About

Roti, Kapda aur Makaan is talking about the essentials of life- the food that carries our culture, the clothes that define us and the concept of home. It's a conversation about the experiences of finding a new home, preserving a culture and missing food that you grew up with. Because all of us have untold stories. It's about sharing recipes, finding identity through clothes and making a house a home.
