This is just me at your house party on a couch in your drawing room with a G&T in my hands talking about the #AmbaniWedding but it’s also on @spotifyindia now somehow! I argue that as much as it was a grotesque spectacle of wealth + power in a new shiny India with huge cracks in it, if we were, in fact, invited, we’d all go to this wedding in a heartbeat. I know it’s a hot take. I’m sure there’s a million other ways to look at it. Thank you @thinkingpplpod @ketakisharma95 and @SanayaSans Listen in 🎧 open.spotify.com/episode/3qR0ke…
