Really good, great conversation. It’s really long time when we use to hear such conversation. Keep it up Barkha! Thanks Ashutosh for your honesty in your conversation. Proud of you.

Your ideals and honesty is commendable Ashutosh. For years, intellectuals have been criticised as armchair intellectuals - it's easy to criticize sitting in your drawing room but, you can't do anything on the ground to change anything. AAP formation was an attempt to change that. Most of the Idealists, like you and me in the party have deserted it, lending credence to the label - armchair or drawing room intellectuals. Arvind Kejriwal, Saurabh, Manish, Atishi and many others are still slugging it out. Huge respect to them.

My mother asked me Why barkha ji don't come to TV? I got her to watch this conversation. Thanks Ma'am, such a wonderful interview.

Whether Kejriwal has changed politics or politics changed him, it's not a case of "either or". Yes, politics has changed Kejriwal, but Kejriwal has also changed politics. That's why Modi had to build that school set during Gujarat elections.

Kejriwal is the new-age Mahatma Gandhi.. he did change the politics and governance in the country substantially. Even though AAP did not form govt in Karnataka, AAP's ideology is ruling Karnataka right now. Defeating an opponent is one thing but changing the ideology of your opponent is the magic of legends.

Great interview! For the first time… I seemed to like Ashuthosh. Thankyou Madam Barkha.

It could also be argued that Arvind Kejriwal is still in the path of what he set out to do, molding himself into what is needed to survive but still be able to make some impact, although the not the ideal one(nothing is ideal in this world) and on the other hand others have left the journey because it's too hard for them or it's not the idealistic experience they envisioned from outside.

Barkha जी, keep uploading your interviews with top personalities in India. मजा आ गया. दिल खुश हुआ आपको देख कर, सुन कर

Very lively , frank and honest discussion , Barkha ! Hats off to you both...

Arvind kejriwal came to political discourse to change such discourse. His political discourse has been adopted by even Congress Party which is the oldest political party in India and won election in Karnataka and is continuing with same in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh. His political promise to directly give poor people what elected political leaders are getting. In very short period, he has become national level political leaders. Future is with him and his party AAP.

I m 21 years old and whenever they speak about new generation , I listen it very carefully and always feels good that I m watching this kind of content and not having that rigid mindset because I think this is age in which my core political mindset and understanding of things will develop and after listening to these kind of views it feels like I m on the right boat.

Ashutosh ji brilliant interview.

Very nice interview. I learn many things from this interaction.

........... GOOD CONVERSATION BETWEEN U BOTH ...... CONGRATS BARKHA ....

Heart to heart conversation between two frustrated oldies.

Very clear and wonderful interview.

Barkha is going great guns and going from strength to strength with each episode, esp since her monumental interview with the famous Pak journalist Wajahat Khan . She truly does a great balancing act and plays neutral in a most mature msnner, despite whatever personal biases she may have, One wishes her that her alliance with Shekhar Gupta would have stayed, it would hv been a treat to watch both. And so impressed with Ashutosh whom one thought was a mere poison spewing machine against Modi, frustrated by AAP politics. He brings out a fairly balanced perspective of the AK phenomenon and calls a spade where due. The interview does well to portray him as a man of deep thought and firm convictions indeed.

Very informative and in depth interview.

Always worth listening to your very in-depth interviews. Your subject Ashutosh was a very interesting subject.

mera ek sawaal hai : jab kharab awaaz hi sunani hai to mic lagaya hi kyun hai?

Great conversation 🎉❤

Today's political situation in our country is so sad and threatening and it's social impact so disturbing. Rightly said in this interview , there are nw camps every whr. Earlier as friends, family members we had ideological/political difference but we never let them overshadow our behavior with each other. Now societal behavior is being specifically defined by the party in power.

Really great interview, great questions and equally great answers! One concern raised by Barkha is that the political environment has become so polarized that it has forced journalism to become that dirty. Ashotosh answered that the solution to that is technology or digital media like youtube. That really empowers people. So only good thing will come out of it when this polarized environment will end. That will happen when people will be fed up. Because the root cause of polarized environment is anger. The big brother of anger is terror which many people used and got devastated. ISIS and Taliban are the extreme forms of it, Pakistan is in a downward spin because of this. Just like sex sells, so is terror. In India it's still in anger form, which still sells, many elections in the last 8-9 years are won due to that. But the obvious outcome of anger is that it becomes unmanageable after sometime, it divides the same people who promoted it together. The whole environment becomes so spiteful, full of infighting that people simply get fed up and just want to throw these people out. It will take a little time, but it will happen eventually.

Awesome podcast. Very well moderated barkha and very honestlubreplied by Ashutosh

There is no doubt Arvind was intelligent. otherwise, its not easy to make fool out of freedom fighter, lawyer, judge to journalist and public at same time 😀. Not everyone get the silverspoon, with out that Intelligence and cunning are the must needed feature for a politician

Great content and interview! Just a thought- are the mics working for both the personalities, as it sounds a bit different.

Mature & honest interview

Barkha farukh Abdullah aur kashmir valley ki situation par research kar chuki hai 😂😂😂😂

We know how Barkha was reporting at the time genocide and ethnic cleansing of Pandits was happening in Kashmir. She tried very hard to justify their cleansing after enjoying hospitality of both separatists and Farooq . However I now respect her after she launched Mojo as balanced views of both right wing and left wing are shown .

Great insight into a journalist experiences and the fact you guys live with the challenges day in and out no matter how ugly at times it can be!❤

Aashutoshji your eyes seem brighter and your shoulders seem lighter jab met Politics is not meant for you nor I a good journey all the same.❤

If someone brought real polity I n Indian politics is Arvind Kejriwal..

Court has dismissed the petition filed by the CHIEF SECRETARY against AAP. Asutosh should note this point. He wanted to be Rajya Sabha but that didn't happen. Good for AAP he resigned.

बरखा, मैं बीजेपी से नहीं हूं लेकिन बतातीं हूं आशुतोष आज भी आप में है ही एक योजना की तहत। कांग्रेस सरकार बनवाकर आप उसे हरा कर ऊपर जाना चाहते हैं

Both of you..specially Barkha is considered one of the best journalist in recent past but since the time you have chosen left wing and became a part of so called elite club which has a typical mindset of their own..it started turning negative for you. Ashutosh on other hand is genuine but still searching his ground..confused a bit. Thanks for this interview anyways.

मीडिया को गालियां इस लिए पड़ती है क्योंकि आज जनता के पास retaliate करने का साधन है मोबाइल। पहले जनता के पास रिटेलिएट करने का कोई रास्ता नहीं था। इस बात को जर्नलिस्ट यह समझते थे की वो बहुत सम्मानित है। वास्तव में यदि पिछले समय में भी कोई सिस्टम retaliate करने का होता तो इनको पुराने समय में भी ऐसा ही होता।

When Barkha Dutt was hosting a show in President's house, all fine. When Rajat Sharma gets the Cabinet to attend it's Godi media. Hypocrisy

Where are Nidhi Rajdhani, Sreenivasan Jain et now?

Fantastic discussion.

Ashutosh extremely straight forward

Telling right or wrong is not opinionated journalism.If somebody who is spreading hatred and a journalist can't tell to viewers, this is not journalism at all

What does Ashutosh say about RSS? RSS is not a political party. It is a cultural organisation. Members coming from RSS join various political party. There are many RSS or ex RSS members in Congress party.

The day when he overacted and cried on TV, he got to know he is not good in politics 😂

Such a gem 💎

At one point you say" after 2014 "the party and its troll" went after some journalists and you also admit that without proof baseless allegations were made and the image of some were completely tarnished. So basically you all are rascals fighting with each other for your own objectives (whatever it is). Then why take moral high ground; just because someone was more aggressive and powerful and defeated you in the game.

In side and out with Barkha Dutt definitely a nice one.

Two honest person they call themselves they are very netural but but but ........we can see they are finding problem in right wing party BJP only because these two are honest😂😂😂😂

Arvind Kejriwal has a very strong will power, stubbornness just like Mahatma Gandhi had. Small stature men but very strong will power. Show me one politician today who can stage dharna in Cold Delhi winters out on the road at night like Arvind Kejriwal did. Surely one change Arvind Kejriwal has done to change the political discourse of this country. Earlier no political party or politicians would talk about schools, good healthcare facilities etc.

Very candid interview❤

The day when he cried on tv and people made joke of him he realised he ia not good for politics. He himself said that rape case was false , barkha said barkha money offer to arvind was fake photo and then ashutosh sau that they mught have beaten chief secretary.

I think Kejriwal is honest, articulate ,smart politician. The weakness of every political party is how to fund the running the party & election expenses & their own family expenses when out of power. Politicians acting as commission agents & contract agents are the rule of the day, is difficult for middle class parties like AAP, but is lucky it got Delhi with revenue sources, difficult will be Punjab. With out organization these NON_BJP parties have extreme difficulty to fund their activities, CASTE is the main back bone. Anti BJP- Christian & Muslim votes are these caste parties & congress are after along with candidates caste. If a journalist sticks to questioning who is in authority is to commended. Even at highest levels the media has agenda & supporters - this is how democracy works with in certain limits = it is like TUG OF WAR. For more than 9 decades how media abused RSS & its associates is to be taken into consideration for shutting of certain media by MODI establishment. One should not for get how Radio & TV were under one family dictates.
