Here’s Why You Need South Asian Super Hero Book ‘Bravo Anjali’ From Author Sheetal Sheth

Hosted By Raj Girn

Welcome to #ANOKHIUNCENSORED! Thank you so much for your support for our amazing radio show by ANOKHI LIFE.

We are excited to announce that our monthly talk show ANOKHI UNCENSORED gets its official weekly spot every Monday at 8pm PST & 11pm EST and Tuesday at 4am GMT & 9.30am IST.

Sheetal Sheth is an acclaimed actress, producer, author, and activist. She is known for her provocative performances in a wide range of memorable roles on film and television. She has starred in over 20 feature films and many TV shows and has earned a loyal, international following. Sheetal has become a favourite in the independent film world, having won five best actress awards on the festival circuit.

Her extensive background in working with kids led her into the world of children’s literature and her first children’s book, Always Anjali was published in 2018 to wide acclaim. It won the 2019 Purple Dragonfly Storybook Grand Prize (voted on by teachers and librarians) and is set to be a series, with the follow up (which will be discussed during the live), releasing in 2021, making it the first ever illustrated book series with a South Asian hero.

Book Synopsis: In this follow up to Always Anjali, Anjali realizes that she should never let anyone make her feel bad for being good at something. An important story for all children to remember to ‘never dim their light.’

Raj and Sheetal got into BIPOC representation, the need for diversity and inclusion in children’s books, and what pre-ordering Bravo Anjali would be a valuable and entertaining gift for the holiday season.
