पूरा सुना। दो तीन चरण में सुना। ध्यान से सुना। आप दोनों के प्रति आदर बढ़ा। बधाई। साधुवाद। भाई श्री रजत शर्मा से भारत माता मन्दिर हरिद्वार में भेंट हुई थी। आदरणीय श्री नरेन्द्र भाई मोदी जी भी उस कार्यक्रम में पहुंचे थे। आज आपके पूर्ण स्वरूप से परिचित हुआ। आपके माध्यम से, आपकी अदालत में पधारे, अनेक खास विभूतियों की खासियत भी जानी। पुनः साधुवाद। आदरेय रजत भाई के पूज्य पिताजी और माताश्री को हार्दिक नमन करता हूं।

Just respect ✊🏻… heard this on a long drive with USA 🇺🇸 born teenager of mine …. Now he knows more about Indian 🇮🇳 politics and people who rose from the ranks

Pata hi nahin chala 2 ghante kahan chale gaye watching this interview. What a good man with a great character and principles. Lucky are people who are able to associate with Rajat Sir or have him as their friend or family.

Mr Rajath ji statements felt like reading a book. The way he speaks is so soothing to listen to. A request to Rajath ji, please start a podcast of yours as well 🙏

God man, Rajat Sharma ji is a gold mine. This interview can be made into at least 10 - 15 movies or at the least documentary. This was the best of the Podcast that you have done Smitha. Extremely happy that you allowed him to speak. He tells the story like as is.

The struggles which was our parents childhood. One of the best podcasts.

I have never sat through a bollywood movie for three hours and I sat through this 3 plus hour conversation. I live in the US and I have probably watched a total of 30 minutes of AKA show but never took it seriously. Now I am a fan of Rajat Sharma and look forward to watching his archives of AKA. Wonderful interview by you Smita Prakash and I absolutely loved the chemistry between the two of you. Thanks

This is a treasure trove on Indian history around Delhi in 1970s and 1980s. So many unknown stories!

Woooow!! What an interview!? Not a single minute tiring or boaring. Excited to listen everything. Thank you for this program. Keep it up. 👌🏼👌🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏻 I think it's a longest interview in length wise?? Congratulations to you Smita. 😊😊

धन्यवाद रजत जी ! अशोक सिंहल जी के साथ मुझे १९८५ से उन के परलोकवासी होने के पहले तक श्रीराम जन्मभूमि आंदोलन में काम करने का सौभाग्य मिला आज आप का साक्षात्कार सुन कर पता चला कि अशोक जी एक शास्त्रीय संगीतज्ञ भी थे चन्दन है इस देश की माटी तपोभूमि हर ग्राम है ।हर बाला सीता की प्रतिमा बच्चा-बच्चा राम है ।। को सस्वर गाते हुए सुना था और उस का कोरस (उसे दोहराने का)भी किया था ,पर ये आप से इसे सुनते समय पता चला कि वे हारमोनियम भी बजाने मे दक्ष थे । पुनः धन्यवाद।🙏🙏

मुझे लगा था रजत जी का इंटरव्यू तो पहले देख चुकी हूं वो नया क्या बताएंगे पर कई गलत थी इतना इंटरेस्टिंग इंटरव्यू है इनकी लाइफ का तो हर पार्ट इतने एक्सपीरियंस से भरा हुआ है बहुत बहुत अच्छा इंटरव्यू

I never realized Rajat Sharma is such an excellent story teller and not to mention the difficult and humorous situations he has faced! I used to watch “Aap ki Adalat” right from the beginning when I was in primary school. This was a brilliant episode. Thanks Smita and team.

लाजवाब इंटरव्यू मैडम... पूरा शो gazab किया है आपने... बहुत बहुत बधाई

One of the best interview ever seen … thank you to enlighten about the dark days of emergency which we were unaware… The Emergency in India was a 21-month period from 1975 to 1977 when Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had a state of emergency declared across the country. On the advice of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, President Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed proclaimed a state of national emergency on 25 June 1975 .. hats off to Rajat Sharma

This interview with Rajat Sharma is not just a conversation; it’s a profound journey through the annals of India’s rich tapestry. As we navigate the intricate corridors of our nation’s past, Mr shrama’s insightful questions and revelations promise to leave an indelible imprint on the historical discourse. This is more than an interview-it’s an educational odyssey that will enlighten many, unraveling the layers of India’s political heritage and offering invaluable lessons from the chronicles of time itself. I feel blessed to be born in the era of "Aap Ki Adaalat"

Thank you Smita ji for sharing this with us. Very heart touching and inspiring.

Mr Rajat Sharma had come to the Tech Fest of IIT Kharagpur (called Kshitij) in January 2014. He gave one and half hour lecture on his life and struggles. I still remember that lecture and it continues to inspire me.

क्या ही महत्वपूर्ण एवं स्पष्ट ,मिजाज खूश करने लायक दो विशिष्ट व्यक्तियों के बीच वार्तालाप ! यह भारतीय राजनीति का आईना जैसा है । ।रजत जी ,आप का जीवन संघर्ष पूर्ण रहा किन्तु आप बडे भाग्यशाली हैं जिसे भारत के महान विभूतियों के साथ काम करने का मौका मिला है ।बहु_बहुत धन्यवाद ।

The moment when Panditji reflects on his friendship with Atalji brought tears in my eyes. His decision to cherish this friendship with simplicity until end truly speaks volumes about his values. You could feel the weight in Panditji's heart as he prioritized friendship with Atal ji over everything else & the sheer humbleness of my most adored PM Atalji as he put across his 3 points, so much power words can give, so powerful. His emotions, entwined with the journey alongside the legendary Atalji were palpable. I also liked the courage with which he shared his light popats, each time the different PMs pulled his leg. From humble beginnings to becoming a sincere leader, enduring imprisonment, and navigating the complexities of politics and journalism, each chapter was captivating. I found myself glued to the narrative for over three hours all at a single stretch. No interjections :-) to be fair there were a few but with so much of politeness & passion Panditji steered through his life account, a true treasure to share, some education to say the least! Thank you Panditji (Rajatji), Thank you Smitaji. Thank you ANI!

Probably the best podcast I’ve listened to! What a man …. Rajat Sharma…. We grew up watching AAP ki Adalat and never knew the journey. Well done, Sir!! So proud and inspired to listen to this.❤ Smita Prakash…. Well done to you too!! 🎉

This interview is a goldmine for all those interested in Indian history from the 1970s. Though I've read about the entire opposition being jailed during the Emergency hearing first person narrative gives it gravitas. Respect for genuine journalism and Rajat Sharma 🙏

Beautiful interview, Rajat Sharmaji has shared unknown interesting facets of such great people....great interview

ਮੈਡਮ ਜੀ ਜੋ ਲੋਕ ਅਣਜਾਣ ਹਨ ਉਹੀ ਲੋਕ 12 ਵਜੇ ਦਾ ਸਿੱਖਾ ਬਾਰੇ ਯੋਗ ਬਣਾਊਦੇ ਹਨ ਅਸਲ ਸਟੋਰੀ ਦਾ ਕਿਸੇ ਨੂੰ ਪਤਾ ਨ੍ਹੀ ਹੈ ਮੁਗਲਾ ਦੇ ਰਾਜ ਸਮੇ ਜਦੋ ਲੋਕਾ ਦੀਆ ਬਹੂਬੇਟੀਆ ਉਠਾ ਕੇ ਲੈ ਜਾਦੇ ਸਨ ਤਾ ਸਿੱਖ ਜੋ ਉਸ ਟਾਈਮ ਜੰਗਲਾ ਵਿਚ ਲੁਕ ਛਿੱਪ ਕੇ ਰਹਿਦੇ ਸਨ ਰਾਤ ਨੂੰ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਉਪਰ ਰਾਤ ਦੇ 12 ਵਜੇ ਹਮਲਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਲੋਕਾ ਦੀਆ ਔਰਤਾ ਛੁਡਾ ਕੇ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਦੇ ਘਰ ਪੁਚਾਊਦੇ ਸਨ ਇਹ ਹੈ ਸ਼ਿਖਾ ਦਾ 12 ਵਜੇ ਦਾ ਇਤਹਾਸ ਮੈਡਮ ।

Probably one of the honest, deep and digging interviews ever that reveals eldest & unknown sides of 70's & 80's political days CONgress Criminals & also other world of Bharat! I t's Mr.Rajat's one life, but a huge journey!

Nice to see two legends of journalism in one frame 🙏

Most ordinary people like me always believed he was an excellent tv anchor...thats all... But with this interview with Smitaji it is as if all skeltons hv fallen out from.cup board .... Eye opener he's not an ordinary person... Very interesting and genuine with a real tough childhood... Real rags to riches with abudant experience... His life biography is most ideal to be made into movie... He has become a great man in all our minds....

I thought I will hear this episode when I will have proper time. It was worth the wait!

Modiji has indeed taken the bar to another level- his comments towards the end about Modiji are so so so true .. biggest problem of our certain sections (who are also corrupt and devious) is to create news fear with promoting lies in public and creating fear about erosion of institutions under 3rd term of BJP etc etc However our public is not stupid they can now SEE and feel for themselves the real positive changes under Modiji which never ever happened under the previous governments to this extent and it s clearly evidenced by the data and numbers achieved under Modiji in last 10 years .. salute you Smota and Rajatji for this amazing session … watching this from Australia

Never knew the man who has been bringing other people’s stories to us had such a fascinating life story. Thank you for bringing it to us.🙏🏼

Smitha ji, namaskara from Karnataka. This was by far the best Podcast I've seen. I've had very huge respect for Rajat ji, but after this, he will be an example. Thank you so much 🙏

Can’t believe I watched the entire 3 hrs Panditji is absolutely amazing and his journey is super inspiring. Honestly, one can make a feature film based on just these 3 hrs of interaction 😊

Thanks ANI for covering details and not editing this to one hour. Epic.

Rajat sharma is brand of journalism...being an ABVP member , he enculcate morales, values and ethics....

आपका मै बहुत आभारी हूं कि आपने इतनी बढिया मुलाकात के लिए शोध किया, संचालन किया और निर्माण किया. आप दोनो पत्रकारोंके बारेमेमे मेरे दिलमे बहुत आदर है. स्मिताजीसे मै एक सालसे जानता हूं, रजत को तो जाहिर २०-२२ सालसे जानता हूं. रजतजी कि जिंदगीसे मेरी जिंदगी के संबंध मै लगाता गया, जब रजत जी की राजनैतिक, पत्रकारीता कि जिंदगी शुरू हुई थी तब मै नव जवान (टिनएजर १२-१५ सालका) था और १९७१-७२ से मै राजनिती समझ रहा हुं इसलिए मेरी जानकारी और रजतजी बताई जानकारीका मै मेल बनाता गया, मुलाकात देखने बहुत मजा आ गया. धन्यवाद.❤🎉

Excellent and awesome show Smita ji. Enjoyed each and every minute of it !! I was born in Delhi and retired in Delhi from a senior position. I studied commerce from the Delhi University those same years and studied in the Law centre in the exact same years as of Arun Jaitley ji. I could connect to Rajat ji on every comment and experience that he expressed. Thanks again. 🙏🙏

Amazing interview, Rajat ji is encyclopaedia of journalism and golden era of politics , Smita ji thank you very much for doing this podcast , this is a treasure ❤🙏

Compliments to Smita ji, for bringing this personal side of Panditji (Rajat Sharma). This interview changed my perception about him in a very positive way.

When I saw it’s a 3 hour long poadcast, but for Rajat sir is started and I it felt like 30 mints 🔥❤️what a journey what a life this man has seen and he deserve each thing he has now 🎉

Excellent Real life show with Truth and exposes all the oppressors Thanks all the time Indian watching from Chicago well Manners handle with wisdom and patience

One of the best interviews by Smita Prakash…both Smita Prakash & Rajat Sharma reminiscing old times especially emergency days & olden times when communication was not so simple. Smita Prakash a great anchor & Rajat Sharma a great story teller. How the Politicians & Journalists mingled with each other without rancor is also pleasing to know. Well done Smita Prakash!

1970s Delhi University Student Union elections gave gems to Bharat. Examples are many like late Arun Jaitley Ji, Rajat Sharma, Vijay Goel who went on to transform the economic, political and social landscape of India.

You did good Smita. Rajat Sharma and you both gave us a glimpse of what true values exist. Thanks.

Aisa laga ki jaise ek book padh liya. The Rajat Sharma untold story. Fantastic motivational .

Thnx brother ❤

Rajat ji & Arun ji... Such friendship is rare nowadays. 💯

I have had immense respect for Rajat Sharma but today it has leapt 100 folds higher. He didn't share what happened to his family in Subzi Mandi after he moved to Defence Colony. I salute him for being ethical, very rare journalist. I have known many journalists closely because of my work but very rare are of his kind. Its a very long interview but enjoyed A to Z in one sitting, rare for me. Thanks. Please convey my compliments to Pandit ji

Rajath Sharma jee is always superb I have been a big fan of Sir, from my childhood Today I came to know the whole Persona of Rajath Sharma Jee... Smitha jee app tho great hi You are the shaan of Karnataka. Aapaka podcast ithna simple rahatah hai ki lagtha hai Ghar me apne Maa Behan ke saath baath cheet ho raha hai. But Madam what I absorbed is day by day you are looking younger & younger that's only because of your Honesty and clean heart, Stay Blessed Both 💐 💐 💐

3 hour podcast but it’s just WOW. Rajat and Smita ji, ish podcast me kitna kuch janane ko hai. Humara desh, humare politicians, Humare leaders, transformation of Media, Transformation of Rajat ji unhi ki jawani, transformation of India, Even though mien bus Rajat ji ki baate sun raha tha, na Jane mine kitne baar muskaraya hoga. Itni simplicity se Rajat ji ne sub kuch bataya and sabhi ke swabhav ke bare me bataya wo asharaniye hai… ye podcast sünne ke baad mujhe samajh aya ki jub mujhe abhi ye itni valuable lag rahi hai to ye podcast future me kitne valuable hogi… Rajat ji aapke values and aapko Koti Koti Pranam…🙏

What a man, What a magnificent journey. From not having food on the table in earlier days to running India's one of the leading news channels. His views on Media freedom were quite fascinating to me, i have only heard about the dictatorship-kind behavior of the current government, but he opened up a whole new kind of idea, and my take towards all these allegations has changed. He has been in the industry for a very long period and his views are very appropriate I feel. His experience is teaching a lot of things to all youngsters like me, I am also an aspiring journalist, learned a lot from him. Thank you @ANI News for this podcast, and special thanks to Smita Ma'am for asking quality questions. And lastly @Rajat Sharma Sir you are an inspiration to me, thank you for unfolding deep insights about the world of journalism, Best wishes to you sir.

To all those people who complain about “undeclared emergency” today: please watch this. 1976 was the real emergency & nothing can come even close to it. Thanks to khangress.

I am from TN...not very cinversant with Hindi. Do watch S Prakash interviews...but not sure how I sat through this 3 hr interview. Mr R Sharma is a gem of a person...honest and hence found his niche in journalism. Must watch his shows now...hope there will be sub titles. Will start with this Rajesh Khanna episode. S Prakash...well done👏👏

I have NOT seen a better Storyteller than this man what an interview I saw all three hours of it Glued to this man & his words Rajat Sharma RESPECT. & that entire '70s college emergency jail taught me more than any history book or KZfaq show ever would with the way he described it.

रजत शर्मा जी वैसे तो मैं उम्र मे आप से काफी बडा हूं, लेकिन आपने अपनी आत्म कथा में मुझे बहुत रुला दिया। खैर......।

This podcast should be shown in schools and colleges... what a life, what a person and what an achievement with this podcast.... Thank you Smita.... thank you.

नमस्कार स्मिताजी, Inspirational Interview with Rajat Sharma Sir. धन्यवाद...

Muje garv he ki me 20 shal se Rajat ji ka darshak hu, proud of you Rajat Sharma ji ❤

By far one of the best episodes of 2024. Rajat Sharma ji is a Platinum mine. His experiences / learnings and his ethics are at a different level and definitely is a benchmark for all journalists . His experiences should be taught to aspiring journalists in mass communication courses. Lastly to the journalist cronies of Congress / CPM / TMC / SP etc., pull up your socks atleast now and start reporting facts of the national welfare schemes / laws instead of spreading rumors.

What a man Rajat ji is .. hats off to him . Never knew this side of his life . True Nationalist & Gem if Bharat Mata . God bless him with best of best health ❤

Amazing podcast!! What an incredible inspiring person Mr. Rajat is. Now I know why I always was drawn to his news channel only. A fine example of living life with values integrity and honesty. Thank you for sharing your life journey. A big fan!

Best personality, kind behaviour, most powerful and the guru for all the hard workings"THE RAJAT SIR"

I urge every ABVP member to watch and share this as much as you can...

ढेर सारे पॉडकास्ट सुने हैं इससे पहले! लगता है के इससे बेहतरीन पॉडकास्ट नही बनाया जा सकता! रजत शर्मा जी को सुनके लगा के जैसे वो मेरे सामने बात कर रहे हैं! उनके बोलने का अंदाज़ बिल्कुल साफ़ और किसी भी प्रकार का कोई दिखावा भी नहीं और सच बोलने का डर भी नही! रजत जी जब अपने अनुभवों के बारे में बता रहे थे तो लगा जैसे उनकी कहानी मे पूरा ५० साल पहले का भारत घूम लिया! ढेर सारा ज्ञान भी मिला! गुरु स्मीता जी आपसे भी प्यार हो गया इतना सुंदर साक्षात्कार प्रस्तुत करने के लिए बहुत धन्यवाद ❤😊🙏🏽 जय हिन्द!

Smita ji, thank you for doing this podcast. By far it was one of the best episodes. Please include subtitles in English so that non Indian can also watch and listen to this wonderful episode 🙏🏼

One thing I learn or believed from this prodcast that during the hard time, mother and father is the only strength .

It was a marathon episode, but I watched it all in one streak. It was really a top-notch episode, I must say. Mr. Rajat Sharma's journey and the values he holds as a journalist are truly commendable. He's someone worth looking up to. Hats off to him!

1बार में इतना देर कोई वीडियो पहली बार देखा,,,,, जैसे लगा आंखो के सामने 1960 से अब तक का भारत आंख के सामने से गुजर गया हो।।

Yes, I also watched this episode in a single sitting. Every student pursuing the journalism course and all young and budding journalists must watch this program.

My Childhood Hero, Loved to know him in depth. Pranam Panditji

शानदार interview, रजत शर्मा का interview सुन कर मेरा नज़रिया बदल गया रजत शर्मा के बारे में

This is how podcasts should be thank you Rajat ji. I didn't know that you are that famous in politics. In Aap ki adalat always you used to say mere dost hai. Today I got know sach me dost the ye log aapke😅😅

Wonderful factual story. Behind a great man there is a pain and patience an un told story, hard to realize. A clean hearted person, no matter of what religion, carries huge respect within and enormous guide lines to follow.

Been seeing him on the news for so many years never imagined he had such an intense story to tell himself. Incredible!

Smitaji, I have been following your podcast from Australia, it is kind my window to what’s happening in my country.. I do try and make my only daughter watch it with me as much as I can.. this show has re ignited the belief that our upbringing in the 70’s with these values of respect, honesty , professionalism and friendship. Really thankful for this long interview

Smita Prakash,my admiration for you has increased. Outstanding interview. Very moving

इतना फुर्सत तो बहुत कम लोगों के ही पास है रजत सर या तो आपके कुछ खास दोस्त परिवार या वो जो आपके दिल के करीब होंगे या आप होंगे I पर आपके बीते हुए बातेँ जितना मैं सून सका बहुत ही अच्छा लगा

I Admit And You Host Smita Prakash Host And Panelist Rajat Sharma For This Rare MasterPiece Show More Than An Interview This Show Touched My Heart And Soul Highly Appreciated 👏 💐

Absolutely enthralled by this exceptional interview! Massive shoutout to ANI and Smita Prakash Ji for orchestrating such an insightful session and sharing a full 3-hour dive with us. I was blissfully unaware of Rajat Ji's influential connections across various political spectrums until now. This piece not only serves as an eye-opener regarding the turbulent times during the emergency but also underscores a powerful message - when you stand firm in your beliefs and aim with clarity, the sky's the limit. A true testament to resilience and the indomitable spirit of pursuing one's goals, regardless of the challenges that come your way.

First time I watch a show of three+ hour without break, it was amazing to watch Rajat Sharma, and I thank smitaji for inviting such people like Rajat Sharma and shila Bhatt

Enjoying watching this episode. Has been fan of Mr Rajat Sharma for years. I didnt know that he is so influential and knows so many leaders so closely.

This podcast is Gold !! I’ve not yet seen a more interesting and at places even emotionally moving discourse as this. This is not only informative but a beautiful one. Kudos Smita Prakash and ANI

Smitha madam ನಾನು ಒಬ್ಬ,ಕನ್ನಡಿಗ,ನನ್ನ, ಹೆಸರು ಮಂಜುನಾಥ್ ಎಪಿಎಂಸಿ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು,, ವಯಸ್ಸು 68 ಇದು, ಉತ್ತಮ, ಸಂದರ್ಶನ ‌ರಜತ್ ಶರ್ಮಾ ಅವರು,ಜಿವನಚರಿತ್ರೆ, ತಿಳಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ ತುಂಬಾ ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿದೆ, ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು

रजत जी तब मैं भी University College Kurukshetra में पढ़ता था और तब जे पी आंदोलन के दौर में, जे पी जी कुरुक्षेत्र से ट्रेन से निकल रहे थे और हम हमारे University President की अगुवाई में उनको मिलने Station पहुंचे थे। फिर जेटली जी जब एक बड़े student leader establish हो गए थे और 1978 के आसपास Law College Kurukshetra में ABVP candidate के लिए भाषण देने पहुंचे थे और मैंने वो भाषण सुना था। सचमुच उनका भाषण बहुत जोशीला था।

Thank You Smitaji for this interview. This was the first time I got to know about Rajat Sharma ji.

Such an amazing story and insights Rajat provided. Thanks, Smita and team!

😢I can completely relate to Rajat Sharma's poverty but I am 20 years younger growing up in similar circumstances in Bangalore. I could relate myself to VS Naipaul's "An area of Darkness". Such was the destitution that British landed us in, after a long spell of loot by British with impunity, which was unfortunately perpetrated by Nehruvian Socialism. I could see Rajatji resisting tears in the beginning, I have my eyes wet now.

I am 52 yr old sobo lady grew up watching few shows of aapki adalat was always a mystery behind this man ….my grand dad was rss heard few stories my mom is related to RJ then law minister Atal Behari pramod Sushma Jaitley all hold tremendous respect so have grown up hearing and watching them and today watching this Rajat Sharma true to the core immense respect shows 🇮🇳🙏👏😎🙏

One of the greatest interview I enjoyed! Both host and guest are so friendly and with great connect.

Thank you for a very interesting podcast Smita. Learnt much from listening to Rajat Sharma. I was in India doing an elective in 1975 for 3 months. I've received new insight today, on many people I had read about during that time. Thank you again.

These days its difficult for people to watch movies of more than 2 hrs length, but I sat through this 3hr+ podcast and it felt like a cool breeze So smooth, so fluent, it was a breath of fresh air Rajat Ji is such a great storyteller, really loved this podcast, Thank you Smita Ji !

What a fantastic interview. I'm hooked. @Smitaji, you are not just interviewing, you are recording history for future generations and telling stories that need to be told

Jitna aapko sun raha h utna hi aapse inspire ho raha hu ki samaj kitna pagal hai, adar hum kisi bhi higher post pe ja ke kuch bhi bolo sab hum ko sunenge or hamare sath hamari patrkarita bhi hamare sath hai. Thanks sir ❤

Wonderful podcast, I put it on while I was going to sleep, but couldn't sleep for a second, so engaging. Loved every part of it.

Oh my god, can't thank enough to ANI for conducting this interview.. it was hell of a lecture, movie, documentry everything.. Got to know the real value of this men

What a guy 🙌I was in awe for full 3 hours... Freedom Fighter, Leader, Risk Taker, King maker, Yogi...Such old souls are born once every 100 years..we are blessed..Thank you Smita Ji & team for your awesome dedication, honesty & special work, may your fanbase increase many times over (you guys are also once in a century team 🙌💯) .. Jai Hind Jai Bharat 🙏

Wow watched this marathon podcast in one go. It travelled through all those years. Thanks to both of you for an enchanting conversation.

I am born in the late 90s I have no idea of what all happened during the emergency and to the extent things happened this was a great eye opener

God bless you, Shatam jeevema sharadah... Smita ji and ANI, This is the bestest greatest podcast i have ever come across. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you so much.

Enjoyed this episode. Must have been nostalgic for Smitaji also as they both belong to the same era. I too recollected a lot of things ever since the evolution of Indian television. Many of you senior journalists have stayed put due to the type of journalism they followed all these years. Thanks

Congratulations Smita Ji for doing such a wonderful pod cast with Rajat Ji. You asked the right questions and kept the flow of the conversation on the right path. I learnt a lot about the solid character and the unshakable integrity of a man that I have been admiring, watching Aap Ki Adalat, over the last few years and it has increased 100 fold. I live in Canada and never can find time to watch a movie or a program for more than three hours at a stretch. However once started, I could not stop until I finished it at 1 AM. Rajat ji gave us insight into so many famous personalities and important events that occurred over the years, about which I had a totally different view based available information here. Thank you for doing this interview. Next time I come to India, will try to meet you and Rajat ji and shake your hands. Respectfully...Mohan

Wonderful interview by Smita Prakash. Rajat Sharma's life & career profile is very motivational.
