Listen to this….Sunday night, 10pm
A heads up for those of you who like your jewellery of the Bollywood variety…for we have a famous Indian designer maker in our midst!
Tusheeta David’s work can be seen at the School of Jewellery right now as part of Flux, but before she studied in Brum she was a successful designer maker in India, where she designed all of the jewellery for the major Bollywood movie Paheli.
It was even nominated for an Oscar for best foreign language film. Not bad eh?
It demonstrates the truly international feel of the festival this year - from Oslo and Tokyo to Bangalore, all via Birmingham, of course.
Here’s a picture of Tusheeta’s jewellery being worn by some of Bollywood’s biggest stars Shahrukh Khan, Rani Mukherji and Amitabh Bachchan.
She’s no doubt got some fascinating stories about her life in India - and you can hear about it when she chats to Midlands Today presenter Satnam Rana on her weekly radio show - Midlands Masala - this Sunday on BBC WM, that’s 95.6fm.
If you miss it - and you’ve got no reason to, the telly on a Sunday night’s rubbish - you can listen again for the next week at www.bbc.co.uk/wm. Just click on listen again and then choose Midlands Masala.
