Over The Unconventional Pursuit

The Unconventional Pursuit focuses on documenting the journey of full-time creatives/artists. We are interested in having conversations with individuals that are fully dedicated to their craft and have decided to pursue their dreams relentlessly. The journey to success can be difficult and often times unclear, but there’s a reason why each artist continues to push and create. We are here to explore that reason. We strive to introduce the stories and the work of various creatives while simultaneously building a community where people can forge relationships and collaborate. Join our community!

Episode 6 - Ajit Samra | Securing the Bag at HBO, Steering away from the conventional career path set for first generation children, Navigating creative fields as a POC.

Welcome back to The Unconventional Pursuit Podcast! On today's episode, our host, Kristie Taiwo-Makanjuola sat down with Ajit Samra, a Coordinator at HBO who works to ensure that over 51% of WarnerMedia's episodes/content are directed by Women and People of Color.   On this episode, we talked about  how he networked his way into HBO, his experience as a Punjabi-American who deterred from the typical career path set for many first generation children, navigating creative fields as a person of color, and his experience moving to Los Angeles.  As a Punjabi-American, Ajit strives  to discover unique stories and refine his taste, whether that means championing others stories or making his own. In December 2020, he launched a Think Tank for South Asians in Hollywood called "Ancient Haveli Entertainment." This project strives to broadcast South Asian talent and their stories. To discover more, follow their instagram @Ancienthaveli. You can expect more content in 2021. Hope you enjoy!  Feel free to give us a comment and a review down below.
