Salone Sehgal, founder and GP of Lumikai, one of India’s first dedicated games and interactive media funds, and Abhaas Shah, co-founder of Studio Sirah, join us to talk about the size of India’s gaming market, their conviction in the untapped potential of Hindu and Indian lore and mythology, educate us on what’s really going on with all the regulatory headwinds we see in the news regarding online gaming taxes and tight regulatory regimes, and explain some of the production challenges for developing for the India market. If you think the future of gaming in India is only RMG, think again, and hit play!
