Chai with Rai

08-02-2023 • 1 hr 9 mins

From our love of Dr.Who and being a Whovian to talking about Scottish sausages. It was so nice to finally connect with actor, writer and multi-disciplinary artist Sanjay Lago.

In the episode we discuss:

  • What are the joys and hurdles of creating your own lane. Being a  creator of opportunity right-- if no one gives you work, you create your own.
  • Reflections on; I don’t give a fuck, Can’t live without it, Main Kaun Hoo, and fringe
  • Do you feel boxed? Often no just as a South Asian actor but also as a Queer South Asian writer/ artist.
  • The Arts Space in Scotland as a creative.
  • Experience on Royal Conservative of Scotland and Soho Writers Lab.
  • Discussing Queer experience and being South Asian. The community at large and the South Asian LGBTQIA+ community.
  • Things the industry could do with and without.
  • Favourite part of the job?
  • Obsession with DR.WHO and how that has influenced Sanjay's writing?
  • Love me Like a Chai Tea Latte at the Vaults- how has it been and what are you looking forward to the most and least.
