Books on Toast | BotCast Episode 42: How to Keep Reading with Akarsh Khurana @BooksonToast | Uploaded May 2020 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
Friends, let's face it. We may be in lockdown for a while longer, so why not make the most of it. We got filmmaker, playwright, screenwriter and actor Akarsh Khurana to Zoom call with us and talk about how he's kept up with his reading habits all these years. What he reads, what he watches, how he adapts to stage or screen, his bookish confessions and some killer recommendations about books.
Do follow him on Instagram + Twitter at @akvarious where he posts about books and plays that he's reading and all the behind the scenes action from his day job.
