This week, Aakar answers questions about why he thinks the Ambani residence, Antilla, is the perfect representation of power, what the porn ban says about the government’s mode of functioning, why we get interested when Deepika talks of depression, what a day job can add to a writer’s craft, and what turns cricketers into icons.

Ask Aakar Anything #17: India Through a Mythological Lens

Ask Aakar Anything is a weekly show where Aakar Patel shares his views on topics that you raise (and sometimes on those you should have raised). Each week Aakar answers questions sent to him from across the country on subjects as diverse as politics, current affairs, sports, entertainment and social issues answering them with a unique perspective on things, the way only he can.
Irreverent, serious, insightful, analytical, funny, angry, passionate but never dull: that’s Aakar’s answer to your question about what his show is about.
