"This govt. is like having a drunk father": Varun Grover | Scroll Adda

Contribute to Scroll's studio fund: https://pages.razorpay.com/scrollstud... Scroll Adda Episode #7 Varun Grover describes himself as an anti-establishment artist. And as a writer, filmmaker and comedian, he has carved a distinct voice for himself in these politically charged times. Of course, none of this is easy. Never in its history as an independent country has India seen this level of censorship. The threat of violence always hangs over the head of dissenting artists. Grover describes this as “having a drunk father – one day he might come back and love you but then another he might beat you for no reason”. In Scroll Adda’s first-ever live audience recording, Shoaib Daniyal speaks to Grover to understand how a middle-class Punjabi kid from Lucknow managed to use his engineering degree as a springboard into Bombay. -- Chapters 0:00 Introduction 3:20 Filmmaking is an elaborate lie 11:15 Varun’s engineering days 15:59 ‘I always knew I wanted to be a writer’ 22:38 Trying to enter the film industry 31:14 Ghost writing in Bombay 36:49 Becoming a political comedian 40:05 Doing political comedy in the Modi age 52:45 How Bollywood has changed under the BJP 1:04:00 Why I am not a journalist 1:07:38 ‘OTTs are now super scared’ 1:23:01 Writing ‘Kagaz nahin dikhaenge’ Host: Shoaib Daniyal Producer: Kritika Pant -- Subscribe to Scroll's YouTube channel and turn on your notifications, so you don't miss new videos.
