Pollution levels are touching 1000 and political parties blaming each other in the maxican standoff. I sat down with Nitin to understand why and how our cities became the world’s worst where fresh air became an exclusive experience. He breaks it down with so many interesting and fresh angles that it cleared up my thoughts. Tune in to understand what’s really going on—and whether there’s any hope left for cleaner air in our increasingly dystopian cities.

In this episode, I sit down with Pratyush, who runs a cozy cafe in the mountains of Bir, Himachal Pradesh. The discussion was about coffee but went far beyond that. We share a strange tale of a man in the mountains who believes he’s a rabbit, uncover why someone cried after their first sip of coffee, and explore the many surprising human stories born out of coffee.

Today on AMV, our guest is Sarvjeet Tamta—a self-taught qawwali singer who founded Rehmete Nusrat. At 16, he left Almora, Uttarakhand, to follow his passion for music. Coming from a Dalit background, Sarvjeet faced caste discrimination, but he didn’t let it stop him. Now, he’s performing to full houses across the country, making a name as one of the most promising qawwals of this era.
