High Five with Sir Vince Cable | Eclipsing the West | Ep 47
"I could smell India before I could see it," a dear British friend told me after his first visit. It made me laugh then think. To outsiders, India can feel like a sensory ambush: colour, noise, chaos, and contradiction arriving all at once. How does anything get done here? It's one of the sharpest threads running through this candid High Five with Sir Vince Cable: Episode 47: Eclipsing the West. We get into what the world consistently gets wrong about India, whether Britain still nurses a colonial hangover specially in the corridors of Westminster, the unfinished business of Brexit, and a shifting world order that nobody fully understand yet. Oh, and which dance best describes geopolitics today? You'll want to stay for that one.

Names That Built India | Ep 51
What is your name story? And what is the name story of India? Shakespeare asked, “What’s in a name?” For an Indian, the answer may be-everything. A name can carry faith, family, region, memory, aspiration, love, and the dreams parents quietly place in their child’s future. Believe it or not, Ram and Lakshmi are among India’s all-time favourite names since Independence. But why? Why did names like Rahul, Anil, Sunil, Pooja, and Rohit rise, return and remain across decades? And what do these names reveal about India’s journey and the hopes, emotions, and imagination of Indians through time? That’s exactly what Vivek Desai, entrepreneur, and co-founder of iMeUsWe, and his team set out to discover sifting through 1.6 billion public records to trace Indian name trends from 1947 to 2025, decade by decade. What emerges is more than a name report. It is India’s story, name by name, a living map of faith, cinema, cricket, migration, family pride, social change, and modern aspiration. We shot this interview at Vivek’s London home, where another beautiful story unfolds. He doesn’t only collect names. He collects moments that matter from a passion that brings Indians together across the globe-cricket. From a T20 World Cup-winning ball to a shirt signed by Virat Kohli, and bats used by cricketing icons, this is India’s public memory, preserved as touchstones to a country he carries with love. Watch this episode. It may make you look closer at your own name, your family history, and the nation of stories we call India. And it will also make you relive some unforgettable milestones from Indian cricket.

India A Story in Making | The Last Princesses of Punjab | Ep 49
This is history that doesn’t need dramatising. It already surpasses fiction. How do you befriend the very Crown that exiled your family? Born to Maharaja Duleep Singh, the same ruler who, as a child, was made to sign away the Koh-i-Noor, raised in Britain, and moving within the inner circles of the empire that stripped their family of everything the Duleep Singh princesses lived between worlds. Indian heritage. Mixed lineage. Royal blood. And yet, at a time in Britain when women couldn’t vote, Sophia, Catherine and Bamba found their voice and used it to fight for the right of every British woman to be counted and heard. In this episode of India: A Story in the Making, I go inside Kensington Palace’s stunning exhibition The Last Princesses of Punjab, exploring lives that span suffragette activism, exile, empire, identity, and an extraordinary search for belonging. And behind these three women? An equally remarkable lineage. Their mother, Bamba Müller, of Ethiopian and German heritage, raised Christian. And their grandmother, Maharani Jind Kaur, imprisoned by the British, who escaped in disguise and crossed mountains just to hold her son again. These princesses lived through the most seismic chapters of modern history, India’s freedom struggle, the suffragette movement, two World Wars, and more. Their story is inseparable from the story of the age itself. They though, were never just witnesses to history, they were inside it, shaping it, surviving it. Fascinating falls far short of what they lived through. And what they did. ✨ A must-watch for connoisseurs of real-life stories that inspire. 📍 The Last Princesses of Punjab exhibition at Kensington Palace runs until 8 November 2026 ( https://www.hrp.org.uk/kensington-palace/whats-on/the-last-princesses-of-punjab/ ) EPISODE LIVE NOW ON: 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@loveenatandonproductions 🎙️ Podcast – Smart Link: https://bingepods.com/podcast/podcast-rn7moe 💬 Join Our Discord Community: https://discord.gg/p2UYt9uV5d Learn more about your ad choices.
