This conversation with Aditi Rao Hydari was powerful, honest, and long overdue! We talked about what it really means to tell women’s stories… and why it’s still considered a risk. From working on Heeramandi (which I loved!) to navigating gender imbalances on set, Aditi opens up about the quiet challenges women face in the industry, even after delivering a hit show.
If you’ve ever felt like your strength was misunderstood or your success wasn’t enough… this one’s for you.
