In today’s episode, we sit down with Imtiaz Ali, Writer, Director & Filmmaker, to talk about storytelling, desire, failure, and the emotions that make us human.

We discuss why dishonesty lies at the heart of many of his stories, why he is drawn to complex characters, and why simple stories rarely interest him. Imtiaz shares his thoughts on self-growth, desire, relationships, and why people often spend their lives chasing what they don’t have.

The conversation also goes behind the making of Rockstar, including the story behind Sadda Haq, the challenges of filming it, and why he believes Rockstar was never a perfect film. We talk about wealth, failure, Gen Z relationships, and the lessons that only come after things fall apart. This episode is about creativity, identity, and the search for meaning.
