pdxguptaAbsolutely brilliant!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!

pdiddly1995ambedkar episode is cut offI 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.

zaphod007WonderfulThe series is well produced, Prof Khilnani has an engaging voice and the content is superb. Even for someone who is well versed with Indian history, this series offers a lot of insight and commentary that is not easily accessible or taught by school grade textbooks. It is decidedly not hagiographic, which unfortunately tends to be the case with many accounts of exotic India and I really enjoy the social insights. If I had to find a negative, it would be that the episodes are too short! I wish they were longer!
