Bihar isn’t just a stop on the map anymore; it’s beginning to feel like a second home. I sat face to face with Tejashwi Yadav, the RJD’s young face, to talk about the issues that weigh heavily here: corruption, migration, politics, and the scars and triumphs that come with them. Our conversation drifted to Bihar’s larger political mood, the frustrations and the glimpses of hope. And somewhere between the gravity of it all, we found space to laugh, tossing a few jokes back and forth like Sachin Tendulkar squaring off against Glenn McGrath.

When we last met, Prashant Kishor opened up about his big dreams and tough choices. Now, as Bihar heads into a make-or-break election, we return with Part 2, from the heart of Patna. What’s changed? What hasn’t?In this frank and unfiltered conversation, PK goes deep: the ground reality of Bihar, Jan Suraaj as organisation, his “actual” role in the party, Nitish Kumar’s health versus political will. How much of Lalu’s popularity is nostalgia and how much is just the lack of good options? From young Bihar politicians Tejashwi Yadav and Chirag Paswan, to Rahul Gandhi’s allegations against the Election Commission, and the SIR in Bihar, this interview covers it all. There’s even banter about our last viral interview and how many people watched it. Watch, question, argue, and laugh with us. This isn’t just an interview, it’s PK, Unfiltered.

78 years of Independence, 78 years of Freedom & 78 years of Partition. Team Unfiltered travelled to Jaipur to meet a survivor of the divide who also happens to be the best storyteller we have ever met. From stories of '46 conflict on the lines of religion to the war stories of '65, from leaving Urdu behind in his school to the current longing to go back and visit Khyber Pakhtun, this 90 year old charmer has it all. In an endeavour to keep the stories of the survivors of partition always alive, here's presenting, The Ultimate Baddie - The Greatest Indian Alive.Happy Independence Day to you too.

1947 — a year etched in both gold and blood in the shared history of two nations: India and Pakistan.But Since then, from cricket pitches to political punches, from loud headlines to quiet graveyards — the rivalry has only grown louder.However, beneath all the noise, as young Indians, deep down, we all wish to understand our neighbouring country. And who better to talk to than a man who's carried the scars of Partition, not just the stories. Hence, Samdish decided to visit the home of a Partition survivor, a 92 year old Indian Army veteran to ask the question that still echoes across generations: How do we deal with this neighbour?

Tum log pehchaane ye kaun hai? Nahi?? Arey yaar ye bohot bada aadmi hai. Ye wohi hai jiske chakkar me desh ke kuch mazdooro ko unke haq ka paisa aur kaam waqt pe mil jata hai. FYI, this man is a Trade Unionist who also happens to be the General Secretary of the CITU (Centre of Indian Trade Unions). Hereby Introducing Comrade Anurag Saxena. In an extremely detailed conversation with Anurag, he took me through ‘n’ number of challenges faced by the workers of this country, along with CITU’s role in resolving those issues. Whether it concerns the bad living conditions, inadequate access to healthcare, or the ongoing struggle to receive wages from employers, Anurag gave us quite a vivid picture of the current worker situation. In between all this, he also mentioned how a trade unionist like himself struggles to survive in a metropolitan city like Delhi and is hardly making ends meet. While discussions around trade unions have largely disappeared from our everyday lives, this interview is an attempt to fill that space and let these voices out.

Happy new year dosto! Kicking off 2025 with some serious dope content! For this wild experience —I hopped on a train to Chandigarh (don’t even get me started on my trust issues with that ride) and decked myself out in some top-tier athletic gear. Why? To meet none other than the man who calls himself The Lion, The Emperor of the Universe, and the man who gave us two world cups — Yograj Singh. We dove deep into his empire of 2,500 acres (yeah, you read that right). He shared his desire to change his bloodline and his constant prayers to God for a new life so he could become the greatest cricketer of all time. He also opened up about his biggest regret—venturing into acting—and many other personal revelations. Oh, and the story of how Yograj Singh believes he was born in the wrong country? Absolute madness. From the ruthless world of sports politics to the time he pointed a pistol at Kapil Dev, this man has spoken about it all. Spoiler alert: I low-key tried to be his therapist for a bit during this chat. Did it work? Maybe. Maybe not. One thing’s for sure, though—this guy is built different. Yeh Jodi bawaal kaat degi.

Yes, Rajdeep Sardesai has carved out his fanbase in his career spanning several decades. One day (when Rajdeep Sardesai may/may not have been in the mood for promoting his book), we sat down to have a conversation about almost all the issues/things that touch the world of journalism and contemporary socio-political realities of India. We had a multilayered conversation about how journalism has changed over the years, the downfall of journalistic standards across domains, his double date with Salman Khan, his coverage and memories of the 1993 Mumbai riots and 2002 Gujarat riots, and much more. Ab saare topics yahin padh loge toh video mein kya khaak mazaa aayega. Jao, enjoy karo. Nahi karoge, then it's your loss, not mine.

For this episode, I decided to sit with one of the 'supremes' of Indian Politics, one of the lead decision-makers in the current ruling party, and the ultimate highway king of India, Mr. Nitin Gadkari. Mr Gadkari hosted me in his Delhi residence on a wintery evening where we talked about his love for food, his early life as a mediocre student and his journey of becoming one of the most powerful leaders of Indian Politics. From understanding his stand on Live-in relationships, same-sex marriages & marital rapes to asking him about oxygen related deaths during covid and the Government's incompetence towards resolving the Manipur crisis, we discussed it all. We also talked about how Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru inspired him in many ways & how the current political scenario has deteriorated in India. From his weaknesses to his aggression issues, from Sangh to BJP, listen to all of this and more. Presenting Unfiltered by Samdish ft.

For this episode, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down with the filmmaker whose movies I've been watching since childhood, the films that have inspired me throughout the years, the G.O.A.T - Mr. Shyam Benegal. Witnessing the man whose contribution to Hindi cinema is nothing short of a legacy, who discovered gems like Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri, Shabana Azmi and many more, truly felt like a dream come true! I delved into discussions about his acclaimed creations like Mandi and Bharat Ek Khoj, Directors like Guru Dutt, Satyajit Ray, the political landscape of the '70s till the Emergency, his fanciest meal and whether or not he’s a boring man. From talking about his favourite drink to tales of envy, nostalgia & navigating fame, Shyam Benegal holds nothing back. He even shared his opinions(and love) on Jawaharlal Nehru, his favourite Indian films, whether he prefers Coppola or Scorsese, and why he agreed to this interview (or did he??) I’m excited to present one of my favourite interviews, where art, nostalgia, and contemporary topics intertwine beautifully.

His late father, Abdul Gani Lone, was a prominent separatist leader and one of the founding members of the Hurriyat Conference, a political front representing various separatist groups in Jammu & Kashmir. We had an intriguing conversation about life in Kashmir before 1987, the alleged rigging of the 1987 elections, his arrests and interrogations, him being an Imran Khan fan and hating Kapil Dev, his incompetence in catching thieves, his desires of becoming the tourism minister of the world and much, much, more.

I spent a day with Omar Abdullah, my close friend, former J&K Chief Minister and Vice President of the Jammu & Kashmir National Conference for this episode. Before sitting down for a chat in his lawns (for the second time), I hijacked Omar Sahab’s shotgun seat on the way to the Ganderbal constituency for his nomination filing programme. I witnessed the star politician getting overwhelmed after his emotional speech to the people of Ganderbal, his “rockstar” sitting-on-the-sun-roof campaigning style, why UP’s CM is his favourite CM *wink wink* and a lot more! We also discussed how important this election is for him, his defeat in the Baramulla constituency in the Lok Sabha Elections, the emergence of independent candidates in J&K and how he won’t give me a third interview in case he gets elected (IYKYK). Presenting to you, Unfiltered by Samdish ft. Omar Abdullah | J&K Elections 2024

In a conversation that felt like a dream, I sat down with the legendary actor Rajit Kapur. His name might not ring a bell, but his contribution to Hindi Cinema is nothing less than art. Whether it's his portrayal of detective Byomkesh Bakshi in the 90s TV series or his role as a father of the spy in the 2018 film Raazi, Rajit has never failed to impress his audience. Rajit talks about it all, from being a perennial face in Shyam Benegal movies to adapting the ever-changing medium of acting. He shares his insights on the world of theatre, his current favourite play & his most memorable experience of watching other artists perform. From being nervous before every shot to the strength he derives from his co-actors, Rajit also sheds light on his life on the film sets. Rajit gave me a peek into his travel diary, stories from his childhood and walked me through his life journey. But it doesn't end here. He left me with a song and that's all I needed to complete my #fan-boy moment (which was precisely the point of this whole Interview).
