    Ali Fazal Gets Brutally Honest About Acting, Failure & Success | Live at Jashn-e-Rekhta

    Ali Fazal comes to Jashn-e-Rekhta for a warm, candid, and deeply reflective conversation on cinema, Urdu, poetry, ambition, and the stories that shaped him. Opening with a nazm, Ali moves from the grace of Lucknow’s tehzeeb to his childhood memories of films, books, and language. He speaks about being born in Delhi and raised in Lucknow, the influence of his mother, his early connection with theatre and Shakespeare at Doon, and the difficult years that taught him fearlessness. The conversation also traces his journey from Bollywood to Hollywood, including Victoria and Abdul, Death on the Nile, and his work as a producer with Pushing Buttons Studios. Ali reflects on craft, ambition, plagiarism versus inspiration, Urdu pronunciation in cinema, the responsibility of artists, and why he still feels he has not “arrived.” From personal memories to sharp industry observations, this session brings together cinema, literature, language, and a rare honesty that stays with you long after the conversation ends.

    Piyush Mishra Unfiltered: Gen Z Love, Alcoholism, Art & Music

    Piyush Mishra brings his full self to this live Jashn-e-Rekhta session, sharp humour, raw memories, music, poetry, and the kind of honesty that refuses to sound rehearsed. In this conversation, he opens up about love, heartbreak, and why today’s fast-moving Gen Z relationships often miss the patience and depth of old-school romance. He speaks about acting as imagination, not just technique, and shares hard-earned truths from his early Mumbai days, when survival, writing, theatre, and cinema were all part of the same struggle. The discussion moves from NSD and the myth of instant fame to the emotional cost of chasing art in a city like Mumbai. Piyush Mishra reflects on guilt, ego, Vipassana, alcoholism, truth, and the personal battles that shaped his voice as an artist. He also recalls Anurag Kashyap, Kay Kay Menon, and the creative integrity behind Black Friday. Alongside the conversation, the session carries powerful musical moments and memories connected to Ek Bagal Mein Chand Hoga, Aarambh Hai Prachand, and Husna. From Bhagat Singh and Faiz Ahmad Faiz to Partition pain and the loneliness of the artist, this episode is a rare mix of laughter, confession, music, and literary fire. Listen to Piyush Mishra at his most unfiltered, poetic, funny, wounded, and alive.

    Why Javed Akhtar Says Secularism Should Feel Like Oxygen | Live at Jashn-e-Rekhta

    Javed Akhtar joins Saif Mahmood for a thoughtful and deeply relevant conversation on Urdu, secularism, language politics, and the cultural history of India. In this live session, they unpack how Hindi and Urdu grew from the same soil, sharing the same streets, emotions, and literary traditions long before politics tried to divide them. Javed Akhtar speaks candidly about why languages should never be tied to religion, and why Urdu belongs as much to India’s cultural identity as Hindi does. He reflects on how younger audiences are rediscovering Urdu poetry through Devanagari script, even while traditional Urdu writing slowly declines. One of the most powerful moments of the discussion comes when he explains secularism in the simplest possible way. Not as a slogan, not as performance, but as something natural and essential, “like oxygen.” The conversation moves through literature, identity, public discourse, coexistence, and the emotional connection people still carry with language across generations.

    Nawazuddin Siddiqui & Nandita Das on Becoming Manto | Live at Jashn-e-Rekhta

    Saadat Hasan Manto was not a writer who allowed anyone to stay comfortable. In this powerful conversation from Jashn-e-Rekhta, filmmaker Nandita Das and actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui join RJ Sayema to speak about bringing Manto’s life, mind and contradictions to the screen. Nawazuddin reflects on playing Manto and the strange after-effect of carrying his honesty into real life. Nandita Das explains why the film stays rooted in the years around Partition, from 1946 to 1950, and how Manto’s questions around identity, religion, nationalism, women and censorship continue to feel unsettlingly current. The conversation also goes behind the scenes of recreating 1940s Lahore, holding a creative line, and understanding Manto’s writing as something plain, sharp and impossible to ignore. For anyone interested in Urdu literature, cinema, Partition stories, or the life of Saadat Hasan Manto, this is a rare and deeply revealing listen.

    Saba Qamar & Imran Abbas Speak | Is Urdu Disappearing from Films?..Live at Jashn-e-Rekhta

    What happens when two of South Asia’s most loved actors speak about Urdu, not as a language of nostalgia, but as a living part of performance, memory, and identity? In this rare conversation from Jashn-e-Rekhta Dubai, Saba Qamar and Imran Abbas join Adeel Hashmi for a deeply honest discussion on Urdu, cinema, acting, and the changing sound of storytelling. They speak about the sanctity of words, the discipline of pronunciation, and why language can completely change the emotional weight of a scene. Imran Abbas shares how his command over Urdu became a strength across India and Pakistan, while Saba Qamar reflects on performance, vulnerability, and the beauty of leaving some emotions unfinished on screen. Together, they explore why many young actors are drifting away from linguistic depth, and what that means for films, dramas, and culture at large. The conversation also looks at how OTT platforms and newer writing styles have shifted dialogue from poetic expression to everyday realism. But is that evolution, or are we losing something precious?
