Anything But Bollywood

Neha RT hosts Anything But Bollywood, a refreshing conversation series from IVM Podcasts that deliberately steps away from the mainstream spotlight. Each episode is a deep, meandering chat with a different Indian creator or filmmaker, exploring the vast landscape of cinema and artistic expression that exists beyond the dominant industry. You’ll hear about regional film movements, independent storytelling, personal creative rituals, and the unexpected influences that shape compelling work. The discussions are less about box office and more about the raw materials of inspiration-the books, travels, frustrations, and small triumphs that fuel the artistic process. This podcast offers a necessary counter-narrative, celebrating the diverse voices and rich visual languages that define India's broader creative scene. Tune in for thoughtful, often surprising dialogues that remind us how much truly fascinating art is made just outside the usual frames.
