Brief about the journey ------------------------------------
The I❤️ARR Podcast has been a dream journey. I have been on this journey on my own with utmost integrity, respect and love for Sir. This is to create something that will be treasured and cherished for a long long time.
There are many many sleepless nights to keep this journey going. It has been magical. 65 guests so far. This is something I had never dreamt of. It just happened.
It does take a lot with running the whole thing single handedly and also at the same time working full time. Also, as part of this journey, I am learning things from scratch right from creating posters, editing, tech required to run the Podcast etc This has been a very fulfilling experience. As part of this journey, the I❤️ARR Community has also evolved.
It’s amazing to see great talents collaborating and coming up with originals and covers. It’s truly magical. This is a journey that will be treasured for a long time. This has turned into talking autobiography of Sir. It’s very divine.
I can’t wait for you all to watch all the episodes.
The wait will be worth it.
Namasté
