He also personifies the strength in diversity of India. In 1971 BD war, our Army Chief was a Parsi - Maneckshaw, our Air Marshal was a Muslim - Idris Latif, our commander on ground in East Pakistan was a Sikh - JS Aurora, our man who captured Dhaka was a Jew - JFR Jacob.

@Humbal Hiren In islam there is no concept of force conversion of any religion,Quran teaches the respect of other religions and their followers, if some one do force conversion, he might be a Muslim by name only, simple.
The thing that I noticed the most was his memory. He gave such detailed accounts of the incidents from Maniben sitting cross legged with a brown fountain pen to his brief encounters with Mrs.Gandhi. I'm amazed the man could remember everything at this age. What an absolute leader !! What charms !!

The quintessential parsi humor is right there. I live in Navsari, a town dominated by Parsis in past and I can say i was lucky to be tought by Parsi teachers. Their honesty, cheekyness, punctuality and meticulousness are class apart!
I think you are lucky to have lived in Navsari. I visited Navsari about 10 years ago. Quite an interesting little town and saw few Parsi families. I visited a local library where a librarian actually showed me a very old book Zoroastrian history and religion and was written in old Persian script. I was actually quite disappointed by the way the librarian treated the book. I wish Indians take more care in preserving various aspects of history and artefacts in public places. But funnily enough the librarian treated me like I was a foreigner but in a good way the moment I told her I was Tamil Nadu. I think it’s a bit sad to see Parsi community dwindling and disappearing from the face of India!
@@jaskatpon1 well, we can't do anything about it since, their religion doesn't allow them to marry someone from outside their religion or even convert.
It’s ironic that the comments section is filled with praises for the general but did the government in power at the time of his passing away, didn’t even bother to give him a state funeral. This man served the Indian from the pre independence days to after independence. Salute to you sir.
Please don't use his name to spread your false agenda . State funeral was given to him at Wellington in TN .There was only a single minister present in his ceremony and NONE from any central opposition party at that time . He was buried in the Parsi cemetery in Ootacamund (Ooty), Tamil Nadu, with military honours , adjacent to his wife's grave.
As an Irish man living in the UK I have to admit that I had never heard of the man but I have been taking on board all the recent media posts and he seems to be a deeply impressive military leader along with being a very decent man
An man of rare personality - good human being with cool temper and wits, a fearless and bold army general, has the openness of treat people equally regardless of colour religion friend enemy, spotless patriotic; all combined in one person. Our nation is very much blessed to have such a great man. A very big Salute Sam sir

At this ripe age also, he is clam, composed, confident and very very young... A legend we will always miss. We dearly need another Manekshaw right now...
These are the some of few men who really shaped India, their valor and dedication to serve the motherland really paved a way for today's India. Salute to you sir for your work..may you RIP.

every time i click on this.. i end up watching the entire video.. and i have watched this multiple times... what a gem of a person... and what splendid times, when the leaders & soldiers talked with no filters and could discus matters of national interests without caring for a 'post retirement' career or caring for vote banks
They don't make a lot like him these days. A true hero and a gentleman. I salute and bow to you Field Marshal. 🙏RIP🙏. A remarkable piece of history for India and a great interview.
In these 18 minutes I got many important informations where I would have spent a week to read in the books. Damn this man lived in all the crucial days of our history and it's a feeling that can't describe by words to see someone's narrating the real experience from long gone.
Bhakts destroyed proper debates and interviews. It's funny how they are praising him here while not considering that he treated pakistani soldiers like his own. I hope those fools won't ignore it nd learn from him
I like his nature , and comes to know various things about him and what I have to adopt in myself & i.e - 1) calmness in every situation 2) experience pays off 4) read the situation before jumping onto it 5) perseverance and staightforwardness 6) gentleman qualities 7) take upon any situation bravely 8) belief that after our hardwork and smartwork , everything will be fine - thank u❤🎉

State funeral was given to him at Wellington in TN .There was only a single minister present in his ceremony and NONE from any central opposition party at that time . He was buried in the Parsi cemetery in Ootacamund (Ooty), Tamil Nadu, with military honours , adjacent to his wife's grave.
As an Irish man living in the UK I have to admit that I had never heard of the man but I have been taking on board all the recent media posts and he seems to be a deeply impressive military leader along with being a very decent man
BANGLADESH love you forever sir sam💝💝..respect and lots of love from 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
salute
Your burns are not healed yet 😜😜 it's been 50 years lol...

Manekshaw, a man so masculine that a prime minister became a girly woman in his presence. What a badass! 😂🤣
Exactly superb
So lame that a girl will become a boy after reading the comment.
Not any PM, the iron lady of our country 🙏
@@rufu7787 who brought emergency, nationalisation of banks, all bad deeeds

An man of rare personality - good human being with cool temper and wits, a fearless and bold army general, has the openness of treat people equally regardless of colour religion friend enemy, spotless patriotic; all combined in one person. Our nation is very much blessed to have such a great man. A very big Salute Sam sir
great man, respect from heart. "Never punished any soldier this is my achievement"
It's like we never want this clip to over... just keep on listening with him speaking... such a charismatic persona
Back in 2007 when I was 8 at MH Wellington I saw a pale funny looking granpa in a wheelchair. If only I knew who he was back then.
Lucky
@@banibakshi2512 Mr.Scott you are a lucky man to get a glimpse of him.
So lucky man,feeling jealous.
Ohhh i feel jealous

I'm flattered! He is soooo polite, cool and energetic even at this age! His sense of humor made me fall in love with him😅❤
So much respect for him!!
Don't fall in love with him, he is too old for you...
I think this happened to indra Gandhi ji as well..😃😃
Not a single day passes when I don't hear him. His words, his voice puts so much life in me. What a great man !!
@@thegreypill9507 love means you don't your mother
@Tss ni yeahh😄❣
He narrated stories like my late grandfather. He is our pride🙌🙏
Same way my grandfather delivered his army tales of 1971 war and many other operations 😄 and stil he tells and everytime I listen it as I never had 😁
A person who played remarkable role in military operations undertaken in post independence India.
Every boy's dream : telling stories to grandchildren about thier own bravery .. It is the most beautiful feeling in the world Either in listening or in telling ..Great ..if you want to gain honour for your community /ethnic groups ...work like parsis totally non violent inside country but protective on border
.....love your country and citizen of country too ...serve country honestly in every field .... Work hard and honestly ..make country great (make liveable more than this ).
So true, Jadhav Rana would be very pleased to hear what the Parsis did for us all these years.
@@dutcheastindies8354 bro i suscribed your channel .. don't close your channel in future ..you have awesome videos
@@ramaam1998 ooo Good ..my grandma used to tell me about her young days story ..how she used to go to pond to swim with her friends and used to come home singing song ..i used to wander that how girls were roaming without fear in British era ..ohhh thanks for reminding me of my grandma ..I miss her so much
Same about jains
@@AshutoshKumar-dh5fq Bro the Dutch East Indies channel doesn't have any video what videos are you talking about?
Getting goosebumps just by thinking how lucky his grandson would be
The guy taking the interview is his grandson ❤❤
i smiled through whole video serving such a huge responsibility with such an ease with a seasoning of humor on it. an inspirational person with a humble character.great regards to this soul.
True professional soldier. No hatred against fellow humans even if they are from ‘enemy’ army.
If "Legends Never Die " had a face it will surely be his.
Wow. Such a raw interview!!! Living through history by the glimpses of such a great personality is such a humbling experience.
Watched this video on 27 Aug 2022. Regret not watching it earlier.
Jai Hind.
What do I say.... His charm is mightier than his rank of Field Marshal!
Salute to Sam Bahadur for his selfless service to Mother India, No doubt, He's one of the favourite son of Mother India>>>
At this ripe age also, he is clam, composed, confident and very very young... A legend we will always miss. We dearly need another Manekshaw right now...
These are the some of few men who really shaped India, their valor and dedication to serve the motherland really paved a way for today's India.
Salute to you sir for your work..may you RIP.
He's one of best person to have as grandpa and a Army chief.
So many stories growing up.
His grandson is so lucky
Beautiful interactions and conversations between the people who made my country, make me realize , how strong , educated , lovely, funny, non-greedy and United as a family they were. I feel more at ease than listening to any other moral texts and sounds.
He was a true gentleman & an excellent professional who has earned respect even among his enemies.
Certainly a classic piece of interview to remind the younger generation about turbulent history through which we have come so far.
16:37 the song in the background is called "Sam bahadur". It's a martial song composed by the legendary L.B Gurung to honour him.
Man with integrity.. Man with a mission.. A secular man.. A man who loves everyone regardless of religion.. Man who conquer enemy and forgive them. This man is precious.
I like that relationship between grandfather and grandson. What an honor to know the thoughts and life of such a great and accomplished Indian.
Absolute legend sir Manik Shaw ❤
As a Bangladeshi I have huge respect for this man 🇧🇩❤️🇮🇳
ARMY men has aura no one can defeat
I feel so proud about him
Maybe I am so small to feel proud
It brings joy in heart and little tears in my eyes
What our soldiers have done or doing for us is unmatchable
I salute every soldiers and want to thank them from bottom of my heart
Thank you brut for posting this
This is ❤️
Brut India ., You are really doing a Great job !! 👏👏👏👏
Hands down... The greatest man who'll ever walk this planet. I don't think anyone can ever live up to his standards ever again.
How cultured people were those days look how well a interview was done.
When the stories are purely real , you narrate so well .
The pride and happiness in telling your grandson about your life story and legacies is beyond limitations. Sir sam is a true icon ❤
If " Veer Bhogya Vasundhara " Had a face.
@@mohyalforhumanity1735 Rajputana regiment saved Gurkhas in Kargil. At last all are Indian Army and don't ever say Rajputana regiment or Batallion is less than any other regiment. Rajputs are most fierce warriors in history. Salute to all gurkhas and every person in army and India who're not corrupt and are doing service for the nation.
@@mohyalforhumanity1735 Rajputs are born warriors if you are trying to prove superiority. My brothers and family fought every war from WW1 to Galwan faceoff, where we lost our relative. So don't try to prove superior to one from another. Respect Indian Army. "Verr Bhogya Vasundhra"
@@akashbhadouria6727 @Mohyal for humanity
Did my comment said, reply your fav regiment names here and fight on which regiment is better?
@@mohyalforhumanity1735 Mughals were themselves half rajputs
@@mohyalforhumanity1735 Gurkhas are known for their bravery but rajputs are no joke......only reason they lost to mughal were their sky high ego for other kings,there are lot of battles in which rajputs defeated mughal too.
Besides mughals always found their allies in this land.....
Thnx to their manipulation power.
But saying Rajput are cowards is the biggest joke u can make.
Most of the sikh gurus were rajputs
Let's not talk about who stopped mughals attack since 700ad
Sikhs Rajput's jaats gujjar were warrior races of ancient India.
And i will not make a statement without proof
Go check highest no. Of param veer chakra won by which caste.
However tym has changed
And we shud talk about army now not individual caste.
Or use that for motivation only not to disrespect other.
Jai hind k sena
Raja ramchandra ki jai
Always fear and respect an old man in a profession, where people die young.
Facts
This interview is insane, my words what a personality.....hats off to a great man!
Such a pleasant surprise...hats off to this man..I have been a great admirer of him from my school days..my father used to tell me so many stories of him and that glint of joy my father had in his eyes while talking about him, it justifies this man...I am in so much awe for him...
I can never get over or be bored by listening him . What a great personality.
The aura and his presence can be felt even while just watching this interview, what a personality!
every time i click on this.. i end up watching the entire video.. and i have watched this multiple times... what a gem of a person... and what splendid times, when the leaders & soldiers talked with no filters and could discus matters of national interests without caring for a 'post retirement' career or caring for vote banks
such an inspiring personality.........didn't want this interview to end.......sir, the nation salutes you
What a MAN and what a SOLDIER he was! Amazing, amazing leader.
Patriots never die, they live in our hearts.
Born from Mother India.
Bravehearts🇮🇳
We will fight, & fight to win.
Jai hind 🇮🇳❤️❤️❤️
I am a Muslim Pakistani and I admire the professionalism and class of Sam I mean damn man what a legend !
They don't make a lot like him these days. A true hero and a gentleman. I salute and bow to you Field Marshal. 🙏RIP🙏. A remarkable piece of history for India and a great interview.
Q: Describe Sam Hormusji Framji Jamshedji Maneckshaw in one word.
A: CLASS
Wow! Such an inspirational personality, candid, upright and fearless
someone who could stand shoulder to shoulder with sir subhas chandra boss❤❤
In these 18 minutes I got many important informations where I would have spent a week to read in the books. Damn this man lived in all the crucial days of our history and it's a feeling that can't describe by words to see someone's narrating the real experience from long gone.
Same. I watched all this history for over a month and this interview in 18 mins has it all.
When interviews where beautiful and calm and questions where without taking into consideration on politics.
It's his grandson btw
You can find such interviews in RSTV
Bhakts destroyed proper debates and interviews. It's funny how they are praising him here while not considering that he treated pakistani soldiers like his own. I hope those fools won't ignore it nd learn from him
Sam manekshaw closely resembled in physical shape and behaviour to Iftikhar takkur ( A Pakistani comedian), just Google it you will be surprised.
I like his nature , and comes to know various things about him and what I have to adopt in myself & i.e -
1) calmness in every situation
2) experience pays off
4) read the situation before jumping onto it
5) perseverance and staightforwardness
6) gentleman qualities
7) take upon any situation bravely
8) belief that after our hardwork and smartwork , everything will be fine
- thank u❤🎉
One of the best soldiers India has produced - SAM Bahadur
5:10 this brings tears to the eyes. Kindness has the power to wash away hatred
The man was almost 90 in this video and look at the composure in voice.
