The much-anticipated Love Lingo Season 2 is now live with its first episode, marking the return of one of India’s most heartfelt and thought-provoking podcasts. Hosted by Jas Sagu and Arsala Qureishi, the series continues to explore the evolving language of love, identity, and culture through unfiltered, deeply personal conversations.
In the premiere episode, actor Kubbra Sait takes center stage to unpack the idea of the “good girl gone bad” — not as rebellion, but as evolution. With her trademark warmth and candor, she reflects on breaking free from societal expectations.
“Good girls don’t talk to boys. Good girls don’t wear lipstick. Good girls just listen,” Kubbra recalls from a childhood poster. “But none of that exists in my life anymore. I’m not living by the Gregorian calendar, not by rules that tell me when to marry or when to be happy. I learned how to swim at 30, to dive into the open ocean — and that’s what freedom feels like.”
Her reflections echo the podcast’s core philosophy — that choosing oneself should never come with judgment, and that true freedom begins when women reclaim their timelines, voices, and choices.
The episode also revisits Kubbra’s iconic portrayal of Kukoo in Sacred Games. Co-host Arsala Qureishi lauds the role for its groundbreaking sensitivity: “You gave people who are transgender a belief system — that they could be comfortable in who they are, and the world will still love them. Hats off to the team of Sacred Games.”
Kubbra responds with characteristic humility: “I think Anurag… Anurag wrote it so well,” she says with gratitude. “Nothing is created in isolation, only in collaboration. I was very fortunate to be in the right place at the right time — and to have the intuition to not say no. Imagine working with a recipe that has Anurag Kashyap and Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Can I wholeheartedly say that I trust the people I am working with as a collaboration, as a culture? Yes. Great.”
Her words capture the spirit of Love Lingo — courage, collaboration, and emotional evolution. Season 2 continues the show’s tradition of going beyond surface stories to explore the heart of human connection — where real conversations challenge norms, celebrate authenticity, and leave listeners moved long after the episode ends.
