28) How Joseph Radhik unwinds (01:15:49) Working with his wife (01:19:24) Game: Golmol or Not?Follow us: Instagram: / allabouteve_in Facebook: / allaboutevein #viratandanushka #priyankachopra #ambani #ambaniwedding #weddingphotography #viratkohli #anushkasharma #interview #podcast #anantambani #nickjonas #c | — | ||||||
| 3/15/25 | ![]() Nayab Midha on Poetry, Love, Marriage, Feminism, Relationships & Social Media | Bani Anand | AAE S4 | In this deeply personal and thought-provoking episode of AfterHours with All About Eve, Bani Anand sits down with poet Nayab Midha for an unfiltered conversation on poetry, privilege, self-acceptance, and the harsh realities of social media. Nayab opens up about her journey—the highs, the lows, and the privileges that come with success. She beautifully articulates how poetry is about emotion and relatability, not power. As the conversation unfolds, Nayab discusses 'Muskurao', a poem that resonated deeply by challenging society’s perception of failure. She shares how poetry became an act of unlearning, breaking free from academic expectations and embracing storytelling. The podcast shifts to self-love and beauty standards as Nayab recites 'Tum Khubsurat Ho', a poem urging people to embrace their flaws. From being shamed for her curly hair and husky voice to finding confidence in her uniqueness, she credits her mother for teaching her resilience and empathy. But with recognition comes vulnerability. Nayab recalls how her deeply personal poem Papa Perfectionist Hai was reduced to a meme, sparking hate and trolling. Bani and Nayab explore gender roles and societal conditioning. Nayab shares a moment from the pandemic when her brother, frustrated with household chores, used "feminist" as an insult. The discussion expands into relationships and the red flags that are often ignored. Nayab examines how generational shifts have shaped women’s roles—grandmothers were confined to their homes, mothers balanced both worlds, and today’s women challenge gendered expectations. She critiques how men are raised to chase success, while women are conditioned to see marriage as their ultimate goal, creating an imbalance in how both perceive freedom—a theme she explores in her show Rajkumari. Nayab reflects on love and emotional security, admitting she once tested her partner’s patience, knowing that once deeply in love, leaving becomes harder. She confesses that she worried whether earning more than her partner would create tension, but the biggest green flag? Nothing makes him insecure. The interview moves to the three things Nayab would never give up in love—her self-respect, dreams, and rights. The episode concludes on a playful yet insightful note with "What’s the Catch?", where Nayab deciphers hidden relationship red flags—partners who subtly undermine ambition or remain silent in front of family.

The podcast begins with a warm welcome and quickly transitions to Saqib’s new project, 'Kakuda'. With Saqib reassuring Bani that 'Kakuda' leans more towards laughter than scares, they fondly recall classic horror shows like Zee Horror Show and Ram Gopal Varma's 'Raat', which took Saqib over a decade to finish due to its intensity! One of the episode’s highlights is when Bani addresses the question fans have long been curious about - why Saqib and Huma go by different last names. Saqib reflects on his unexpected journey to Bollywood, which began with a phone call from an ex-girlfriend asking him to move to Mumbai. Despite that relationship not lasting, his drive to prove himself fuelled his desire to carve his own path in the industry. The interview then moves to Saqib's initial years in Mumbai, including a hilarious yet slightly tragic first advertisement shoot, which led him to call up friends and family to watch his debut. Little did he know that he would be relegated to the background. Saqib also reflects on his film journey, from playing the charming young college boy in 'Mere Dad Ki Maruti' to his transformative experience working with Karan Johar in 'Bombay Talkies', where he embraced a complex role alongside Bollywood stalwarts like Rani Mukherjee. One of the podcast’s highlights is Saqib’s experience working on '83', where he brought Mohinder Amarnath's story to life. His love for cricket shines through as he shares his journey from state-level player to landing a pivotal role, emphasising the importance of pitching oneself in a competitive industry. The film fostered genuine friendships with the cast and fulfilled his childhood dreams of cricket, leaving a lasting impact despite a challenging release during the pandemic. He also reflects on his dual experiences with 'Race 3', noting the highs of shooting and the lows of self-expectation. Saqib humorously recounts his unexpected connection to the iconic meme "Our business is our business. None of your business."

| 11/3/24 | ![]() Ravi Kishan on Politics, Ratan Tata, Laapataa Ladies and Singham Again | Bani Anand | AAE S3 | In this episode of AfterHours with All About Eve, host Bani Anand engages in an honest conversation with actor and politician Ravi Kishan. Bani expresses her excitement for Ravi’s film 'Laapata Ladies', which is headed to the Oscars. Ravi humbly thanks her and shares his appreciation for the podcast. The conversation explores Ravi’s inspiring journey from humble beginnings. Bani asks about a time when he could only afford vada pav, highlighting how far he’s come. Ravi credits his father, a priest, as his guiding light and reflects on his struggles as some of the best days of his life, emphasising how these hardships shaped him into the person he is today, teaching him perseverance and honesty. When asked if he ever considered giving up, Ravi admits having low moments but shares how his belief in hard work and persistence kept him going. He shares a powerful message: "You should always wait for the morning." Despite seeing friends like Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn succeed before him, Ravi remained true to his path. His unwavering faith in Shiva and meditation helped him stay strong while waiting for his moment. Ravi also shares exclusive news about his upcoming roles, revealing he will play the Home Minister in 'Singham Again,' a role he’s announcing for the first time. He will also take on a character previously portrayed by Sanjay Dutt in 'Son of Sardaar 2' and confirm that season 2 of his Netflix series 'Maamla Legal Hai' is in production. He expresses gratitude to director Rahul Pandey and Netflix for how the show has resonated with young audiences. The conversation takes an emotional turn when Bani asks about a video showing Ravi crying at the screening of 'Laapata Ladies'. As a father of daughters, the film deeply moved him. He reflects on how society often asks sons about their ambitions while overlooking daughters, praising director Kiran Rao for addressing this sensitive topic. The discussion shifts to loneliness, with Ravi expressing that life can feel lonely, even in the company of friends or a partner. He encourages living fully in the present and cites Ratan Tata as an example of making a positive impact on the world. Recalling his early days in Mumbai, he humorously shares his dream of having a car, a driver, and living in a high-rise. Despite his humble beginnings, his ambition to be number one—whether in cinema or politics—never wavered. Bani brings up Ravi’s famous dialogue, "Zindagi jhand ba, phir bhi ghamand ba." He explains that it reflects his determination to maintain self-respect and resilience in the face of struggles. No matter how tough the times were, Ravi always held his head high. In closing, Ravi speaks about his desire to support young talent in the arts, using his daughter Ishita Shukla, an army officer and shooter, as an example. He expresses pride in her achievements and hopes to inspire the next generation. Ravi ends the podcast with a powerful statement: “The future belongs to women, and that we would soon be living in a ‘woman’s world.’” This episode is filled with inspiration, personal insights, and Ravi’s firm belief in hard work, resilience, and the growing power of women.

| 10/14/24 | ![]() Birth Control Pills Are Safe?! | Dr Kapadia on IVF, Egg Freezing & PCO | Bani Anand | AAE S3 | In this episode of AfterHours with All About Eve, host Bani Anand engages in an intimate conversation with her friend, renowned gynaecologist Dr Munjaal Kapadia. The discussion transcends typical medical topics as Bani shares her personal journey of freezing her eggs — a subject often clouded by societal expectations and misinformation. During the podcast, Dr Kapadia demystifies the egg freezing process, explaining its significance in empowering women to make decisions based on personal timelines rather than societal pressure. While discussing the best age to freeze eggs, he notes that there is no one-size-fits-all answer, though earlier is generally better for optimal results. He elaborates on the initial consultations, including medical tests like AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) levels and ultrasound evaluations, which assess a woman’s fertility. The conversation also highlights the importance of sperm quality, which Dr Kapadia asserts is equally vital as egg quality in conception. Dr Kapadia provides insights into the egg retrieval process, explaining the hormone injections designed to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. He reassures listeners that, even though the process can be uncomfortable, it is manageable with proper medical guidance. A significant focus of the conversation is on IVF. Dr Kapadia outlines the meticulous process from egg retrieval to embryo implantation, explaining how fertilised eggs are monitored for viability. He candidly discusses the general success rates of IVF, revealing that healthy eggs and sperm can yield success rates between 35% and 60%. Dr Kapadia also discusses the role of PCOD, detailing how it can affect fertility and the importance of tailored healthcare. He encourages women to understand their bodies and seek specialist guidance to assess their hormonal health and egg reserves. The interview explores why Dr Kapadia supports oral contraceptives. He emphasises personalised approaches, encouraging those who experience side effects to explore alternatives. While effective in monogamous relationships, oral contraceptives do not protect against STDs and should not replace emergency contraception. He acknowledges their role in empowering women and advocates for open communication with healthcare providers to ensure tailored contraceptive choices. As the podcast draws to a close, Bani asks Dr Kapadia about abortion. He praises India's progressive abortion laws that empower women. He reassures listeners that safe procedures usually do not affect future fertility and encourages women to consult gynaecologists. He also expresses optimism for societal change through increasing female empowerment and education.
