Manish Malhotra on fashion, loneliness & Bollywood friendships | Karishma Mehta | EP 7

Описание: Episode 5 is for those who love to stay in vogue!
And our next guest for our talk show - "How The Hell Did I Do It?" hosted by Karishma Mehta is someone who will never go out of style - Mr. Manish Malhotra!

He’s always in the limelight, so we think we know everything about him, but through our conversation, I got to know a side of him that I’ve never heard or read about. Manish Malhotra – the friend who'd go miles for you, the son who'd fix your saree before every party and the Bollywood buff who'd spend hours in front of the TV screen… dreaming!

At 55 and single, Manish got candid with us about loneliness and his quieter moments of reflection. His sense of grief with the loss of the late Sri Devi and his nostalgia of once upon a time being a struggling model in the industry.

Let’s find out…How the hell did he do it?

“How The Hell Did I Do It?” is a Humans of Bombay Original – a talk show where we speak with the dreamers, the pioneers, the go-getters and the never-say-no’ers from all walks of life. We discuss their journeys – the highs, the lows and everything in between. And through our candid conversations, we try to decode the human behind the name, and get pretty close to figuring out – How The Hell Did They Do It?

About Humans of Bombay –

Humans of Bombay is a movement that started 8 years ago. We believe that every person has a story to tell and we want to help them tell these stories. In these years we’ve published stories across genres – stories of love, hope, faith and courage. And through our storytelling, we’ve built an engaged community of over 4.5M!
Our idea is simple – to strike a chord with our community and catalog the beat of humanity, one story at a time.
