2002 Gujarat Riots: Revisiting The Event Which Reconfigured India's Politics
Where were you on 27 February 2002 as India witnessed one of its bloodiest Hindu-Muslim riots in Gujarat over three days prompted by the burning of a train in Godhra? Twenty years since the Gujarat riots which led to at least a thousand deaths, there are still many questions and elusive answers about how a large-scale massacre could take place over a span of three days.

RK Laxman: The Cartoonist Who Lives Through 'The Common Man'
RK Laxman, the legendary cartoonist spoke through his cartoons, about the concerns of The Common Man — a character that featured for almost half a century in The Times Of India's daily cartoon strip, You Said It. Laxman's bald, bespectacled, and dhoti-clad Common Man was part of every frame as either a spectator or a subject. And, the way Laxman wrote the captioned dialogues, not only resonated with the readers but politicians as well. How Laxman's genius brought his aam aadmi to life on TV as Wagle is a lesson in creative wisdom. Tune in as we speak with Aanjan Srivastava who played this Common Man in Wagle Ki Duniya and Atish Kapadia who has re-created the show which is called Wagle Ki Duniya - Nayi Peedhi, Naye Kissey. We also catch up with editorial cartoonist, Manjul, who breaks down how RK Laxman captured modern India and its problems through his cartoons. Learn more about your ad choices.

20 Years of K3G: It's All About Loving the Good, the Bad, and Karan Johar
It's been 20 years since Karan Johar's cult-classic 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham' (or K3G as it's popularly known), captured our attention with a dazzling star-cast, extravagant sets and glitzy fashion. We may find the KJo brand of films as far off from reality as it can be, yet can we honestly stop humming to 'Suraj Huya Madhyam' or forget the moment when Shahrukh Khan aka Raj jumps out of the helicopter? Love it or hate it, K3G delivered the entertainment that it promised to. 20 years on, we caught up with film critics and journalists, Khalid Mohamed and Aseem Chhabra to understand our love-hate relationship with KJo's Cinema. We also speak with three child artistes from K3G — Maalvika Raaj who played young Kareena Kapoor, Parzaan Dastoor who plays Usman Siddiqui, and Jesse Lever who plays the son of Haldiram played by Johnny Lever, and they take us through the lesser-known details behind the making of K3G.
