Who Are We … And What The Heck Is A Pickle Jar?

Meet Vasanthi Hariprakash, Pickle-In-Chief

Vasanthi is a seasoned journalist, radio host, and storyteller who can never say no to a good conversation. Legend goes that she can even talk to (and extract responses from) a rock. 

Pickle Jar, founded by Vasanthi in 2016, is an extension of her life philosophy – a little bit of everything that makes us think and feel deeply… a little bit of everyone that makes us a vigorous, thriving community. Like an Indian pickle jar, it is a mélange of ingredients, fusing into that perfect blockbuster of flavour!

Our Patrons & Partners Speak For Us

As the name suggests so piquantly, Pickle Jar curates a variety of media ideas – sharply produced journalistic pieces, curated events such as successful film festivals, virtual conferences, blogs/vlogs/podcasts, and community building events. This is one venture to look out for given Vasanthi’s relentless drive and ability to accomplish her objectives. I wish team Pickle Jar the very best!

I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful capturing of the essence of my sister [Smita Patil] in your powerfully convincing language … and for translating that love into an opportunity for everyone, including me, to palpate that love in a public domain.

I have, of course, been to many film festivals, but with the kind of warmth at the Pickle Jar Film Festival, it feels like a ghar ka function.
