More Than Sad Songs -The Art of The Ghazal
What do you get when you mix poetry, heartbreak, and dosa? A delicious deep dive into the world of the ghazal!Often mistaken for sad Urdu songs, ghazals are actually centuries-old poetic forms with roots in Arabic and Persian traditions. This episode explores how ghazals evolved from expressions of flirtation and divine longing into intricate verse structures that travelled across languages and continents.The hosts break down the anatomy of a ghazal — from the matla (opening couplet) to the makta (closing couplet) and the poet’s takhallus (pen name). A playful group composition about dosa and...

Shakti x Bhakti - The Fearless Women Poets of India
Across centuries, Bhakti poetry has resonated through temples, streets, and the hearts of millions. But among these voices, some rise with a quiet defiance—those of women. In an era of rigid hierarchies, they dared to sing of love, liberation, and equality. Their devotional poetry, delicate yet resolute, were not mere expressions of piety but declarations of justice.From Akka Mahadevi’s ascetic surrender to Mirabai’s unwavering defiance, from Sule Sankavva’s fearless faith to Janabai’s poetry of self-worth, these extraordinary women carved a space for themselves in a world that sought to silence them. Their word...

Ghalib Explained: 3 Poems On Reality and Existence
Mirza Ghalib, one of Urdu’s greatest poets, masterfully wove metaphysical reflections into his verse, questioning the nature of reality, existence, and perception. On the occasion of his 156th death anniversary, we revisit his poetry through a selection of verses from Yun Hota Toh Kya Hota: The World of Ghalib, a six-part series presented by Amit Basole, a poetry aficionado and faculty in economics at Azim Premji University. Ghalib’s poetry often challenges our understanding of the visible and the hidden, suggesting that what appears before us may, in fact, conceal a deeper truth. One of his celebrated verses plays with...

Unboxed - Mango People with Sharmadip Basu | Radio Azim Premji University
Did you know that Indian Yellow, the pigment with which Vincent Van Gogh painted the luminous moon in his masterpiece Starry Night, was prepared from the dried urine of cows fed exclusively on mango leaves? Or that India, despite being the world’s largest producer of mangoes, exports less than 1% because Indians can never be done eating their produce? Or that we may be throwing away the most nutritious and medically valuable part of the mango — its seed? The mango is undeniably the king of fruits, evoking passions that span literature, diplomacy, botany, agriculture, and economics. It is a fruit that...

The Path To Pandharpur | Bhakti Republic with Amit Basole Ep 4
The distinguished anthropologist Irawati Karwe wrote, “I found a new definition of Maharashtra: the land whose people go to Pandharpur for pilgrimage.” Pandharpur, near the city of Solapur, is a sacrosanct destination for the Varkari path within Hinduism, centred around the worship of the deity Vitthal or Vithoba, a form of Vishnu. The Varkaris are a part of the Bhakti movement, a spiritual tradition characterised by the immersive loving worship of a chosen deity. The word ‘Varkari’ means “one who performs the vari”— vari in Marathi refers to the annual 21-day pilgrimage to Pandharpur, which devotees of Vitthal perform as an expression...

Kayakave Kailasa
Emerging in 12th-century Karnataka, Vachana Sahitya gave voice to the Sharana movement. The Sharanas were ardent devotees of Shiva, spreading their message through vachanas, verses composed and sung in simple Kannada, which were infused with profound thought. They advocated social equality and rejected caste, challenging Sanskrit dominance and the prevailing literary and social norms. Many of the Sharana poets came from marginalised groups. Their vachanas criticised rituals and hierarchies, emphasising a personal connection with the divine.While saints like Basavanna, Allama Prabhu, and Akka Mahadevi are the most prominent names of the movement, the tradition was equally...

Kathauti Mein Ganga
We journey to the ancient, timeless city of Varanasi, its ghats washed by the river Ganga, to find ourselves enmeshed in the warp and weft of Kabir’s verse. Kabir the weaver venerates the Almighty without question, but equally, he scorns the hollowness of rituals in society that clutter the path to this sacred union. His poetry is simple and accessible, yet pungent with wit and incisive with insight. And though provocative, it resounds with wisdom and truth of a kind that many of his contemporaries, even his detractors, dared not confront.Within this city of brick an...

How Do We See The Future of Global Relations? with Amit Dasgupta (Episode 117)
🌎 The future of global relations looks pretty complex and interesting at this stage. Other than countries playing their individual role towards building a better world, there is a big role to be played by bodies such as the United Nations, IMF, European Union, World Bank, BRICS, G20 and Quad in the near future. 🕤 It is thus important to go back in time and understand the importance of these bodies and why they were formed. What was the purpose behind forming these bodies? Take the United Nations as an example. It was formed after the World War 2 to ensure peace betwee...

Strategic Relationship Between India & Australia: with Amit Dasgupta (Episode 105)
🇮🇳 🇦🇺 Is this the best time for India-Australia relationship to strengthen even further from here onwards? 🤝 We also need to change the vocabulary of this bilateral relationship and possibly think of changing it from the 3 C’s (Cricket, Curry & the Commonwealth) to the 3 E’s (Economy, Energy & Education). 🏏 Cricket still plays a major role in acting as a tool for diplomacy and friendship between the 2 countries. That’s why the theme of the meeting between the 2 Prime Ministers recently was also kept as “Friendship Through Cricket”. ✨ According to Amit ji, soft power alone doesn’t form the basis of any relationship.
