I have listened to Lt. Gen Kulkarni across all channels and just amazed to his child-like lovely smile and split when he talks. A smiling face may be his birth-related trait but I feel, it is all his enriching experiences, love and respect from the army, his dear ones and the nation that has kept his smile evergreen. Maa Shakti bless him and all our patriots on our frontiers. Jai Hind, Vande Matram.. Good work ANI team! Bring in more of our heroes from various walks of life.
Ditto! He has child-like innocence at certain moments & then comes out as a 'toughened by fire' & highly experienced General Officer! Our Army produces legends generation after generation❤
Oh man! What an officer ❤ 1. Remebers every little detail to the point 2. That excitement in his eyes while explaining the things. 3. The pride he has regarding the ethics of Indian Armed Forces 4. The dedication he showed during his posting 5. Down to Earth and giving all the members of the regiment an equal face along with him Proud of my Jawaans, these are asli Jawan ❤ Rām Rām🙏🏻 Jai Hind 💙 Vande Mataram ❤️🙏🏻
I left India as a teenager in 1974...only to return to visit my parents for a week or two periodically until they passed away. Now I am 67 years old and listening to Gen. Kulkarni talk brought tears to my eyes. What a guy, what people, and what a country! So glad that India is now at a point where young ambitious Indians like myself don't have to go overseas and help build other people's countries. I only wish it were so 49 years ago. I know I would have never left. For me, no country can even come close to Bharat, its ethos, culture, traditions, and food. Warts and all. I am a living proof of 'you can take a boy out of India, but you can never take India out of the boy'! My salute to Gen. Kulkarni, to the Indian armed forces, and to the entire Indian nation. I will love you until my last breath. Jai Hind and "Ram Ram"!
Even after 40 years Gen. Kulkarni so vividly could recall the names of the men he led to the highest battlefield of the world. It is ingrained in the training of our officers to look out for the needs of the men they command and lead always from the front. That's what sets apart our armed force officers from other countries especially Pakistan officers who are the prime reason for its dire state of affairs nowadays.
As an Indian, I have rarely heard anything more joyous and pleasing... and told rivetingly by the sweetest storyteller one can imagine. A must watch video for every Indian.
😂 😂 😂.. Coz plenty of lies like fiction.. But in reality they miserably failed... 😂 😂 😂 And forced to sit at the highest places as plan... Coz those are death zones...
@@aamerjamal Lol... if occupation is miserable failure, then losing must be "success". That explains why the Pakistan army has ALWAYS seen "success", and why Pakistan people are happy to be ruled by losers. Clown country ruled by jokers.
Thank You Gen Saab Salute from an Army Veteran , I served that area 1979 to 82 What a FLAWLESS Conversation, No Stumbling, No Pondering or Panting for the Words. Precious if Our Present Gen Takes a Leaf out of this Great's experience
What a captivating conversation of Operation Meghadoot! Salute to Gen Kulkarni and his team. Kudos to you, Simta, and your team bringing us one of the finest podcast with extensive details..🙏
Salute this great General who gave India the great glacier field. Now I am confident that men like him will keep our mountainous terrain borders safe and defend it at any cost! Jai hind!
What a man......such a beautiful smile....this podcast is a goldmine of information......may you keep smiling always like this Sir......proud of our Indian Army......Jai Hind!!!!
Oh my God Oh my God - I never thought I would ever share experiences with Lt. General Kulkarni. Just like his dad was posted at in Indian Embassy in Karachi, my dad was posted in India Embassy Islamabad 1969-71. I can relate to the CID following our school bus to Rawalpindi and following the kids back. We had been warned not to leave school. They would follow us to markets also. We were there when the an Airplane was hijacked and taken to Lahore and ended up resulting in the war later that year. As soon as that happened going to school stopped- as kids we were thrilled. Also just like his family was part of a quick exit from Karachi in exchange for equal number of Pakistani families from India my family was also part of exchange but this was under more serious circumstances because East Pakistan (Bangladesh) had declared independence from West Pak. We were part of 5 Indian families from Islamabad to be exchanged with the Bengali families from East Pakistan they were in essence hostages because they did not want to go back to West Pakistan. Wow thanks for taking me there it’s been a long time have not thought about it. Surprised we could have similar childhood experiences.
The young generation should observe these general the way they dress, power of expression,excellent memory,physical fitness,command over the language etc etc. Hats off to Indian Army.
He is so inspiring, just like a child. So much of enthusiasm and a child like energy. The way current opposition discredits our armed forces off their contributions towards our safety and territory its humbling to see them still so motivated towards their goals and duties. No malice or no hatred. They still serve the nation with the same zing and vigour. Salute to all our heros.
Just a suggestion... never interrupt a speaker in the middle of a talk. That is rude and bad manners, most importantlyquestions your upbringing. Please be respectful. Atiti devo bhava🙏
Was great to listen to Gen Kulkarni, the first man to land on the Glacier as part of Op Meghdoot. I was priviledged to have got the opportunity to led a Battalion deployed in Meghdoot and it was also my proud privillege to meet the General while he was still in service. An amazing soldier, the way he went about narrating the genesis of the Siachen Conflict and how Op Meghdoot unfolded made a great podcast. The nation must know the military history and there are many good books also written on the subject by the veterans who were the initial stalwarts. I salute their Valour on the Frozen Frontiers and their initial ops made life much easier for the 2nd generation soldiers. However, the anchors make so many unwanted interjections that it breaks the speaker's flow of thoughts. N number of times they end up asking silly and mundane questions which, if one rewinds, have been already been answered by the general in a "crystal clear", crisp military style. It feels amusing as well as irritating at the same time. Was the gentleman trying to flash his strategic knowlegde... seemed like... sometimes some questions were pre emptend and then he ended up answering them himself. They must grant the General... for he is a subject expert and an authority having been the 1st man on ground as a young Capt and a Shaurya Chakra awardee. Let him cover the topic rather than break the flow.
Its amazing to see someone with such vast experiece and such command on language, eloquenrly narrating sotry with vast amout of info at his figertips. No stutter, no pause for recollection. My god!
Late colonel kumar and his son, late Akshay, were the ones, who started a separate vertical, MHE.. Mercury Himalayan Exploration, at Mercury Travel, They were my colleagues. Excellent guys. Vividly remember them..
I must say.... Without our Jawans we can not survive and secure our boarders.... Huge respect and thanks for such an amazing episode.. lots of love and gratitude.
What a fabulous conversation. So much to learn..just unbelievable!!!As a person in my mid sixties, I could relate to the situations then but hearing it from the horse's mouth brought goosebumps. My respects to all those who laid down their lives so that we could live safely. Deepest respect to the memories of Ramesh and Chanchal.
Yet again Smitha... a great conversation.... I am amazed how you can scale to the different bandwidths of the people you interview on your podcast, the amount of research you do and of course your pleasing personality that brings out the best of the interview 😀
I showed this video to my father and he just screamed with joy and said thats my boss. I got to know that my father served under General Kulkarni at the Army Headquarters. My dad described him as a wonderful human being, a happy go lucky person, a very efficient officer and a leader, a very humble man.
It's a request to ANI to please get more Respected Officials like Sir Lt Gen Kulkarni (Retd) from the Armed Forces, we really wanna known the true events and their struggle in depth. Jai hind and Ram ram.
Because of people like Lt Gen Sanjay Kulkarni (Retd.) and his teams, India has survived and thrived, even though we have so many enemies. Sometimes we tend to take things for granted, not realizing how many sacrifices have been given by so many people to keep our country safe and united.
I wish our so called Lutyens and Secularvaadis had the time to hear these sort of stories of sacrifices so they stop playing pakistanies in Indian garb!
I admire Smitha maam for her in-depth knowledge on the matter being discussed. Salute Kulkarnisaab for ur bravado! So blessed v r thx to our Army! Jai hind
First and Foremost really thankful to You Mam for doing this episode with Lt. Gen. Kulkarni Sir… this was super educational… and really thankful to Kulkarni sir for his outstanding service…. Deep Respect 🫡
Far from the heated argument on tv..SP you are doing a fantastic job to bring back PPL like me to get into believing in a journalist ... Real stories are what India needs now..all the best lady 🙏
The best interview so far! God! I wish it continued for for hours. Impressive! Awesome stories. And he is so modest! So proud of our defence services. Ram Ram!
Thank you mam for bringing these real heroes here to watch. I loved listening to them. Its enlightening and entertaining as well. Every persons life is better than a movie story
It's pleasure to hear our heartfelt history of our Indian army achievements and their sacrifice for nation first. Lt Kulkarni dareness, a big namaste Sir. Please invite and interview such heroes of Indian army. Jai Hind 🎉🎉
Salute and hats off to this great man, and the Indian Army! Only the truest legends can remain this humble and balanced. What a treat it was to listen to his stories! Wonderful.
Once a fauji always a fauji. The cute smiling face of Gen Kulkarni has a brave heart behind. The way you narrate things are worth listening many times. God bless you, your men, the great Indian army and our armed forces. Privileged to have such gentleman in our army .
I must accept that this was the best show I have seen on your channel. Hats off to General Kulkarni. He is inspiring and cheerful. A true officer in every sense. Blessed to have such men in uniform protecting our nation.
Very nice interview. I having trained troops in HAWS for Siachin induction in Dec1983, listened to this with great interest. Only one suggestion, had it been explained with a map at some point in time to explain various names of passes and glaciers would have made it more easy to understand for those who had no exposure to Siachin
All your episodes are really amazing, I judiciously listen to every episodes either as a podcast or on RUclips. Please do keep it up. Most of them are educational and inspirational. Feels good to learn so much.
Gen Kulkarni, you are my hero,not those cricket or bollywood types. Real hero and inspiration, company should hire this kind of individuals as brand ambassador ❤
Excellent experience to have Lt. General Sanjay Kulkarni Saheb on your show Smita ji....Today we hold a complete command over Siachin but for his selfless service only....His name will remain associated with Operation Meghdoot till the moon remains in sky...Jai Hind.
Fantastic guest. Lt. Gen. Sanjay Kulkarni…what a legend, a humble human being despite his legendary exploits! May his tribe increase! Sad that other legends like Col. Kumar and Maj. Bahuguna are no more. 🙏 Kudos to Smita Prakash and Ajit Dubey for having such an illustrious guest on the show. Glad to note that there were fewer interruptions by Ms. Prakash this time - the Gen. was allowed to narrate rather freely. Only suggestion is to have the host read up on her military guests and their key exploits before they are on the show so that the questions are more informed and can lead the guests to elaborate with their deep knowledge. What Gen. Kulkarni has narrated is of significant geopolitical importance - this fact seemed to completely escape the hosts as there were hardly any leading questions at all in this regard, despite the Gen.’s offering so many openings. Seems like each time an opportunity to learn more/fully is lost. In any case, a great episode - thank you! 🙏
What a brilliant Podcast! Loved the stories from Gen Kulkarni... huge respect for him! Jai hind 🇮🇳! 🙏 And Smita... PLS STOP INTERRUPTING THE GUESTS! 🙏😉
I am down with a fever, my nose is blocked and can't able to sleep and then I finished a 2-hour podcast without skipping at least for 5 seconds that's how engrossing is this talk by Kulkarni saab. I had tears in some occasions and I salute every Jawan for protecting our borders. To those, who say India-Pak bhai bhai you listen to all ANI podcasts and every army personnel and analysts echo the same sentiment that we are different. Jai Hind and more force to our army.
Very interesting, inspiring and informative podcast, Gen Kulkarni's energy and enthusiasm is contagious ❤..love to hear more from him. Smithaji please have one more podcast with him.
Smita Prakash and General Kulkarni, Sir, Thank you for a very informative and entertaining conversation !I watched from, Alberta, Canada which I do every day and I LOVE India my ancestral homeland! Hope I can visit India soon. What a treat!
Smithaji Firstly thank you for bringing the experience of such excellent men to your Podcast. I am not sure how to thank the men who serve the at these heights for India to scale even greater heights. I bow down to the Indian defense forces who makes the mission impossible possible at all times
What a riveting narration! Ram ram Kumaon Regiment, and Jai Hind to all brave hearts serving the nation .. Thanks a lot Smita for bringing these gems. You must do something on INS Vikrant and INS Ghazi stories from the 1971 war.
Thank you for this wonderful episode with the legendary Gen Kulkarni. I humbly request you to please try and get Lt Gen YK Joshi for an episode or two.
Wonderful interview! That’s because you, smita, allow the interviewee to speak!! I live in the US and follow the exploits of the Indian armed forces closely. Salute to lt gen kulkarni for his service!!🇮🇳🇮🇳

Was great to listen to Gen Kulkarni, the first man to land on the Glacier as part of Op Meghdoot.

An amazing soldier, the way he went about narrating the genesis of the Siachen Conflict and how Op Meghdoot unfolded made a great podcast. The nation must know the military history and there are many good books also written on the subject by the veterans who were the initial stalwarts. I salute their Valour on the Frozen Frontiers and their initial ops made life much easier for the 2nd generation soldiers.
However, the anchors make so many unwanted interjections that it breaks the speaker's flow of thoughts. N number of times they end up asking silly and mundane questions which, if one rewinds, have been already been answered by the general in a "crystal clear", crisp military style. It feels amusing as well as irritating at the same time. Was the gentleman trying to flash his strategic knowlegde... seemed like... sometimes some questions were pre emptend and then he ended up answering them himself. They must grant the General... for he is a subject expert and an authority having been the 1st man on ground as a young Capt and a Shaurya Chakra awardee. Let him cover the topic rather than break the flow.

Lots of knowledge u have provided sir now the concept is clear in my mind thanks to ani podcast
I am down with a fever, my nose is blocked and can't able to sleep and then I finished a 2-hour podcast without skipping at least for 5 seconds that's how engrossing is this talk by Kulkarni saab. I had tears in some occasions and I salute every Jawan for protecting our borders. To those, who say India-Pak bhai bhai you listen to all ANI podcasts and every army personnel and analysts echo the same sentiment that we are different. Jai Hind and more force to our army.
I served three tours in the mountains. Every word of General sir here is hitting me hard. I know what he's talking about here.
Very interesting, inspiring and informative podcast, Gen Kulkarni's energy and enthusiasm is contagious ❤..love to hear more from him. Smithaji please have one more podcast with him.
