I have looked at Dhruv's profile at least a hundred times and have gotten so much inspiration about not only embracing and diving into fashion but also how to live my life more authentically.
Super excited for you all to listen to this episode as we talk ethics on tech, identity through saree's and what would one do if you were stuck in a Rickshaw with Rekha and Pretty Zinta?
“Liberated Queer” w/ Muz & Alia
The artwork alone of this episode should be sellable is all I am saying.
I had such a wonderful time carrying on my chat with Muz & Alia Founders of Asianpurrsuasion, members of The Iconic Royal House of Milan and Welsh Ballroom Community. We get into it from dating to dipping.
p.s- we did have a dance section to the games which I will edit and release soon on YouTube so keep an eye out for that.
