The 5Q Interview with Vikram Vij
Monday, October 3, 2011 at 7:00AM A new day has come at PunamArts! Here is the very first in a series of video portraits with artists and creatives. (Electronic Media Release)
Called "The 5Q Interview", the video is more of a journey into chef Vikram Vij's philosophical bearings than a traditional interview about food and wine. With references to Mahatma Gandhi, cultural identity, sexual orientation and atheism, the portrait captures the chef's essence and life outlook in under ten minutes and in the confines of five questions.
To find out who else is lined up in the series or to find out about having your loved one captured in a video portrait, visit 5Q Interview.

This was very interesting, he has a way with words which is enlightening. I really enjoyed the clips of India when his phone rang, especially those 2 young boys singing!
Love the clip! Love it when his phone rings and its a Bollywood song - then you bring in the clips of India...beautiful!!
