Talk Show with Harper Simon
Episode 47
Sexiest Man Alive, Waris Ahluwalia on Design, Islam and Being a Sex Symbol
Waris Ahluwalia discusses design, being a sex symbol, and how he is misunderstood for an Islamic fundamentalist-plus his unlikely meeting with Wes Anderson in this uncensored interview. From clarifying some basics about being a Sikh, to the things that an Uber driver should never say, to why everyone loves Natasha Lyonne-it is another stunningly attractive episode of Harper Simon’s TALK SHOW.
