When luxury fashion house Prada featured Kolhapuri-style chappals without acknowledging their Indian origin, it sparked an important question: Where’s the credit?

Malishka speaks with a Mumbai-based Kolhapuri chappal seller whose family has been crafting this footwear for over 60 years. Together, they discuss heritage, craftsmanship, and the ongoing fight for recognition in a world where global fashion often borrows — but rarely credits.

This episode is a tribute to Indian artisans, and a reminder: tradition isn’t just trendy — it’s legacy.

Morning No. 1 Malishka

A jock that has been on air for more than 10 years. She is by far the most liked and most feared jock in the country. Over the last 10 years, Malishka has become one with Mumbai revolutionizing its Mornings. If she gets you laughing with her carefree conversations, she also makes you seriously change your perspective to act on issues concerning your life and city! Malishka is the youngest Radio Jockey in India to have won more than 10 awards.

Her fluent local style and delivery has been a trademark of Mumbais lingo. She has more followers on social media than any other jock. Malishka has an attitude that is completely “Bajatey Raho”. She doesn’t spare anyone on air, whether it is the Commisioner of Police or a celebrity who has done something wrong, in her own style. She calls PMO’s office and cracks a joke but immediately in the next link she calls the BMC officer to follow up on the city’s cause that concerns the listeners.

Along with this Malishka's show is known for helping the underprivileged through her programme “Bajao for a Cause”. She’s feisty yet sensitive with an ability to connect with anybody about anything. A jock with a unique perspective, she is the darling of the masses. As she always says “Ek baar listener ko commit kar diya, toh management ki bhi nahi sunungi” All in all, Malishka is the number 1 jock of India and the reasons are clearly written above.
