Tomorrow, Today

A legendary surname can open a chapter, but it cannot write the entire story.
In this episode of Tomorrow, Today with Shekhar Natarajan, actor Neil Nitin Mukesh opens up about the personal experiences, family values, and professional challenges that have shaped his journey.
Born into a family deeply connected to Indian music and cinema, Neil grew up with the legacy of his grandfather, the legendary singer Mukesh, and his father, singer Nitin Mukesh. But behind the legacy were stories of sacrifice, financial struggles, responsibility, and a family that valued togetherness over material comfort.
Neil reflects on the influence of his father, the importance of preserving his family's name, and the process of finding his own place in an industry where assumptions about your background and appearance can shape how others perceive you.
The conversation moves beyond celebrity and explores the human experiences that often remain unseen: rejection, discipline, family responsibilities, personal growth, and the determination to keep moving forward.
Neil also shares perspectives on the changing landscape of cinema, the opportunities emerging in different film industries, and how artificial intelligence could influence filmmaking and the preservation of artistic legacies.
IN THIS EPISODE:
• Growing up in the shadow of a legendary musical legacy
• The sacrifices and responsibilities that shaped the Mukesh family
• How financial struggles influenced Neil's childhood and outlook on life

What happens when you are injured, alone, far from help, and suddenly forced to confront the possibility of death?
In this powerful episode of Tomorrow, Today, Shekhar Natarajan sits down with surfer, entrepreneur and survivor Álvaro Vizcaíno, whose extraordinary experience in Fuerteventura changed the way he understood fear, survival and the meaning of life.
In 2014, Álvaro fell from a cliff while exploring the coast of Fuerteventura. He suffered severe injuries, including a fractured pelvis and a damaged hand, and found himself stranded on a remote beach with no easy way out.
For more than 48 hours, he battled pain, dehydration, fear, hallucinations and exhaustion. Eventually, survival meant doing something that seemed almost impossible: getting back into the ocean and swimming toward the unknown.
But this conversation goes far beyond the accident.
Álvaro reflects on the moment he stopped fighting, accepted what was happening and experienced a profound shift in his relationship with fear. He explains why fear isn't necessarily the enemy, why acceptance can sometimes be more powerful than resistance, and why the next step matters more than knowing the entire path.
From surviving a life-threatening accident to finding a new sense of purpose, this is a conversation about resilience, courage, consciousness and what it truly means to live.
