  • The Modern India Podcast #83-The Shape of Belonging
    Mar 22 2026

    What does it mean to belong when your life spans cultures, countries, and identities in motion?

    In this episode, we speak with Arvinn Gadgil, Deputy Chief of Mission at the Royal Norwegian Embassy in New Delhi. With roots in Maharashtra and a childhood in Pune, his return to India raises a deeper question: does a place ever stop being home?

    We explore identity beyond nationality, the experience of being seen differently across contexts, and what it means to live — and belong — between worlds.
