Halla Bol | Preview

Safdar Hashmi was killed in 1989 for doing a play. In his death, he became an icon — for freedom of expression, for standing up to oppression, for the right to dissent. The Halla Bol Podcast is Safdar Hashmi's story — it's not a story of death, but the story of a life lived in art and activism. Produced by Ashish Paliwal, the podcast is narrated by Sudhanva Deshpande, one of Safdar's closest collaborators and author of the book Halla Bol: The Death and Life of Safdar Hashmi.
