DesiQuest

Join us as we journey to the coastal region of Vehaar, a land full of adventures unfolding at the intersection of familial drama and missing luggage! But worry not, we have Namir (Luis Carazo), our resident nature expert, steering us through the ebbs and flows of the grand Kitty party thrown by the ever-extravagant Priya (Jasmine Bhullar). Brace yourself for a surprise as Namir readies himself to crash this fashionably late gathering.
Skip across the borders with us as Sitara (Anjali Bhimani) welcome Ash (Sandeep Parikh), a newcomer at Priya's philanthropic Kitty party, and delve into the noble cause it serves. Laddoo Auntie (Rekha Shankar) has brought the sweets for the get-together but is shocked to see Priya has invited Gharana Foods to cater the event. The high-spirited chatter only gets lighter as we introduce Namir, our half-elven explorer on a quest to reconnect with his roots, and Priya, our nature aficionado, guiding us through the enigmatic trails of Rak Tibba. Uncover the mysteries of hierarchy, culture, and language as we encounter Murkha (Omar Najam) and his adorable red panda construct, Baccha.
As we unravel the eerie enigmas of Rak Tibba and the unsettling aftermath of demi goddess Silsilan's absence, we cross paths with the mystical entity, Nooryn. Engage in a thought-provoking conversation about life's cyclical nature, while dealing with the repercussions of Silsilan's absence. Prepare to be enchanted as we team up with Priya, a wizard from the Wane School of Divination, to protect our town and embark on a journey into the woods. So, buckle up for an exciting ride full of laughter, adventure, and riveting conversations as we navigate these captivating narratives.

Join the entire cast of DesiQuest who will be doing a panel at PAX East on Sunday March 24, 2024 from 3pm-4pm in the Bumblebee Theater.
When the kettle whistles and the tea is ready, it's time for the DesiQuest after-show—and what a show it is! Omar Najam and I, Sandeep Parikh, are all cozied up inside the teapot, steaming with excitement. After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
When our very own Omar gets likened to a beloved British "muppet," you know it's the start of another memorable episode of the Tea Kettle podcast, where laughter is as essential as our next breath. Join us as we take you through the highs of our recent live event at PAX Unplugged, where the energy of our enthusiastic supporters was nothing short of electric. Feeling the love from the community, we dive into the significance of representing brown mythology in media and the indelible connections we've fostered with you, our listeners – it's a heartfelt thank you that resonates with the warmth of 850 cheering fans.
Our episode takes an emotional turn as we explore the range of tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs) and Sandeep brings a scene to life in a way that tugs at the heartstrings. We unravel the power of humor as a shield, revealing how TTRPGs offer a sanctuary for actors to navigate the complexities of their characters' lives, as well as their own. Later, we whisk you away to the unique atmosphere of Critical Role Live at Wembley, sharing candid moments and the sheer joy that comes from the unpredictability of the dice roll – proving that sometimes, a natural one can be as thrilling as a critical hit.

After every episode of DesiQuest is launched, we'll release another episode of the Tea Kettle with me and Omar and a very special guest, or guest from either behind or in front of the camera.
And who better to chat with in our inaugural episode than Jasmine Bhullar, the brilliant mind weaving the tapestry of DesiQuest. It's a laughter-filled session, where we peel back the curtain on Episode 1 and Jasmine's magical universe, a place born from the seeds of many ideas. Our conversation meanders through the gardens of creativity, where extroverted effervescence meets the tranquil depths of introversion, and we find that our differences are not just okay—they're essential for the rich tapestry of our show.
Hang on to your teacups because we're not just sipping tea; we're spilling it on the surprises that creativity often springs upon us. The unpredictability of what tickles our audience's fancy can be as bewildering as a maze in Jasmine's realm, yet it's this very spontaneity that fuels our passion. We share tales of unexpected hits and misses, and the emotional rollercoaster of bringing new content into the world. If your curiosity is piqued by this sneak-peak and you're craving to unwrap even more secrets of DesiQuest, please join our Patreon, where the rest of the conversation continues. Join us in this celebration of imagination, where every twist and turn is a story in itself.
