In today’s episode, we have Ravi Kishan, actor with over 750 films across languages and a Member of Parliament from Gorakhpur. He shares the deeply personal story behind his journey from stage performances to cinema and politics.
We discuss the meaning of manliness, what he’s carried forward from his father, and how years of struggle shaped his drive to work relentlessly across languages and industries. Ravi Kishan discusses his transition into politics, his views on caste, public perception, and how he responds to criticism and controversy. In the final segment, he opens up about ego, humility, insecurity, and the difference between chasing fame and chasing peace. He talks about what continues to motivate him, how he sees leaders like our Prime Minister, and why he still feels the need to prove himself.
