Description

With Anisha Parmar

Queen Zeenat Mahal, the last Empress of India, was a warrior, freedom fighter, and strategist—yet her legacy is often overshadowed by history. In this episode, Mehala and jewelry designer Anisha Parmar discuss a miniature painting of Zeenat Mahal and explore how her story continues to inspire creative work today.

Anisha Parmar is a UK-based jewelry designer and cultural practitioner whose work is deeply rooted in her hybrid heritage and the diaspora experience.
