When three old friends - who have seen each other at their least glamourous - catch up, it's a lot of fun, banter and uncensored chat!

Kiran Manral and Shunali Shroff sit down with Priyanka Chaturvedi, member of the Rajya Sabha, detailing her
journey from a concerned citizen in Mumbai to a notable figure in Indian politics. They explore her catalyst for entering politics following the 26/11 terror attacks, her navigation through the challenges of balancing family life
with a political career, and her experiences and struggles as a woman in the political sphere.

They also dive into her adjustment to life in Delhi, the misconceptions about politicians, and the critical need for women's representation and mentorship in politics. Chaturvedi candidly discusses the scrutiny and trolling on social media, maintaining privacy, adherence to protocols as a public figure, and reflects on the impact of constant political news on society.

Additionally, she reveals a lighter side by contemplating political comedy, underscoring her resilience, awareness, and optimistic outlook towards enhancing women's participation in politics.
