To Everyone Chasing a Dream…
Hands down the most honest speech I’ve ever delivered in my career. And I’ll continue the honesty here 👇🏽
This has been one of the hardest years of my career as a creative.
There have been so many moments where I’ve questioned whether I belong. Whether my voice matters. Whether the stories I want to tell are “commercial” enough. Whether I should make myself smaller, safer, more familiar. Entertaining is 10% of my job, the mental gymnastics make up 90%.
I’ve gotten so used to doing what I call a “whitewash pass” on my scripts before sending them out. I’ll remove Punjabi or Hindi words. I’ll change names. I’ll soften cultural references. I’ll catch myself wondering if a character needs to be South Asian at all. Not because I want to tell a different story, but because it feels like it might be the only way to get someone to read it. And I am waiting for someone to prove me wrong… any day now.
That’s a heartbreaking realization to have as a writer. Not to mention, as an actor, it’s so sad that my friends and I literally have conversations like, “okay if they already have that supporting role as a person of colour, then I probably don’t have a chance because they won’t have two POCs, right?”
I know I’m not the only creative who feels exhausted right now. It can feel like every “no” is trying to convince you that your perspective is too specific, too different, or too risky.
Please don’t confuse the limitations of a system with the limitations of your talent.
Your story is worthy.
Your voice is worthy.
And every time you choose to keep creating anyway, you’re making it a little easier for the person who comes after you.
And that’s what I’ll do. I’m going to keep pushing. It is so exhausting and mentally taxing… but I feel so strongly I must continue.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to audition for a role that is literally written as a white man in the script. Wish me luck!!! Fingers crossed lmao 😩

Viral Kağıtta Döner ile Dışarıda 690 TL olan Döneri, Evde 150 YL’ye YAPMAK!
Dönercide sıra bekleyene kadar… evde yap, afiyetle ye! 😌
Tek porsiyon 690 TL’ye döner mi? Biz evde 300 TL’ye 2 porsiyon yaptık, hem de mis gibi 🤌
Yaprak Döner
250 g çift çekim dana döş kıyma
Yarım soğan
1 çorba kaşığı yoğurt
1 çorba kaşığı süt
1 tatlı kaşığı kekik
1 çay kaşığı tuz
1 çay kaşığı karabiber
1 çay kaşığı pul biber
2 tane lavaş
Pirinç pilavı
• Döneri hazırlamak için Yarım soğanı rendeleyip iyice suyu çıkartın. Ardından süzgecin üzerine koyup çok ezmeden bastırın ve suyunu çıkarın. 250 g kıymanın üzerine soğan suyu, 1 çorba kaşığı yoğurt, 1 çorba kaşığı süt, 1 tatlı kaşığı kekik, 1 çay kaşığı pul biber, 1 çay karabiber 1 çay kaşığı tuz ilave edin.
• Yoğurarak karıştırın. Ardından harcı 2 eşit bezeye bölüp fırın kağıdının ortasına koyun. Üzerine bir kâğıt daha koyup iki kâğıdın arasında merdaneyle açın. Kabaca kare şekline verin. Eğer merdaneyle birlikte kâğıt da kayarsa kâğıdın altını biraz ıslatıp tezgâha yapıştırabilirsiniz. Açtıktan sonra üstteki kâğıdı kaldırın.
• Yağlı kâğıdı ortadan 4’e bölüp tavanızın boyutunca yapraklar haline getirin.
• Aynı işlemi kalan diğer harç için tekrarlayın.
• Geniş bir tavayı ocağa alıp ısıtın.
• Tavanın tabanına biraz tereyağı sürüp dönerleri yaglı kâğıt üstte kalacak şekilde yerleştirin.
• Döner pişince biraz küçülecek ve yaglı kâğıttan ayrılacak bu işlemi her seferinde tekrarlayın.
• Son olarak 1 çorba kaşığı tereyağında bütün dönerleri güzelce kavurun. Lavaş ve pirinç pilavıyla servis edince emrinize amade.
