Utkarsh Gaur Podcast

Hosted by Utkarsh Gaur

On-the-ground video journalism from Indian street protests, challenging official narratives through direct interviews with participants.

The brief

This is a raw, guerrilla-style video podcast capturing the pulse of Indian street protests. Host Utkarsh Gaur embeds himself in demonstrations, conducting direct, often confrontational interviews with participants to challenge official narratives and amplify grassroots voices. While the primary focus is field reporting, the channel also features studio discussions on politics, economics, and geopolitics.

Unlike studio-based commentary, Gaur's work is defined by its immediate, in-the-field presence and his personal, provocative engagement with everyday people at the heart of a story. His signature look often includes a rose tucked behind his ear.
