The One With The Bollywood Dance-Off

Season 2 | Episode 22 | The One with the Bollywood Dance-Off

This week on How I Failed in Business, we're joined by the multi-talented Francis Roughly — professional actor, dancer, and creative powerhouse behind the camera as a videographer and editor.

From beating Ashley Banjo to a Bollywood role (yes, really 👀) to bringing storytelling to life through dance and editing, Francis’ journey is one of hustle, heart, and staying true to yourself in a crowded landscape.

In this episode:

The leap into dance — and how it unlocked a creative career 🕺
Landing a major Bollywood gig 😮
How movement and rhythm shape Francis’ editing style ✂️
A nostalgic detour into Blockbuster, VHS tapes, and Saturday night rituals 📼
How brutal the performing arts industry can be 🎭
Why authenticity matters more than ever ❤️

This one's packed with laughs, insight, and a whole lot of behind-the-scenes stories.

And yes, we may or may not try to recreate some interesting dance moves live on the podcast. You’ve been warned. 👀
