There is a special place in our memory for our first love. We cherish that sweetness of festivals when we were growing up. A song from the 90s invokes many a colourful memories. The smell of the first monsoon rain evokes the imagery of paper boats that we rowed in little streams. We keep some memories hidden in our chest forever. My name is Alif, and I am a cinematographer by profession and a storyteller by choice. I grew up in a set-up where many evenings were spent listening to folklore from the elderly. I'd get hooked to those stories and would often bring them to life in my imagination. Qisse Kahaniyaan is my attempt to bring you some such memories wrapped in words and dressed in sound. My promise is that each of these stories will be juiced with nostalgia and memories. Millions of listeners seek out Bingepods (Ideabrew Studios Network content) every day.

M. F. HUSAIN: BEYOND THE CANVAS | Qisse Kahaniyaan Podcast
Few artists have shaped modern Indian art like Maqbool Fida Husain (M.F. Husain)—a painter whose bold strokes told stories of beauty, culture, and controversy. Known as the ‘Picasso of India’, Husain’s life was a canvas filled with triumphs and trials, adored by some and criticised by others.
In this dramatised episode of Qisse Kahaniyaan, we bring Husain’s voice to life through a skilled artist, letting him narrate his own journey.
Step into the world of M.F. Husain and discover:
His rise from painting Bollywood posters to becoming India’s most celebrated modern artist.
The vibrant and thought-provoking artworks that made him a legend.
The controversies that led to legal battles, protests, and eventual exile.
His journey from India to Qatar, and the unbreakable spirit of an artist who refused to be silenced.
Was M.F. Husain a fearless visionary, a misunderstood genius, or both? Hear his story—raw, unfiltered, and as colourful as his art.
