Hello There! I am Shaan Nair and this is my first attempt at a podcast and I call it 'Blij Talks'. Most of you must be wondering "what does it mean"? Well, 'Blij' means happy in Dutch; so when put together it literary translates to happy talks. 'Dude, you are Indian, you learn Spanish but why Dutch?' Dutch like that. Bro! Focus on the point.
And the point is, that we need to be motivated, learn from everything around us and be happy at the end of the day. And that’s why I am here to learn and share motivational journeys of some awesome people just like all of us and as well as talk about my own learnings and my own journey. I look forward to seeing you listening to this podcast and find it interesting and I seriously hope it motivates you with these different experiences. And most importantly - bring a smile to your face and JOU BLIJ MAKEN!

In conversation with Happy Fooling You "The Skill of Spreading Joy"
I always say that there are many amazing people with normal lives but they have their own extraordinary stories. In this episode, I talk to and share experiences with retired Lieutenant Commander of the Indian Navy, Mr Pravin Tulpule. After seeking voluntary retirement from the fine service of the Indian Navy, Pravin Tulpule, a President's Gold Medal awardee, chose to become a Clown to spread happiness and joy amongst those who are deprived of the same. And then and there Happy, the Clown was born…. to meet, entertain and spread good cheer amongst patients in hospitals, children in Orphanages/ shelters and the senior citizens at the Old Age homes. He has been the "Happiness Ambassador" of a reputed Multi-National Chain. He was engaged in spreading goodwill and trust through "value-based edutainment" capsules across the length and breadth of India. The MNC (confidential) had put their Brand on his trustworthy shoulders for over twenty years. In this episode, Mr Pravin Tulpule discusses his views on happiness and how to share happiness and his motivation and journey from the Indian Navy to becoming a clown.
