What happens when we step outside our own understanding of identity and embrace the messy, beautiful, and sometimes contradictory stories that shape us? In this episode of Immigrantly, host Saadia Khan sits down with writer and television executive Nayantara Roy to explore the intersections of storytelling, belonging, and cultural memory.

From navigating multiple worlds as an immigrant to uncovering the power of secrets in fiction, Nayantara shares insights from her acclaimed novel, The Magnificent Ruins, and her upcoming book, Sisters of a Halved Heart (coming Spring 2026). She also discusses the complexities of code-switching, the joy of language, and how her work in television influences her creative process.

Nayantara and Saadia dive into the emotional weight of representation, the evolving nature of happiness, and whether some stories are best left untold. It’s a deeply personal and thought-provoking conversation that will leave you reflecting on your own narratives.
