Interview with Swati Thiyagarajan

Swati is one of India's best known environment journalists. She was the environment editor at NDTV for a decade and her show Born Wild, is the longest running wildlife and conservation show on a news channel of which she is presenter, researcher and script writer. Swati spends her time between India and South Africa. Her main interest is in exploring shared spaces between humans and animals and believes that greater co-existence in the coming years will be the only way to save the wild. Having spent most of her time in land forests, the underwater forests are in some ways a new thing for her. Here she shares some of her insights on the seaforest, getting used to the water, a personal account of her experience watching Craig form a bond with the octopus and what it was like to view the filmmaking process of My Octopus Teacher unfold.
