Summary
Welcome to Cyrus Says! In this episode, Cyrus is joined by Gitikka Dhar, one of India’s most seasoned live-event hosts and anchors for a candid, funny, and deeply personal conversation about anchoring, acting, ageism, motherhood, menopause, spirituality, and surviving the entertainment industry. From her early days in Delhi and landing high-paying anchor gigs to rebuilding her career after motherhood, Gitikka opens up about the emotional and professional realities of staying relevant in a youth-obsessed industry. The episode also dives into her journey into acting, working with Aamir Khan, sharing screen space with Ranveer Singh, navigating rejection and comeback phases, and why experience, presence, and self-belief still matter more than industry labels. With Cyrus in full chaotic form, the conversation swings from Ozempic and parking rage to Bollywood crushes, casting, live hosting, and personal growth. Honest, hilarious, and unexpectedly moving, this is Gitikka Dhar like you’ve rarely heard her before. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
