A Delhiite, a Bangalorean and a Calcuttan walk into a bar. In the second episode of This Week inCulture, we discuss the quintessential food and bar culture in some of the country’s most popular cosmopolitans, and the various subcultures associated with the three cities. We also discuss the creation of the Koo App – an Indian alternative to Twitter – funnily with almost too many right-wing references.
Anant Shah- Founder
Anant Shah (just as his Instagram bio says) has always been interested in connecting people though their different cultures. He is drawn to this goal, given his background of a family of artists, as well as his work at several different organisations such as the People Tree with Orijit Sen, The Conflictorium in Ahmedabad and The UN (AIDS) Communications and Global Advocacy Team in Geneva. As a graduate of History and International relations at Ashoka University, he co-founded and set up the Ashoka Literature festival in 2019. Longing to increase this critical discourse on contemporary and traditional Indian Cultures he finally decided to start InCulture.
Kartik Sundar- Founder
Kartik Sundar loves nothing more than opining on cultural content. An avid writer for many publications, the decision to start one of his own came from recognizing a substantive lack of critical discourse around Indian culture today. He graduated Ashoka University with a degree in History & International Relations and wishes to complete further education with a focus on media and cultural studies.
