This episode was recorded in August 2023. Avanti Nagral is the true epitome of a multi-hyphenate. The singer-content creator-activist juggles several fields with ease, in her trademark soft-spoken manner. There are a lot of things she’s known for - her dual degree from Harvard and Berkelee, her music which addresses themes of consent, individuality and equality and, as a by-product of having an online presence, her break-up. For a few months in 2022, the video where she spoke about her breakup dominated online discourse, spawning memes, jokes and roasts. Avanti however, refuses to be defined by online chatter, and has set her eyes on defining herself by her work. In this episode, we speak about her early years in the US, shifting to India, the time she almost got arrested, how she juggled dual degrees, why she spoke up about her breakup and how she handled the aftermath.
