“I write stories of flawed female characters” - Sumukhi Suresh

On this episode, Sameera Reddy talks to comedian, actor, writer and producer Sumukhi Suresh. She’s the founder of Motormouth, a writing studio that aims to create shows, films, and stories based on real, flawed female characters. She’s known for her stand-up comedy and her hit Amazon Prime series ‘Pushpavalli’. We find out how she moved from nutrition and food science to comedy, why she feels that if she stops being busy her career will end, and why it was time someone wrote a story of a big girl.
