This is Dostcast Live 01, our first-ever live show. After eight years of podcasting, we put the podcast on a stage in Bangalore and spent two hours on the one industry nobody talks about in public. Niks Indian is India's most recognisable adult content creator. No script, no safety net, in front of a live crowd. The wildest thing Dostcast has done yet.

In this episode, Vinamre and Niks discuss:

• What adult stars actually earn, why only 0.5% ever make millions, and how much piracy eats into the business

• The real strategy behind going viral: knowing your audience, and why a sari outperforms everything else for Indian viewers

• Niks' subscription model, how he scouts and pays performers, and why he refuses fan video calls at any price

• Writing, directing and acting his own scenes, plus the sponsorships that funded a large chunk of his career

• How the "Niks Indian" name was a pure SEO play that still pays off years later
