Shamita Siva on Breaking Boxes and Owning the Spotlight

Arts, Music, Performing Arts, Society & Culture, TV & Film

Melbourne’s own Shamita Siva (aka Shamita Sivabalan) joins Tamzyn and Monika on JOY Breakfast to talk all things Good Cop Bad Cop, representation, and rising through the ranks in an industry that hasn’t always known what to do with someone like her.
In this warm and powerful chat, Shamita shares her journey from local stages to landing a major role on Good Cop Bad Cop, her fight for more inclusive storytelling, and why she’s done with fitting into industry boxes. We also dive into her award-winning dance film Twin Flame, her role as Artistic Director, and what’s next for this unstoppable queer Malaysian Indian Australian artist.
