Chai with Rai (Ep.22). In conversation with author Shweta Aggarwal where we sat and discussed her other accolades from writing, such as owning a Bollywood Company- Threebee. Which ran successfully for 10 years and they were the first Bollywood Dance Company to feature and make it to Semi-Finals of Britains Got Talent.

Shweta also has received Asian woman of achievement award for Arts and Culture in 2016 and was invited By her Majesty the Queen at Buckingham Palace For an event in 2017.  Also, being an author to the popular kids books Dev and Ollie and we discussed her new novel The Black Rose Book, which focuses her experiences on colourism within the south asian community. We heavily discussed Colourism in South Asian Community. The complexities of being working/ labour class, how its unjust to women vs men and of course beauty standards all around the world.

We had such a good chat talking about UK Dance politics, the Bollywood scene in the UK, how you set up a company and the logistics of it. How it is to be a self published author, her experience with her successful accomplishments. As well how she dealt with the low times in her life and what lessons she learnt from them.
