Arjun defeat him in virat parv
Such an amazing insight into human psychology! Our ancestors thought through every virtue and vice that can co-exist in a human being whether it was writing characters or living with them. Amazing! Thank you for the podcast...
Thank you!
Great conversation! Very interesting topic.
Thank you!
Enjoyed this! Fun and quite knowledgeable too.
Thank you!
Intersting conversation lipika 👍
The minister who says we can't say anything to china because they are a bigger economy is a disgrace to India. BTW all the so called Ministers are nothing more than Modis domestic help.😅😅
A very enlightening podcast. Shri Utpal ji is very forthright and transparent and I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation. Lipika got the best out of him through her timely and probing questions. Kudos to that. We wish 🎉 all success for his Book and to 'The Indic Pen' by Lipika.👏👏
Oh yes, I especially loved Lipika's argumentative Hindu. Alas! Only if we were less so.
Thanks a ton!
Great talk. Looking forward for more like this. Great!
Thank you! There’s more to come
Great interview. 👍👍
Thank you
Great Interview with Amazing Information
Thank you so much
Wow lipu very nice just keep it up
Thank you!
Very nice help full interaction for the life
Thank you!
True. Writers can sabotage their own book because they don't understand marketing
Jay Siyaram 🙏
Jay Sachchidanand 🙏
Without any intention of disrespecting her, doesn't she looks somewhat like professor Snape😅
My favorite book The Blue Jade ❤
Govidkaka 👉 " I Am Nathig Bat I Ken Dou Anithig "
Wonderful
🙏🏻💐🙏🏻
लिपिका बहुत अच्छे. गाती भी बहुत अच्छा हो .
Wonderful interview, Lipika. Loved few things specifically: 1. We don't have a right to discuss, what we don't follow on our own. 2. One who can't serve his/her family, can never serve the country. 3. Family is always the first priority, where every member should have trust on each other.
लिपिका, बहुत अच्छा विमोचन समारोह। प्रशंसनीय और उत्साहवर्धक। काका ने व्यापार में मानवमूल्यो की महत्ता सर्वोपरि रखते हुए परिवार और समाज के लिए भी कार्यरत रहने का एक ज्वलंत उदाहरण रखा है। विमोचन की सफलता के लिए आप बधाई की पात्र हैं।
विवेचना बहुत उम्दा हैं
My top favorite book THE HIDDEN CHILDREN
Breath of Gold, is truly beautiful and inspiring. PT Hari Prasad Chaurasia is legendary and truly a national treasure.
Wow! Thats so so amazing! Loved the music. Lovely voices. Awesome!
Glad you liked it
Very interesting conversation, session as I'm also a big Indian classical music lover so I enjoyed it a lot...👌👌😊
Thank you
Excellent Lipika
Background music is unnecessary as it interferes with the interview.
Interesting... Keep on doing wonderful work with talented people...👍
Wonderful interview. Loved hearing. Inspiring journey.
Nice interview. 👌👍
Wonderful interview!
Extremely articulative and great insights.
A brilliant interview. Very good points raised. Loved it.
Thank you!
Intriguing!
Adding her book to my reading list....
Greattttttt!! I got the answers to few of my questions 👌👍
Lovely conversation, Richa and Lipika!
An insightful session, very insightful. The most crucial and essential facet of an interview is asking the appropriate questions that draw meaningful answers. And this is what makes an interview worth watching. Kudos to Lipika. Well, I am getting the book now. The way Damayanti sheds light on her masterpiece, it has got into me now. I could literally visualise characters in mind. How strong, intense they will get when I actually read the story! Goosebumps!
Insightful answers, Damyanti. Interesting questions, Lipika. Enjoyed the interview.
Loved this interview. Especially very intriguing questions posed by lipika and a reply by Damayanti (keep your characters on a chair in front of you).
Thanks to both the interviewer and interviewee. A good interview is a combination of asking the right questions and a writers ability to answer them as descriptively as they can. This is one of my best reads of 2019. I recommend it to anyone who loves to read crime fiction.
What a wonderful interview. I read this book and enjoyed it very much. Fantastic to see a writer so animated and passionate about her craft.
a terrific interview, thank you both so much for making it available!
Good going. All the best 👍
Awesome
