- India Today Conclave is India's biggest platform where business leaders, politicians, thinkers and icons from every field comes together to explore and exchange ideas in its 15th edition at New Delhi, with an eclectic line up of world celebrities.
This man may not have been treated right by the political class of India, but is a man who lives in the heart of the people of India.
I have become a fan of this man. Very thought provocative, humorous and does not mince his words. Never shy away from calling a spade a spade.
Before osho he is a speck
I am a huge fan of Aurangzeb Alamgir who whooped your brown asses really good
What a brilliant intellectual he is !! We Indians are fortunate Salman Rushdie is a born citizen of Bharat..
Born citizen of Bharat, lul, you nationalists are fookin hilarious. Firstly, he's a Brit/American citizen. Any smart person would and should take their citizenship if given a chance and say goodbye to this shithole region for good. Also, it just happened to be the Satanic Verses. The reaction would have been quite similar from Hindu right, had he written something "offensive" about Hinduism. Okay maybe not to the same extent this Mullas take it to, but I guess you get my point.
Raj T buhahahahah
HE IS A FUCKING CITIZEN 🙈🙉🙊👱
What?????
@@siddharthmehta6220 since how long you became self hating person
the conviction & the clarity of thought makes him what he is today,remarkable!
Salman Rushdie Beautiful mindset human being
Salman is one of the rarest , who believe and act accordingly as well , that criticism begins from oneself and it must be started from the act of finding faults in us first and then the neighbours expanding to rest of the world. He follows Kabir the great in this matter. This is how you can make your world better in many ways. God bless us all !...
One of the wisest human beings on earth right now..!!!
PANDEY ... If, this 'Knight' that slipped in the Bath at Night and hit his bald head on the Commode [Sir Salman Rushdie] is, the wisest man alive right now ... I'd certainly like to know about other celebrities, mentioned in your "Shushala Celebrities" honors list !
So many triggered narcissists😏
@Vijai Singh Arundhati Roy!!!.. And yes we are definitely going somewhere with this
@Vijai Singh are you okay???.. Get some help!!
@@shahidbukhari1 Don't get triggered. He simply quoted how the Qur'an prescribes death to non believers, polytheists, jews, homosexuals, blasphemers, apostates, heretics and atheists.
Always valid: I may hate what you say but I will defend to the death your right to SAY it.
good old Voltaire
Thank you so much for uploading this
India should be ashamed we lost Salman Rushdie.
He's a great writer and thinker.
Rajiv Gandhi's biggest mistake was bowing to the insane wing of the Imams.He did both Shah Bano and was the first to ban Salman Rushdie.
And then opened the gates of ruins of temple in Ayoddhya..... Both these BJP congress are faces of the same coin. Utilizing emotional fools like us to divide on communal lines.
Hey appreciate i ur open mindedness glad to know there are muslim like you👍
@Yogi adityanath Allah loves us, Pakistan zindabad.

seems humble n honest
The first delegate asks the similar question everytime and he is present in all events of mr Rushdie
fake guests are elements of propaganda. in every message, there is a less apparent message.
A legend and a real prophet of free speech. India lost a gem.
He's still alive.
Here is an author who believes immensely in the power of words. He feels he can do anything by dint of words......
thanx for uploading
This guy speaks Gold....
One of the greatest qoute that I heard was from my teacher, it was like this "you are not a left wing person until and unless you are getting abuse/criticism from both kinds of people (the right and the so called wing people)"
LMAO. Cause the left is logically challenged
A very skilled story weaver
To me Salman Rushdie, Aubrey Menen, Paul Courtright or Jaime Laine, Charlie Hebdo, Suzanna Arundhati Roy and D N Jha are some examples who exemplify courage. It requires a whole lot of bravery to put one's life and that of their family's second to what needs to be said. If people enjoy them, great but if they don't, then it should also be fine too. Literature is ethereal and should be rightly treated so.
Salman Rushdie is a class act although too preaachy . You addes the others because you wanted tohave a balance , but you missed out because Arundhati Roy lacks any logic, Lane and Cartright and lane want some fame with nothing to offer.
Arun Jetli If it helps you sleep at night, so be it. Or is it because they actually spoke about something that pricks the conscience of those against freedom of speech? Or perhaps,they brought to light something people want to remain hidden? Anyway, it was an expected answer since there is none to actually prove it otherwise.
I agree with you completely
All this butt hurt people who are attacking him for saying something that they don't like are idiot's.
Ashok Rajpal Two lines of your comment was enough to convince you’re just another worthless Hindu extremist who’s talks tough on TH-cam.
Let me refute your false claims.
1) Archeologists never found ‘temple’ underneath it. Firstly, pro-RSS has clearly rejected the idea of using latest technology to map out the part f the earth. “Your science can’t prove faith”. They said.
2) They committee was headed by a Hindu Sympathiser
3) There isn’t a single mention of ‘temple’ in their report. They found some remains but it wasn’t a conclusive evidence in favour of existence of a temple underneath the structure.
Get your facts right. Read the actual report before you educate others on TH-cam
Brilliant interview...
Criticism must be necessary to come out modern era.
Salman is the most brilliant author. People who oppose him have obviously not read his books.
Sir you are great
Articulate, unvarnished statements from one of the greatest writers.
My favourite author.
There is some problem of hearing due to sound system not working in this debate.
Indian senior politicians and prime ministers are up to date afraid to give him a proper award and recognition. It is not people's fault.
I wonder why most of the women are napping despite having such an iconic orator.
Because level of English is high
Because they are imagining my hard lund between their legs 🤣🤣
I was just thinking whether all these people are from different Planet
I saw Nassim Nicholas Taleb in the audience.
Possibly people bought the book but did not read it. I might well buy it and read it! There must be a right to offend!
Confessions of a sapioromantic... mind over matter... love him😝🤐😁😁
Don't get triggered. He simply quoted how the Qur'an prescribes death to non believers, polytheists, jews, homosexuals, blasphemers, apostates, heretics and atheists
Lol , i can understand why they want to have a Q&A with Salman Rashidi in India , but why don't they invite Wendy Doniger also and show how much they tolerate literature and freedom of expression ?
@Raj Narayanan IM just saying there would be fewer smiling faces in the audience if Wendy Was the invitee.
They would. Don't get triggered. He simply quoted how the Qur'an prescribes death to non believers, polytheists, jews, homosexuals, blasphemers, apostates, heretics and atheists
Don't assume that you're looking at devout Hindus here LMAO. These are champagne socialists.
He will roast in hell
It's terrible the level of crime and violence these days
We should get him back ....
27:35 iss that swami satya vedant of osho dham delhi ???
bravo thumbnail, good job IT
😝That expression … was looking for a comment!
Hearing him today Aug 12th 2022, the day he was attacked.
Can you imagine how many millions of people will learn about the satanic verses now because of that cowards failed attempt on the authors life?

14:30 is that swami satya vedant in white ??
The anchor asks" will pakistan be a full-fledged democracy" and what, the question is complete 😂. As if it's a gk question.
There is a big question about the people in the India Today Conclave 2010 is who are they, why are they there, looking like out of place, I rather would be somewhere else kind of expression on there looks 😮
It is more like Indian CEOs in a Tupperware or amway 😅😂😅 gathering

What was the religion of salaman when he travel out of India, what his religion now ? p
Where is his hair?
Salman Rushdie is an excellent story teller in the genre of fiction that should be read if at all for fun. His childish writings packed in snazzy English lack intellectual depth as his hackneyed plots revolve around the bizarre, provocative and trite. One can't enrich one's character or increase ones deep understanding of life, being and nature reading his books.
As for the book Satanic Verses, it appears that a powerful hidden hand with vested interest was the push or reason Rushdie wrote it out of compulsion or greed knowing fully well it'd incite Islamic orthodoxy that's 90% of the ummah. Introducing a polytheistic theme of the 3 goddesses aside from Allah and of a prophet tricked by a jinn into making polytheism mainstream and then realising his error is fraught with danger because Islamic commentators would see it as an affront to their deity's infallibility and by logical conclusion faulty guidance to his prophet. Stay away from danger. One can mock other religions and get away but when it comes to Islam it's an altogether different game - loaded with danger of setting of riots and being lynched.

Satirical Magical Realist piece regarding Salman Rushdie incident....
This is what my fellow Muslims should do when someone insults our great Nabi (SAW)?
I believe that when someone insults our Nabi (SAW) it is nothing but a test from Allah'tala.
Allah is testing us to ensure we maintain our composure, our restraint, our patience, our tolerance against those who degrade the image of our beloved Prophet (SAW).
Whenever we detect an insult, we should approach those who have no respect for our Nabi (SAW) and embrace them closely and warmly with compassion and humility.
We must do this to show how amazing Islam is - in that we persevere in the face of hate and criticism. We must love and respect those who hate our Prophet. These are the teachings. This is the Way.
When these evil people see what Muslims are, and what Islam teaches they will immediately abandon their own belief and accept Islam.
Our beautiful deen will grow faster than ever before. Alhmadulliah.
Allah will be pleased as we've passed the test and we will all enter Jannah inshAllah.
What is happening now is a failed test. After every insult our Muslim brothers and sisters go on a witch hunt against those who insult, with assaults, killings, bombings, stabbings, death threats, violence, anarchy and general mayhem. Even those who silently support these radical Muslims are failing the test. Those who were thinking of embracing Islam will now turn their backs on the greatest religion of Peace because of these extremists. This makes Allah'tala very angry and you will bring his curse and wrath upon you.
Once you fail the test there is no coming back. Jahanam (hell) is your final resting place where you shall abide therein forever.....
This was India when Modi was not PM. Note how the audience are enjoying a conversation on free speech and expression from a champion of one. I doubt we can have such a conclave today in these times. People would call Rushdie anti-national.
LMAO. No one would. In fact Bhakts would love him. Don't get triggered. He simply quoted how the Qur'an prescribes death to non believers, polytheists, jews, homosexuals, blasphemers, apostates, heretics and atheists. Quote 2:221, 48:15, 33:57, 98:6.
Quote, if you can the guts. Let's see. A typical Modi hater who is a moderate Islamophobe because he can never make public the verses of the holy book in its entirety.
Discussions like this can still happen if your Umma stops sar tan se juda thing
I'm in 2022 when he attacked by Islam community
Surprised Salman Rushdie often punctuates his clipped British English with disdainful crutch words like "you know". Crutch words, on par with heresy or blasphemy, are frowned upon by classy and erudite speakers of the English language.
You know he lived in US for 2 decades so you know it is kinda hard not to pick up the habit of saying u know
@@gee8883 Crutch words are looked down upon by classy speakers of the English language whether in America or elsewhere. Salman Rushdie is not an intellectual nor well educated. He just has an ordinary BA in History from King's College, Cambridge.
I've lived in America and have observed the lower classes or ill-informed people using cheap crutch words like 'you know'.
Religion is a sensitive topic to some people. Especially Muslims. Jokes are allowed, but not to degrade. Salman is not a scholar to decide what level he should go to .
Osman .. religion like all ideas or comments etc .. should be open to criticism n questioning..if a religion is true n strong ..it should be good enough to withstand criticism.
Ok,This guy has no business insulting Agatha Christie
He is a snooty elitist
Books are written for enjoyment as well as intellectual stimulation
He has a right to insult anyone and you have the right to insult him.
Hindus is prosperous because of this type of healthy debate 🙏🙏🙏🕉️🕉️💪
Intelligent failed in love
My question to mr rushdie is why did he use the word " satanic" which stems essentially from a religous mindset while he being putatively a liberal secular rationalist should have titled it in non religous context. Or was it that he actually envisaged all this furore and did it on purpose to hurt muslims.
Zahid "sahab". I think Rushdie forgot the inverted commas . I mean please bro get the satire.
Some verses given to the prophet were later deemed to be false and were thus referred to as the “satanic verses.”
It’s called google. Use it.
Did you even read the book?
Yes. Hence my question. Did you?
The comment was directed towards OP
Allah ki lanat hon salman rushdi par
Why Christian like this man he is playing for food he says about Mohammad out prophet but what is his religion why he use Muslim name rushdie word what meaning he is not with any one he is greedy person

If Mr.Rushdie were to write a book on Hinduism, what would be its title? Pride of Shame? What does he think about Hinduism?
Manoj de Cochin , Salman Rushdie would have suffered the same treatment like authors such as Aubrey Menen, Paul Courtright, Jaime Laine, Charlie Hebdo, Suzanna Arundhati Roy and D N Jha.. (just to name a few). It is difficult to expect someone who lives within confines to understand where these artists come from. In that, Hindus are not different from Muslims. It is impossible for them to accept anything beyond their narrow tunnel vision. Look how conservatives reacted to a fictional work of Dan Brown. *rolls eyes*.
If he is an atheist who wants to encourage rational thinking, he should criticize all religions. Why only Islam? He should go to Vatican and ask the Pope who Jesus Christ's biological father was. It is hard to believe God came to the earth and had sex with the Virgin Mary. I think, 2000 years ago, there was no way for a woman to get pregnant without having sex with a man. As for Hinduism, in India, Hinduism is the worst religion. How many gods and castes does it have? All other religions in the world preach unity and equality, but Hinduism preaches separatism and inequality. India is steeped in superstitions. Hinduism has made India a lunatic asylum. Why doesn't Mr.Rushdie talk about it?
Manoj de Cochin see Hinduism dose not have caste system, Hindu society does. And there are no 330 million gods, that's the European fanaticism. There are only 33 gods. Rest are regional interpretations of original gods. And before shitting on Hinduism, first see the violence committed in general and then see for Hindu contribution in it.
And if you call yourself an atheist or agnostic, first read about the facts and then blabber.
An educated believer is better than a foolish atheist.
Peace brother
Are you an educated believer? How would you interpret Advaita Vedanta?
Manoj de Cochin it's just another way of connecting to the bramhan. I know it rejects dual nature, that Purush is enough and prakriti is not needed. May the person who wrote it is right in it's own manner. But look he never said, or it's not written anywhere that it's the final word of God and it is not open to amendments.
It's a philosophy, take it or leave it.
But following those practices won't make one a fanatic, brother.
Regardless of the original desire not to worship any image, Muslims do practice idol worship! For example, the circumambulation of Kaabaa, the touching and kissing of the "black stone" in Kaaba, the burning of incense before the photo of Kaaba in the shops owned by Muslims - all these and similar other practices show that they are "Idolaters"!
Lol kaaba is a building. Its a symbol of unification. And provides us the direction in which we all pray. For your info prayers are even offered inside of kaaba. We don't worship stones. We believe in the one God ,Allaah.
@@sadiaq1693 why you muslims kiss black stone?
@@sadiaq1693 first of all have some shame comparing. First thing your shitty religion is not comparable with humanity. We believe that stones, trees and panchbootas are god. We see god in human n non human. We don’t believe in isis group n destroying the world.
@@sadiaq1693 he has a valid point in that when god is formless doing the pagan ritual is silly enough.

215 millions children's, and some of them are memorized QURAN, what book you ever memorized. I am very lucky I was Born in Mumbai, and Muslim family. You have ever read Quran?
Laanat hai is shakhs pe
Salman Rushdie not for everyone. His language is very sophisticated and becomes boring very easily.
Do you know English?
He is playing for food he is not faithful any religon
Y should he be faithful to religion? He is a free bird. He has a choice to choose a religion and to free speech
He laugh like shaitan.really looking like a shaitan
he looks like mohammed
Only if he spoke like Shaitan than mohammed would listen to him the way he done in the actual satanic verse incident in Islam
Are you free to stand and swear at the audience' fathers and mothers. I would love to see you try it, all this pleasentries would go down the drain very quickly. Absolute freedom is against common sense and the people propgating dont know who they are. I see alot of contredictions in the man.
In GOD we trust. Allah O Akbar said more than 10 Billions times around the world,some them are blind by birth. Have been to mumbai recently, on mohamed ali road?.Read. QURAN.
