Guys chill, Karan Thapar is doing his job of interviewing Shashi Tharoor in an interrogative manner. It doesn't mean he is not aware of the facts or believes the British was good for India. He would make a good defense lawyer perhaps. Just doing his job... Actually any foreigner watching this interview will consider this more credible than an interview conducting by a biased interviewer who only agrees and does not question.
Never seen Thapar this humble after an interview. Never seen Tharoor this excited and alert in an interview. Both of them bought best of each other in front. However, this interview proved Tharoor is a genius, one of a kind.
I m surprised why people are abusing Karan here. It's critical to take opposite stance in an one on one interview to bring the other person's views to the surface. Use your brains if you have any
+ha ha ha ....Karen Rapper is a nightmare...for those....Modi modi...a never forgettable interview with our great great...😅😅😅😅...world leader...or Dealer😆😆😆😆...I feel thirsty...water...water...then then....we all know what happened.....he ha ha ....modi ran away...just because ...isliye bhai or behno...bhagna chahiye ki ....maaki bhosada...stupid illiterate blind bhakths....do not know how The notorious rss servers as "sipayees" under The British Empire...and who delayed independence....
Pls note a dumb interviewer cannot bring out the verybest from the best unless he himself is smart with having knowledge himself. Yes it’s right that Mr Modi ran away from Karan Thapar’s Inyerview. 😀
we don't have one, gone with the wind. Surprised to have an Eisenstein in India. Rongside. Silent method of advocating Infiltrators and advocating them, needs some justification. I look everyone who came to Indian soil without Indian´s permission as terrorist. They were terrorist nothing else. The difference is that they got good dress, suited and booted.
@@purushothamjames9960 karan thapar has been ostracized after 2017 for asking questions about 2002 riots, in 2007.narendra modi was caught in a difficult position by karan thapar in his famous show, "the devils advocate"
Despite being an ardent BJP Supporter, I truly admire the confidence and impeccable communication skills of Mr. Tharoor. His persona could even feel elite inferior to themselves.On the funnier site, If in future, he ever got to be nominated as next PM, then apart from Parties Manifesto, Oxford Dictionary will also be provided to understand his speech.
Great debate - grand old Indian style. Shashi has brought a much needed discussion among Indians and very refreshing view points regarding the famine in Bengal to many people who were not aware of such atrocities committed by Sr. Churchill. Fortunately for the people in Kerala (s. India) did not suffer any major famine, during British rule. In-fact the Christians in South Kerala were excused from direct British rule and were ruled thru a puppet Hindu king of Travencore.
The best interview I've seen in years. Impartial, thought provoking and informative. I'm pretty sure Tharoor seems happy to debate with him. I do wish he gave Tharoor opportunity to defend his points each time though
Karan Thappar is mischievous to bring about current issues faced by NDTV charged with being rather hugely mischievous and abusing it's freedom. It is best for a good interview to avoid questionable current biased view. Glad to see Tharoor teaching slippery Karan who obviously is selective in his interpretation. Karan should learn British Parliamentary Democracy. Democratic ideas were hugely practiced AND understood in India long time back. Giving a name is just playing semantics.
Dr Tharoor has proved his metal Karan Thappar may be the best ever interviewer in India. Now and then we should have such illuminating luxuries. Dr Tharoor has brought out very well the harm the British Raj has done to India. It seems that the positive contributions of British rule have to be further analysed and studied by Dr Tharoor as Thappar has provoked during the interview We are greatly privileged by these great erudite minds
Myself very fond of reading Agatha Christie, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Dan Brown and some what it's influence me in browsing Shashi Tharoor. Waiting for his autobiography. "Into the mind of an educated Indian politician" might be the best book ever written on Suspense.
In this conversation I would like to conclude that mr.tharoor has extremely incredible suggestions and point of views,opinions had revealed based on British empire and government of India perhaps it seems to be an extraordinary conversation I had seen first time in my life....thank u both.
Mr Karan Thapar, Indian industries were wiped out not just because of so called "competition". India was DEINDUSTRIALISED FIRST before textile and steel technologies were taken to Britain and made as twin engines of so called industrial revolution
Mr. Thapar should kindly let his guest speak out. The style of the interview is rather hysterical. Though, is the gift of the English language worth millions of Indian deaths?
Pertinent questions and brilliant answers. British rule was really an era of darkness. Whether the sun sets on the British soil or not, the British never showed Indians the sun ( the light) during the British colonial rule. If our blood were black in colour, we would experience even blood discrimination.
Hey guys violence or non violence. The British had robbed dry the nation over 200 years and it was not economically worth keeping. It was simple business decision. The same goes with other colonies. It is rather disingenuous to suggest Indians were united only because of English. Only a tiny fraction is linked with this and alternatives were in place long time before.
People say that likes of Rajdeep and Ravish are confident and best journalist,but Karan Thapar is above all these childrens,his style of journalism is best in the world.
It's really extraordinary that they mention Stalin and Mao's killings compared to Britain's 3.5 crore murders in India but they miss out comparing him to Hitler. Hitler killed 60 lakh jews. Churchill killed 40 lakh Indians in 1943 in the Bengal famine while Hitler was killing 60 lakh jews at the same time. The difference in their treatment is massive.
those getting angry at karan thapar... wait.. Shashi nailed it in last sentence with usual charm... "anglophelia"... that's what quintessential classic army brat like Thapar gets to be.
It will do a lot good for a country to have leader life Dr. Shashi Tharoor and it will 100 times better he be the Next Congress President to lead the political out fit today orphended by Raul Gandhi.
Karan Thapar, the British did not leave India due to nonviolence. The declassified British documents speak clearly that the Redfort Trials then subsequent Navy revolt & nation wide protests led to India's Independence. And, British did not unite India, there are historical evidences the in earlier empires also nearly the whole subcontinent was 'administratively' united. British rather did every thing to divide us, like the caste based census, where the legitimized the system.
gud discussion..! i would like to point out that the world went bit sober and hesitant to indulge in barbarisam after world war 2 , and had kinda started giving value to human rights etc . Gandhiji's non violent movement etc were spot on for those times due to the millions of human life lost in World War .1 & 2 .
Yes....perhaps a book on it...but it was were more hand in the glove during mughal rule, many mughals fought n imprisoned their own blood for power, many indians betrayed other indians for jobs in the mughal courts and armies...
When two incredibly erudite personalities slip in snide attacks at each other and at the same time acknowledge the other's intellect, it definitely makes for an entertaining debate. And a lovely way to pass 32minutes and 23 seconds during Lockdown.
Mostly because the ill effects of the Raj were less felt in Kerala (more specifically Kochi and Travancore) because they had signed treaty of subsidiary alliance (fancy name for puppet control)
I was in Britain for a number of years for my studies but I have noticed even today British historians do not accept India's contribution for the Industrial Revolution or the wealth accumulation or the famines created by the British. If someone raises these issues, they get angry and they say these are Marxist propaganda.
Dipak Basu ::: I don’t know the details as I am non-British, but I believe most British people have no clue about the monstrosity of the British colonial activities in India. So their arguments are based on ignorance.
Karan Thapar stop harping on fancy words like democracy and rule of law. Hindu civilization then, had a much-sophisticated rule called "Rule of Dharma" which your pea sied brain can never comprehend. Moreover western "controlled" democratic system offers freedom and security as privileges NOT as entitlements. Emergency in India is an example to show how flawed western "state controlled" democratic model is which we blindly copied
It's disgusting to see a supposed Indian (Thapar) speak like this about the atrocious British occupation. It's bizarre to see people like that. A real phenomenon. Zero self respect.
Another factor, which i think is a big one, is the invetion and industrialzing of UKs industry whereas india was still based on labour intensive practicies, and this is well before indian colonialism.
If anyone is interested u can read an economic history of India by Rajni Palme Dutt. Not a political book at all but it opens ones eyes on the subject.
This talk is two brains reaction hidden is churning out viewers tastes might be variable wether butter or lassi appeal them entire is their's choice. Thanks both dignitaries for valuable imparting of facts..
27:45 well I think one could argue that the road to the nonviolent movement of ghandi against British colonization was paved in part by numerous riots and violent instances of resistance in the 19th and 20th century and that instead of ghandi appealing to British morality through his nonviolent movement that it was also a result of British exhaustion with the subcontinent.
My god people are missing the point of this interview. Thapar is playing the devil's advocate, in fact that's what his previous show was called. He is merely presenting the opposing view point, one that the empire apologists often use so that Tharoor can counter them. That does not mean he himself supports that pov. P.S. I'm not a fan of Thapar, not even close.
History & English both lectures covered in 1 video.. Nevertheless, 9mins into d video n i ws already feeling depressed, as to how British ruined our economy. I got more content/information than our academic syllabus..
India or then hindu civilization was also the largest manufacturer and exporter of high grade steel in addition to Textiles which later became twin engines (Steel and textiles) of so called Industrial revolution
This conversation should be a part of english syllabus of board exam...Human dictionary

This is the correct way to look at it
Karan Thapar is just being the Devil's Advocate because that's how an argument can take place.
Exactly. A good journalist is meant to play the devil’s advocate.
Hello, the British are still not good to the Indian people, they are racists to this day!
@@shambhala3090
Still true
Two oxford dictionaries at talk, no one lack words and both are heating up this talk!! really entertaining! :D
LOL
Subtitles must needed
Lol , but Mehdi Hassan in Oxford Union is best.
I like this comment ... It makes me laugh ... How relevant is this comment !!
Lol 😂 true
Never seen Thapar this humble after an interview. Never seen Tharoor this excited and alert in an interview. Both of them bought best of each other in front. However, this interview proved Tharoor is a genius, one of a kind.
Tharoor's book has been criticised by every historian who reviewed it.
Fr❤
This is called a "balanced interview". Only like how Thapar can do it! #ThaparMeetsTharoor
An unstoppable force hits an immovable object🔥🔥🔥
Apt in context of the interview...

Shashi tharoor is the only one who seemed confident in front of karan thapar😂
One of the reason for that is he stands with the facts and truth
Ryt 🤣
True
Watch Dr. Swamy

Happy to hear about Indian Railways in this interview.
Seems like you're a train guy
Understood what you insinuated
Intellectual riffing, when done right, is an absolute delight. Hey, that rhymed!
Why hasn't Ghandi died yet? How cruel Churchill is?
Great personality dr.tharoor
I want to see him as pm of India...
Knowledge speak, wisdom act. HE IS NOT A Dr.
@@Manojyadav-dz4vs he has a Phd. That makes him Dr. Tharoor.
Wow.... that's a real journalist....great interview
Both r Certainly hugely Learned personalities....
The second half is interesting, this journalist is good. really good.

Sashi Tharoor is uneducated or liar but just wrong
Mr.Tharoor's knowledge is much beyond the reach of the Thapar
Mr Thapar, when you ask a question, please allow Dr Tharoor to clarify.
What an illuminating interview !! Thank you so much

Such beautiful English, I must say!
Both the interviewer and the interviewee are well prepared and up to the mark.
One Oxford dictionary Vs the another Oxford Dictionary. Shashi Tharoor Sir is outstanding. 😃😃
Exemplary interview and exuberant thoughts shared
Myself very fond of reading Agatha Christie, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Dan Brown and some what it's influence me in browsing Shashi Tharoor. Waiting for his autobiography. "Into the mind of an educated Indian politician" might be the best book ever written on Suspense.
That's amazing interview.. I like it..

This man has changed my views about the British.thanks sir.
Shashi tharoor is a great person and advanced english speaker
Both are very learned person.
An illuminating interview between two oxford dictionaries
True. Respect 🙏🇮🇳👍.
I would rather he was the front runner for Congress instead of Rahul Gandhi. He might make a better prime minister.
Two legends 🙏🙏

This man is too good to just a sitting MP. We need more of him in indian politics

I don't know when modi will be able to interview karan thapar again
nice interview good orator
Fruitful conversation between two omniscient minds
Shashi always pin point the real pressure points with fierce referencing, scholarly indeed.
People say that likes of Rajdeep and Ravish are confident and best journalist,but Karan Thapar is above all these childrens,his style of journalism is best in the world.
Excellent.true brain of India....
Yep true brain 🧠
Mr Tharoor you have brilliantly presented.... logic, reasoning and truth.
Seems great write up. I'm not sure when would the book be available in Pakistan.
Muhammed Zaryab Baig
I think book should be available in Pakistan also because international version already released of this book..!!
abodh kant Thanx mate
Muhammed Zaryab Baig Welcome..!!
Known facts presented very well...
ordered the book today.
let's see how it is
So how was it?
One hell of an awesome talk 👌
very good interaction between two intelluctuals
It's really extraordinary that they mention Stalin and Mao's killings compared to Britain's 3.5 crore murders in India but they miss out comparing him to Hitler. Hitler killed 60 lakh jews. Churchill killed 40 lakh Indians in 1943 in the Bengal famine while Hitler was killing 60 lakh jews at the same time. The difference in their treatment is massive.
Astonished to hear about the statistics from the book
I LOVE YOU SWEETHEART SHASHI THAROOR💖
those getting angry at karan thapar... wait.. Shashi nailed it in last sentence with usual charm... "anglophelia"... that's what quintessential classic army brat like Thapar gets to be.
Tharoor is the best, I want to buy this book.
It will do a lot good for a country to have leader life Dr. Shashi Tharoor and it will 100 times better he be the Next Congress President to lead the political out fit today orphended by Raul Gandhi.
Excellent answers by Tharoor

Great mind -Shashi Tharoor. Pedestrian mind & intellect - Karan T
Looking forward to reading the book. I enjoyed the interview.
Absolutely correct. Ivan say this on the basis of my research as a student of history.
Thank you.
gud discussion..!
i would like to point out that the world went bit sober and hesitant to indulge in barbarisam after world war 2 , and had kinda started giving value to human rights etc .
Gandhiji's non violent movement etc were spot on for those times due to the millions of human life lost in World War .1 & 2 .
It's very good discussion i really want to read this book.
He is PM material.
British became prosperous by impoverishing United India.
I wish these two also do an analysis of "300 years Mughal Raaj"...
Yes....perhaps a book on it...but it was were more hand in the glove during mughal rule, many mughals fought n imprisoned their own blood for power, many indians betrayed other indians for jobs in the mughal courts and armies...
I have heard tharoor speaking in favour of mughals, reasons known to him
700
When two incredibly erudite personalities slip in snide attacks at each other and at the same time acknowledge the other's intellect, it definitely makes for an entertaining debate. And a lovely way to pass 32minutes and 23 seconds during Lockdown.
Thanks and Appreciate ur effort. British the looters of the world
''this book would have been written in malyalam''.. hey der would nt hav been a need for this book
hahaha
Mostly because the ill effects of the Raj were less felt in Kerala (more specifically Kochi and Travancore) because they had signed treaty of subsidiary alliance (fancy name for puppet control)
i agree with Mr. shashi tharoor....
This book is before partition so Pakistan is also highly interested party so book must be available here thank you Dr shashi
He should become congress president and pm candidate.
I have read your book. It is fantastic and full of information that I did not know..
I was in Britain for a number of years for my studies but I have noticed even today British historians do not accept India's contribution for the Industrial Revolution or the wealth accumulation or the famines created by the British.

Dipak Basu ::: I don’t know the details as I am non-British, but I believe most British people have no clue about the monstrosity of the British colonial activities in India. So their arguments are based on ignorance.
This is probably the only interview where the interviewer is hogging more time than the interviewee.
The epitom of english language... karan thapar and shashi tharor together
what an end to this nonpareil interview! One of the best.
I would like to see some kind of apology and punishment of England today, starting with the royal family.
Remember the Nuremberg trials, something of that is needed to acknowledge the importance of the English tyranny over India.
The interviewer is so white washed.
👍👍👍👍
From Pakistan

Mr. Nobody Remember? THIS is an interview he will ask other way around q
This is a great interview 😍 thapar did great job🔥
Another factor, which i think is a big one, is the invetion and industrialzing of UKs industry whereas india was still based on labour intensive practicies, and this is well before indian colonialism.
Whatever meagre good things came out of the British Raaj came out not because of the British but despite them.
One of few times, when Dr Tharoor went soft at many points
If anyone is interested u can read an economic history of India by Rajni Palme Dutt. Not a political book at all but it opens ones eyes on the subject.
