概要
 What does it really mean to build a life between worlds? Diaspora Dialogues is a Times of India podcast hosted by Sujatha Padmanabhan. A conversation series for the millions of South Asians living between cultures and building new lives while carrying the old ones forward. We sit down with innovators, entrepreneurs, artists, athletes, and changemakers from across the South Asian diaspora and ask the questions that don't usually make the headlines. What shaped them. What guides them. And what pulls them back. Honest conversations about identity, ambition, belonging, and the quiet responsibility so many of us feel to give back. New episodes every two weeks.

    Neil Soni and Amrapali Soni Ryan are the siblings behind Laxmi House of Spices - the family business that brought Indian food to American kitchens. On this episode of Diaspora Dialogues by TOI™, they join Sujatha Padmanabhan to trace how their parents' search for familiar Indian ingredients grew into a brand serving millions of households across North America. What we cover: • Carrying their parents' legacy forward as a second-generation family business • Why trust matters more than quick wins when you're building for the long term • Bringing regional Indian food to a mainstream audience without flattening it • Learning to run a company as siblings - the father's expectations, the arguments, the respect • How the next chapter of Laxmi gets built Neil and Amrapali are candid about the personal cost of a family enterprise: the pressure of a name that isn't yours alone, and the relationships that either make a business durable or quietly break it.

    How Yusuf Bhai Turns Memories Into Fragrance | Diaspora Dialogues by TOI™
    2026/10/14
    From Kerala to Dubai… meet the perfumer who turns memories into fragrance. Yusuf Bhai is a Dubai-based perfumer who can rebuild a person’s past in scent: a childhood home, Kerala after the rain, a favourite meal, someone you love. In this episode of Diaspora Dialogues by TOI™, he sits down with Sujatha Padmanabhan to talk about perfume, memory and identity, and why a great fragrance is about far more than smelling good. He shares his unlikely route into perfumery, from photography and visual art to the craft of making scent. He also explains how culture shapes the way we experience fragrance, and why certain smells can instantly transport you to another time and place. If you’ve ever wondered whether a perfume can hold a memory, this conversation is for you. #YusufBhai #Perfume #DiasporaDialogues TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Introduction 03:25 Early Years and Life Before Perfumes 10:08 The Art of Creating Perfumes 16:54 Yusuf Bhai’s Process of Creating Perfumes 21:53 Connection Between Perfumes and Memories 30:54 The Correct Way of Wearing Perfume 35:41 Yusuf Bhai’s Fitness and Sporting Interests 40:28 Where Are Indian Perfume Brands? 48:47 Rapidfire with Yusuf Bhai Watch the full conversation - part of the Diaspora Dialogues series by TOI™ 📸 Follow us on: Instagram : ⁠https://www.instagram.com/diasporadialoguesbytoi/ Facebook : ⁠https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563158002784⁠ 🎧Listen to us on: Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/diaspora-dialogues Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/diasporadialogues-applepodcast 🔔Subscribe for more conversations with Indian - American artists, musicians, chefs, and achievers from all walks of life shaping the NRI experience.

    2026/09/30
    Saurabh Netravalkar went from India's U19 setup to bowling the USA to a historic World Cup win over Pakistan while working full-time as an Oracle engineer. On this episode of Diaspora Dialogues by TOI™, Saurabh joins Sujatha Padmanabhan to unpack the journey that made him one of the faces of America's cricketing rise. He talks about growing up between Indian and American cultures, choosing engineering before finding his way back to cricket, and what it means to play for Team USA while helping build a cricketing identity in America. The conversation goes beyond the boundary too…touching on identity, ambition, the Indian-American experience, and what happens when you refuse to choose between the life your background expects and the one you want to build. They also look at the changing landscape of American cricket, the Indian diaspora's relationship with the sport, and what the future of cricket in the US could look like.
