• Probal Dasgupta with Hrishi K - Max City Litfest 2026 11.04.2026 27m

  Probal discussed the upcoming Max City VOW Literature Festival, explaining that its purpose is to celebrate diverse voices and ideas in Mumbai, which he described as India's gateway to the world. He outlined the festival's theme "One World, Many Words," which aims to provide a platform for different perspectives on global issues, including conflicts, gender, and environmental concerns. Probal emphasized the importance of engaging and embracing diverse opinions rather than shaping a single opinion. The festival will take place on March 28-29 at the National Gallery of Modern Art in Mumbai, with a schedule available on the Maxcity Lit Fest Instagram handle. Lit Fest Structure and Planning Probal explained the structure of the upcoming Lit Fest, highlighting two main sessions: a welcome session focused on contemporary issues and non-fiction works, and a panel discussion on the West Asia war, which has been rescheduled to day two due to rapidly changing circumstances. The West Asia panel will explore the direction of the conflict and its implications for India, featuring panelists Ambassador TCA Raghavan and Menaz Merchant. Hrishi announced that Homi Bhabha State University will also serve as a venue for the festival this year, and mentioned Probal's book "General Brass Tacks" which will be featured in a session titled "Five Assassinations and an Arms Deal." General Sundarji's Life and History Probal discussed his upcoming panel on General Sundarji's life and the 1980s, highlighting key events including political assassinations and an arms deal. He explained how he discovered that Sundarji's life parallelled India's post-independence history, revealing new details through research such as Sundarji's presence at Mahatma Gandhi's funeral and raising the tricolor in Pakistan on Independence Day 1947. Probal described the writing process as revealing more about Sundarji's life than initially expected, transforming the book from focusing solely on the 1980s to telling a broader story of India's history through Sundarji's perspective. Operation Brass Stacks Military Exercise Probal discussed his book "Operation Brass Stacks," which details a significant military exercise from the 1980s that was four times larger than NATO exercises and the biggest mobilization since World War II. He explained that the operation, led by General Sundarji, aimed to defend India's borders while launching strikes into Pakistani territory to target nuclear facilities. Probal noted that these important historical events are often overlooked in India due to military history not being widely popular outside military circles, and he sought to "de-jargonize" the story to make it more accessible to the general public. General Sundarji Book Discussion Probal Dasgupta discussed his book on General Sundarji, describing him as India's most important military strategist who influenced both military and political decisions in the 1980s. He explained how writing the book involved personal excavation of memories from growing up in the 1980s, including events like Operation Blue Star and the Sri Lankan campaign. Probal also promoted the upcoming Max City Lit Fest in Mumbai on March 28-29, highlighting various panels and speakers including Amish Tripathi and other notable authors. “The HrishiKay Sessions” are produced & presented by Hrishikesh Kannan popularly known as Hrishi K Thanks for listening.

  Gaurav Banerjee has always impressed me with his eloquence at press conferences & trailer launches. considering the terrific year that disney plus hotstar have had in terms of content i simply had to get him in for an interview. he is passionate about animation as.a category and a big believer in creating a robust multilingual content catalog. the respect he has for cinema and series' emanating out of the southern states is also something i found very heartening. unscripted content like `big boss` & `koffee with karan` plus thrilling original series like `special ops` & `lootere` get him going and his team and him have made it the cornerstones of their sucess story. i loved that he gave some time to sport - in particular football & this years t20 world cup in the US plus the `Marvel` catalogue and international titles and series that gen z is tripping on. gauravs nostalgia at having studied radio as part of his post graduate film and communications course was apparent the moment he walked into studio and soaked in the ambience! happy listening. “The HrishiKay Sessions” are produced & presented by Hrishikesh Kannan popularly known as Hrishi K Thanks for listening.

• Mohit Raina, Anupam Kher & Neeraj Pandey With Hrishi K - The Freelancer On Disney Plus HS 06.09.2023 17m

  neeraj pandey has an entire industry full of actors and i suspect that includes a fair share of actors from abroad too - who are ever willing to work with him. his grasp of the action, thriller drama is unprecedented in the modern era. as anupam kher and me joked - all the actors walk with a lilt, a certain brisk pace in a neeraj pandey film. his protegie bhav dhulia who directed the netflix series `khakee` directs this one but neerajs watchful eye as creator & showrunner is stamped all over `the freelancer` the series on disney plus hotstar. mohit raina is terrific as a wasted cop turned mercenary who has a renewed mission in life. kashmira pardeshi is the surprise as the girl who is house imprisoned in syria by the family thats shes married into. anupam kher is so at ease as a regular collaborator in a pandey franchise that hes effortless as analyst khan. i loved the furious pace of it and if international terror and espionage and action thrillers is ur thing this is manna from heaven for you. exotic mediterranean and european locales thrown in for equal measure and some dynamic, slick international quality action choreography. bravo neeraj and team. now enjoy my indepth interview with mohit, neeraj and mr kher! “The HrishiKay Sessions” are produced & presented by Hrishikesh Kannan popularly known as Hrishi K Thanks for listening.
