“Both this podcast and the book on the same topic by Professor Khilnani are absolutely brilliant. I find myself going back to them year after year. Well researched and exquisitely presented, the podcast and the book overflow with novel insights. What a marvelous approach to Indian history!”

“Just loved it, Millennials would love it as it describes India(s) from the time of Buddha to Ambani. The personalities chosen and the historical nuggets about them are chosen carefully and give us the right insight than a normal historical book. Do log in.”

“I love this podcast. I’m making my way through them. However I want to notify the makers that the episode on Ambedkar is only showing a runtime of 8min for me, and cuts off at the middle of a sentence.”

“India’s history through the lives of 50 personalities is interesting and informative. The episode about Dr Ambedkar is stopped abruptly. Any technical issues?”

“Sunil Khilnani narrates the lives of people who had strong faith in themselves to change the world around them promoting liberal ideas who went unrecognised to a large extent in the present generation of intellectual Indians. The ideas of these great people can be implemented widely even today.”
