Un-Herd: Conversations of Change

Remember the famous dialogue from Dead Poet's Society "Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for?"

In today's trending world of entrepreneurs and start-ups, artists from different walks of the society have made it their mission to prove otherwise and have made their art, a way of living and sustenance.

How do we pair raw artistic talent with an entrepreneurial mindset to get the best of both worlds?

'Un-herd' brings to you real stories, raw conversations and a sneak-peak into the lives of art-repreneurs who have not compromised on their dreams or their way of living.

Take their train, discover your route and when the journey ends, the station we drop you at won’t be your destination. But you will surely know where to go from there. And we guarantee occasional glimpses into the inner recesses and passages of your heart and mind you’ve never seen before.

Come, board the train with us.
