Kiran Desai in conversation with Sonam Kapoor for The Nod Book Club

Getting Kiran Desai and Sonam Kapoor in a room to talk about 'The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny' (and then some) was pure magic. There was laughter, goosebumps, a few misty eyes—and everything in between. We couldn’t have dreamed up a better duo to kick off The Nod Book Club’s very first event.

Soundcheck with Anoushka Shankar

Just hours before her Mumbai concert, Anoushka Shankar listens to the voice on her headset, flashes her trademark smile and punctuates the air with a thumbs-up, confident in everyone’s ability to do their job.Mumbai is the third stop on a significant six-city India tour for Shankar, after Hyderabad and Bengaluru, and it’s a city with which she has deep connections. Plus, it’s Grammys night. If she’s on edge, she’s not showing it. “We made the choice (about touring on the dates of the Grammy awards) before the nominations arrived,” she says flatly.“I decided that I’m not going to hold space for something like this—like, maybe it will happen, maybe it won’t, but I’ve got to live my life,” she says with a little laugh. Fourteen nominations over the years—she’s attended a few times and it’s been… fine. “I’d rather keep it real than get sucked into that… stressy thing… and do what I really do, and that’s playing music.”Read the full interview here: <a href="https://thenodmag.com/content/anoushka-shankar-musician-sitarist-mumbai-india-tour-interview-gorillaz-collab">https://thenodmag.com/content/anoushka-shankar-musician-sitarist-mumbai-india-tour-interview-gorillaz-collab</a> Editorial Direction: Megha Mahindru, Ridhima SapreVideographer: Savio GerhartBookings editor: Nikita MosesMultimedia designer: Mehak JindalVisuals Editor: Ria RawatSocial Media Editor: Diya ParakhPR: Communiqué Film PR

Beyond the Book: Meera Ganapathi in conversation with Megha Majumdar

Beyond the Book: Parmesh Shahani in conversation with Mahesh Rao

We get attached to our books—and Mahesh Rao’s 'Half Light' was particularly hard to let go of. So, to process this novel's emotional whiplash, we got writer Parmesh Shahani to chat with Rao about queer clichés, why Ahaan Pandey and Taha Shah are their dream leading men, and whether a sequel might be lurking in Rao’s drafts.&nbsp;&nbsp;~Join our Instagram channel to read along with us: https://www.instagram.com/channel/AbaiNjee79flVG5f/&nbsp;More about The Nod Book Club here: https://thenodmag.com/book-club
