Chinki Sinha, Editor Outlook Magazine on Pause with Nandini
Description
A woman who asks too many questions offers a window into her world.
For Chinki Sinha, war is never elsewhere.
Armed with James Baldwin's politics of love, she finds hope in protests, reads from her grandfather's stolen diaries, finds herself locked up in a brothel, goes to Kashmir to cover silence, and eats kulfi for dinner, spent after a day chasing stories.
Of all the people who have come on Pause, Chinki is probably the most mercurial, enigmatic in the way she wears her role as Editor of the formidable Outlook magazine with equal parts creative fire, curiosity, and lightness.
Blurring the lines between journalism and poetry, fashion and politics, the mechanics of storytelling with the art of hanging out, at a time of claustrophobic conformity, Chinki's is a singular voice that is both breath and blade.
A special episode. I hope you enjoy it too.
