Hi Friends!
This week’s episode is all about movies, and Raj focuses on tribute films that are dedicated to real-life story-telling.
In ‘Open Chest Exclusive’, Raj chats with Bollywood actress Vidya Balan about her latest film Mission Mangal, which showcases the story of India’s incredible mission to Mars and the impact of the roles of the women scientists who helped to make the mission a success. Balan also speaks to Raj about the role of women in India today and whether they can have it all or if that’s still a far fetched dream. The film releases on India’s Independence Day, August 15th. Take your family! It headlines Akshay Kumar!
In ‘Open Chest Vault’, Raj bring her listeners a conversation that she had a couple of years ago with Canadian filmmaker Arshad Khan about his essay film Abu, which documents his relationship with his late father, as well as his own identity as a Pakistani, Canadian, gay man.
