141. The Brutal Narra Killings | Live at Apple

In February, we hosted our very first live event at Apple BKC, Mumbai. But if you couldn’t attend, don’t fret. Here is the recording of the live Desi Crime episode. A quiet home in New Jersey became the site of an unspeakable horror—two innocent lives lost in a single, chilling night. An IT professional's wife, and their young son, found slain in what seemed like a brutal act of vengeance. No forced entry, no clear suspect, just eerie silence and unanswered questions. What really happened behind the closed doors of the Narra family’s home?

Chaloge Bhaiya? | OFFICIAL TRAILER

Watch the full show on YouTube: https://yt.openinapp.co/ChalogeBhaiyaEp1Autos crawl across Bombay like ants, obedient as our blood in their blind circuit of hacked roads. 4.5 lakh ricks are there to attend to your flailing hand in this city. 450,000 autos have 450,000 stories. The romanticization of the auto often obscures the stories of the autowallahs. Chaloge Bhaiya is a show where you hear conversations that no podcast features, food no blogger writes about, stories no one tells. We get into an auto. We hit record. We let the driver take us wherever they want. Every episode, the driver takes us to their favorite food spot in the city—the places they swear by, the ones you won’t find on a bougie food critic’s ‘10 Things To Eat In Bombay’ listicle. From 2am dal baati to a local bar crawl, we feature street food that’ll have you running to your nearest auto. You just gotta wait until March 13, when the show premiers on The Desi Studios YouTube channel.Episode 1: 13.03.25Episode 2: 20.03.25Episode 3: 27.03.25Episode 4: 3.04.25Episode 5: 10.04.25Episode 6: 17.04.25Host and director: Aryaan MisraProducer: Desi StudiosCinematography and Editing: Evan ThomasGraphic Design: Manasi Pandya#ChalogeBhaiya #Bombay #Autorickshaw

The Search For Nadia Malik [VIDEO]

A murder involves a murderer, the murdered, a murder weapon and more often than not, a motive. This template is true for most cases covered on our podcast.

If there is any one thing common to all humans, regardless of race or age or ethnicity or the time period in which we lived, it is our longing for freedom. Freedom from coercion, freedom from oppression, freedom to choose, freedom to live. But sometimes, this freedom comes at a cost, a cost we don’t even know we need to pay until it's far too late. Freedom is all one 17 year old Pakistani British girl longed for and freedom is what she never got. This is the story of that one 17 year old. This is the story of Shafelia Ahmed.  For fastest updates, follow our socials at: https://www.instagram.com/desicrime/Aryaan https://www.instagram.com/aryaanmisra/Aishwarya https://www.instagram.com/aishwaryasinghs/For extra episodes, early access, silly bloopers, subscribe at: https://www.patreon.com/thedesistudios or join our YouTube family https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnbfV0YvrxWMq3h0hmo13Jg/joinTo buy Desi Studios merch, visit: https://kadakmerch.com/collections/desi-studios
