With some of his points, I agrees like intellectuals/ liberals it seem don't convey their ideas to common people for example The Hindu, such a good newspaper, is read by so few atleast in North India, and common person reads dainik jagran/bhaskar etc etc and these papers write shit so he was right in pointing out that there is gap between liberals and common people atleast in terms of language. Agar hmm bhi bhakton ki tarhe cheezon ko black and white mai smjh ne lage to ham me aur unme kya fark rhe jaega. We appreciate what is appreciable and kicks that is deemed to be kicked. So yeah his interview was mix of both.
Your kind of thinking to take clear sides is the issue. Modi not won because of hard right Kangana type followers but as he spoke right wing supporters who understands where modi failing and where he is doing good.
Amazing how Chetan Bhagat was discredited, mocked, laughed at by almost everybody a few years back but suddenly he is the free flowing fountain of truth and wisdom.
The last 5 minutes of the interview is like a police office is questioning a criminal with solid evidence and the criminal struggling to stick with his answers when one after another evidences are thrown at him. Karan at at his best.
@@shashankmijar2694 no he wasn't.. it's Just become fashionable to hate the liberals and he's playing along because that gives him a chance to occupy the space of intellectuals which was traditionally left liberal
He wasn't given any chance to speak. Most of these issues are nuanced and you need to have empathy for all sides to understand issues. Most liberals lack the intellectual capacity to understand nuances and empathy to tolerate different viewpoints.
I consider myself a liberal. But most of the rather uneducated liberals don't yet have developed the intellectual capacity to understand nuances. For example, take love jihad. While the whole conspiracy theory is stupid and easy to debunk but some of underlying issues are genuine. Its blown out of proportion of course, but there are some genuine concerns. For example, the whole Muslims can't marry non-Muslims thing, is very much part of Muslim scriptures. More importantly, its part of Muslim culture, they are not ready to accept a Hindu women into their family unless she converts. Most inter faith couples don't care so deeply about religion. Even when they do, they are respectful of each other's religious choices. Conversion happens solely to gain acceptance in the family. That's the issue liberals should focus on. Why should a woman convert to gain acceptance while a man is not required to. Also, Muslim personal laws are still quite regressive and contradict values of Indian constitution but liberals never take up those issues. You can't call yourself a liberal while ignoring gender biases in minority communities. Hindu personal laws were ammended in 1954 and lives of Hindu women have somewhat improved over the past 65 years while Muslim personal laws were never touched.
The hard right have not dropped from the sky. They have been cultivated, nuturtered and pampered by thd Modi govt. Hard right and Modi sarkar are the same.
As a journalist, Karan Thapar is my inspiration😊. The way he does his research, organises his thoughts and speaks fearlessly yet with respect w/o using any slang, is just amazing. Once, I begin working, I will definitely contribute him financially.
How stupid of Chetan bhagat to say govt wants leave back a legacy. May be yes legacy of farmers suicides legacy of violence against Dalits women and other marginalized.Big joke.
@@shekaram3004 yes but he pretends he is a liberal. He said govt wants economic growth legacy but it's the hard right that is stopping them. So does he mean govt and hard right aren't same?.

@@deepshikhasingh4965 You are absolutely right. The left ignores or uses extremism of minority religions to their own advantage which is what waters the growth of rightwing in India. They either go mute or develops amnesia when the people of minority religion indulges in riots or commits crimes or does some really outrageous stuff.
When your compatriots who fought along side with you against British for freedom, suddenly demanded a separate country for themselves instead of living together like all did for the past 1000 years.

I am a very ordinary person, not more than 100 people read what I say and I am afraid of speaking against Modi openly because one of my friend was beaten up for doing so and we couldn't do anything about it even though we have Congress rule in our state and district. You think it is easy for Chetan Bhagat or any big personality? He's speaking against people who have surrendered their minds to Modi, he will get nothing by offending them but he has a lot to lose.
जय श्री राम I agree with chetan to a great extent but not completely in an agreement with him because We all have to accept a very significant truth that Bharat belongs to Hindu people.

Been in North America for forty years, I learned what is important for the country, while listening,, still people in India, thinking on the right direction, like Mr. Bhagat, India should not compare herself with Pakistan, which is a failed nation and country, no vision and directions,. Just to stay in power Modi and his colleagues had done enough damage to India- Mr. Baghat rightly said focus on economy and not on Muslims.
He is not a writer. He his a plagiarist. He copies great ideas from real writers who are struggling to even make money to eat one time meal. I hate him. My view only. DYOR
Why do you have Dalit Christians them. Those people who converted from Brahmin Varna to Christianity don't even let Sudra Converts in their home. Its actually Hindus who are getting better and removing casteist tendencies. it will end in Indian Muslims and even Sikhs getting educationally backward. Read something for your jesus' sake. Kerala is not progressing economically. Other states may beat Kerala in next 30 years in women literacy, social indicators. Kerala is already far behind in Higher education
The whole point of 'rich vs bigotry' is no solution. One needs to cure his or her bigotry,wealth is not going to erase your bigotry,it is still going to be there. Be HUMANE rich or poor.
Chetan was astonished to see that liberals like "The Wire" are carefully reading his articles and confirming whether it is actually him who has written it!
He might have written that article having a thought that the bhakts will never read it even if they read they will not understand. Hard 👉 right . yet karan simplified it so well this term that chetans attempt to balance both the set of readers failed.
Liberals are not fools like in USA we don't use hate propaganda against my country men in name of religion We are concerned about more economic minimum Govt equal laws irrespective of religion caste gender etc He doesn't all of the people Problem is that people don't want to change or afraid
@@mayankgautam5214 There is no left left in India man. Most of the left parties are centrists. And the right wing social conservatives are probably economic socialists. The right left in India is basically pro BJP or anti BJP. The funny part is BJP itself dances all over the left right spectrum depending on the state. Mostly because their voters are also all over the spectrum. If you haven't realized yet, they don't have an ideology besides winning elections and staying in power. They tell you what you want to hear. As Bhagat is saying that he and the so called hard right people have nothing in common and infact they conflict each other but they both feel BJP represents them. How is that possible unless BJP is contradictiing itself?
What an Eye opening Interview! Thanks Karan for this interview. This guy, Chetan Bhagat holds personal grudges against the people who criticised his writing and those people happen to be Left wing thoughts or ideology the so called liberals. I never would have thought how he thinks actually without this interview. Thanks once again #karanThapar

@@sourabhverma597 have ever watched republic, India Today interviews and debates? If you do so, in that case karan is very professional in this interview!
@@sourabhverma597 actually i like chaitan coz he is expressing hard right views in respectful manner . as most of the time it is too difficult to talk to them as they abuse so much .like maa behan ki gaaliayan
Chetan is consistently contradicting his own quotes and leaving buffer zone in each questions simply need straight forward answer. afraid of sticking with his own view.
Mr. Chetan Bhagat: "Africa is the cradle of humanity!" "Be rich like US and Europe"! Do you know US was built on slave labour? Europe was built on the plunderings of the east! Which of these do you want India to do? Take slave labour or plunder from someone else?!
In the whole interview he keep on saying that he want India to be rich and in the end when Karan asked him if India done well in case of economy, he agreed that it didn't but still he is not ready to blame it on him.
So true, Naveen ji. None of these people are able to keep to the point, they are unable to substantiate/support their claims and/or ideas and almost all of them display embarrassing ignorance, regardless of whether they have degrees behind their names or not.
Then why liberals are unable to leverage their weaknesses... He spillled the beans about Hard right..but Still liberals are not ready to accept and let go off their prejudices...
@@shashankmijar2694 Shashanka ji, perhaps the prejudices are on the side of the right hard or soft? EVERY right without exception? Maybe "when we set aside ego, self interest, jealousy, insecurity etc. and are our true spiritual selves, away from the turbulence of self, we may log on to the meaning of things and see the world as it ought to be seen?" Of course, we don't expect the uneducated, the unexposed and those struggling merely to keep body and soul together, but Mr Bhagat? And other such privileged people? In an ideal world, the governors of the nation would be responsible for bringing about this vision, they have the power. For that, justice is a prerequisite which, unfortunately, we don't see.
@@nasreenrehman2001 as bagat said liberals are talking as if inhumane activities happening after 2014.. they dont utter a single word about what happened before 2014... They always target Modi since 2002.. this doesn't take them anywhere... When bagat said about muslim family forcing their doughter in law to convert forcefully Tapar interrupted him.. this is where liberals dont want to listen anything.. the reality is the former... Until or unless one dosnt accept the truth one cant bring the change.. and u cant beat BJP.. cuz they speak the truth , it may sound harsh for liberals but thats the ground reality that they r not ready to accept.
@@shashankmijar2694 it's not some deep insight, we all know what the hard right wing points are and Bhagat himself disagrees with those. He even blurted out that we are 'appeasing' them. The problem is that somewhat sane people feel more comfortable associating themselves with right wing rather than liberals. There is no doubt in my mind the hard right equally despises someone like Bhagat or sensible Hindus as much as the liberals do, maybe more. At some point the sensible people have to ditch both extremes and go for the centrist party. Unfortunately that party is congress and there in lies the rub.... Lefties think congress is BJP lite and righties think congress is Stalin. But congress is neither, it's a boring old centrist party that kept extreme elements in check.

Chetan Bhagat is scared to criticize Modi government openly.
Why does he have to criticize everything
th-cam.com/video/Ok9WTEcrcjA/w-d-xo.html
Doesn't media and other people does that then why he will be scared
I am a very ordinary person, not more than 100 people read what I say and I am afraid of speaking against Modi openly because one of my friend was beaten up for doing so and we couldn't do anything about it even though we have Congress rule in our state and district.
You think it is easy for Chetan Bhagat or any big personality? He's speaking against people who have surrendered their minds to Modi, he will get nothing by offending them but he has a lot to lose.
Hats Off, Mr. Thapar. You always nail it perfectly. You expose these 'Pseudo Intellectuals', perfectly.
जय श्री राम
I agree with chetan to a great extent but not completely in an agreement with him because We all have to accept a very significant truth that Bharat belongs to Hindu people.
Chetan is trying to run away from answering a particular question by bringing up another topic repeatedly.😄
Typical andhbhakt minus abuse & death threat in this interview

Ans: All of them.

Karan squeezes a person. You can run but you can't hide. Good interview.
Go and check how Jayalalithaa gave a tight slap to Karan thappar. She made him look like a fool
@@sancool84 if loosing your cool is tight slap, then such people are not fit to lead. She is acting like Donald Trump. Now, If you want to see how to handle tough questions check Prashant Kishor interview with Karan Thapar. And there is no tight slap, just a level head.
@@kiteora his questions are personal attacks not on how she performed as a CM. It's Jayalalitha'a right to believe in Astrology and Numerology, who is Karan thappar to question it? He should be asking questions on her performance as a CM not on personal stupid stuff. Prashant Kishore is very intelligent but cunning person, so don't respect him
@@sancool84 Oh really, personal in the Government functions and appointments? Do your home renovation according to Astrology not govt ceremonies. You are a public representative and he has every right to question her. She has right to not answer that, but in respectful way. PK is great strategist, if you can't handle your emotions, Public services is a bad choice for you.

The number of Drunk Uncles is ever rising in the BJP with every year of their rule. And what about our Drunk Aunties.😊

How many drunk uncle Modi government has? Lol 😂🤣😂🤣
Finally Karan’s interviews in good camera quality. Missed live interviews.
Been in North America for forty years, I learned what is important for the country, while listening,, still people in India, thinking on the right direction, like Mr. Bhagat, India should not compare herself with Pakistan, which is a failed nation and country, no vision and directions,. Just to stay in power Modi and his colleagues had done enough damage to India- Mr. Baghat rightly said focus on economy and not on Muslims.
He is a nationalist who is afraid to criticise the government, he seems to empathise with them. Amazing interview Mr Thapar.
How incredibly incoherent and stupid this 'best seller' writer sounds. He stands exposed for what he is today. Thank you Karan.
He is not a writer. He his a plagiarist. He copies great ideas from real writers who are struggling to even make money to eat one time meal. I hate him. My view only. DYOR

Why do you have Dalit Christians them. Those people who converted from Brahmin Varna to Christianity don't even let Sudra Converts in their home. Its actually Hindus who are getting better and removing casteist tendencies. it will end in Indian Muslims and even Sikhs getting educationally backward. Read something for your jesus' sake.

That's what I call real journalism ❣️✨
No disrespect to Mr.Bhagat but getting to be in an interview of Mr. thappad Ji is an honour (IMO). 😮
Chetan was astonished to see that liberals like "The Wire" are carefully reading his articles and confirming whether it is actually him who has written it!
Hahaha😂
He might have written that article having a thought that the bhakts will never read it even if they read they will not understand. Hard 👉 right . yet karan simplified it so well this term that chetans attempt to balance both the set of readers failed.
Liberals are not fools like in USA we don't use hate propaganda against my country men in name of religion
We are concerned about more economic minimum Govt equal laws irrespective of religion caste gender etc
He doesn't all of the people
Problem is that people don't want to change or afraid
Pretty decent interview, hats off to both of them for listening to each other 'most' of the time

Nd u still in hard left
@@mayankgautam5214 There is no left left in India man. Most of the left parties are centrists. And the right wing social conservatives are probably economic socialists. The right left in India is basically pro BJP or anti BJP. The funny part is BJP itself dances all over the left right spectrum depending on the state. Mostly because their voters are also all over the spectrum.
If you haven't realized yet, they don't have an ideology besides winning elections and staying in power. They tell you what you want to hear.
As Bhagat is saying that he and the so called hard right people have nothing in common and infact they conflict each other but they both feel BJP represents them. How is that possible unless BJP is contradictiing itself?
You are no better than andhbhakts.
What an Eye opening Interview! Thanks Karan for this interview. This guy, Chetan Bhagat holds personal grudges against the people who criticised his writing and those people happen to be Left wing thoughts or ideology the so called liberals.
I never would have thought how he thinks actually without this interview.
Thanks once again #karanThapar
Journey of a bhakt to a rationalist.👍 Watching this for third time.
I found me perception right about Chetan that either he is yet not philosophically matured or scare being bullied by HARD RIGHTIST
Why is he so clueless? No clear view on any topic.
Hes not particularly bright
pretentious case of someone who craves validation of being seen as a liberal but is shit scared of over doing it.
Things are not BLACK and WHITE. There are different shades of GREY in LIFE. A practical man understands that.
@@srkchandrala1071 true. But he holds back a lot. Like he is too afraid to take a stand. Sometimes you just need to call a spade a spade.
@@dr.shahabqadir7622 Why do you think he is holding back. On all the things he is pukka sure, he presented his views. He didn't sugarcoat anything. When Bombay movie got released, there was so much noise. Tanishq ad also so much noise. You live life with that much pinch of salt.
Mr.Chetan is contradictory to his own statements at every 5 minutes.
No pappu
Where ? In fact Karan Thapar is not letting him say things against wire's agenda.
@@sourabhverma597 have ever watched republic, India Today interviews and debates?
If you do so, in that case karan is very professional in this interview!
@@sourabhverma597 actually i like chaitan coz he is expressing hard right views in respectful manner . as most of the time it is too difficult to talk to them as they abuse so much .like maa behan ki gaaliayan
@@vikasahlawat01 Agreed Vikas, but people changes theirs view points as per the convenience that is why need to drag them to the level they stood up.
What a great interview Karan well researched and to the point
And it was not allowed to get out of contexted for a movement
he might not be able to put it effectively, but he is talking what is out there.
Chetan is consistently contradicting his own quotes and leaving buffer zone in each questions simply need straight forward answer. afraid of sticking with his own view.
Mr. Chetan Bhagat: "Africa is the cradle of humanity!" "Be rich like US and Europe"! Do you know US was built on slave labour? Europe was built on the plunderings of the east! Which of these do you want India to do? Take slave labour or plunder from someone else?!
Perfect reply ❤️
Chetan Bhagat tried so hard not to get on the wrong side of the govt. But in trying that what he did was always contradicted his own statements.
True.
Correct what you said 100 percent.
Great interview taken.. Good questions Karan 👍👌.. Chetan was on backfoot and his hidden emotions got out.
In the whole interview he keep on saying that he want India to be rich and in the end when Karan asked him if India done well in case of economy, he agreed that it didn't but still he is not ready to blame it on him.
Karan is the sharpest mind in the media

chetan is very practical ! good answers
It's an interrogation. It is like preparing one topic for exam , and attempting all the questions with the same topic knowledge
Mr. Chetan Bhagat why did you come here without preparation? You are totally confused just like other bjp/rss supporters.
So true, Naveen ji.
None of these people are able to keep to the point, they are unable to substantiate/support their claims and/or ideas and almost all of them display embarrassing ignorance, regardless of whether they have degrees behind their names or not.
Then why liberals are unable to leverage their weaknesses... He spillled the beans about Hard right..but Still liberals are not ready to accept and let go off their prejudices...
@@shashankmijar2694 Shashanka ji, perhaps the prejudices are on the side of the right hard or soft? EVERY right without exception? Maybe "when we set aside ego, self interest, jealousy, insecurity etc. and are our true spiritual selves, away from the turbulence of self, we may log on to the meaning of things and see the world as it ought to be seen?" Of course, we don't expect the uneducated, the unexposed and those struggling merely to keep body and soul together, but Mr Bhagat? And other such privileged people? In an ideal world, the governors of the nation would be responsible for bringing about this vision, they have the power. For that, justice is a prerequisite which, unfortunately, we don't see.
@@nasreenrehman2001 as bagat said liberals are talking as if inhumane activities happening after 2014.. they dont utter a single word about what happened before 2014... They always target Modi since 2002.. this doesn't take them anywhere... When bagat said about muslim family forcing their doughter in law to convert forcefully Tapar interrupted him.. this is where liberals dont want to listen anything.. the reality is the former... Until or unless one dosnt accept the truth one cant bring the change.. and u cant beat BJP.. cuz they speak the truth , it may sound harsh for liberals but thats the ground reality that they r not ready to accept.
@@shashankmijar2694 it's not some deep insight, we all know what the hard right wing points are and Bhagat himself disagrees with those. He even blurted out that we are 'appeasing' them.
The problem is that somewhat sane people feel more comfortable associating themselves with right wing rather than liberals.
There is no doubt in my mind the hard right equally despises someone like Bhagat or sensible Hindus as much as the liberals do, maybe more.
At some point the sensible people have to ditch both extremes and go for the centrist party.
Unfortunately that party is congress and there in lies the rub.... Lefties think congress is BJP lite and righties think congress is Stalin. But congress is neither, it's a boring old centrist party that kept extreme elements in check.
To all my Hindu brothers - Being the slave of a fear is the worst form of slavery.
Then why r u commenting this?
@@nknkannadiga9742 Because Bhagat saheb here seems to be in fear of repercussions of calling spade a spade. You won't understand perhaps.
@@bassach373 well u too dont understand that he is being a centrist. I know that ur feeings got hurt
@@nknkannadiga9742 The world is fighting to be recognized as left right or center. I for sure know from reading and experience no one ideology is perfect. A nation as complex as ours cannot be run by people trying to impose any one ideology to achieve its full potential. However, identifying right from wrong is still a lot less easy than finding your place in left right or center." Perhaps" was used in my comment earlier to denote some scope that you might or might not understand where i am coming from in my response to a question you asked but clearly by ur comment to my response to ur question u too seem like many who may have passed the barrier from where probably understanding others is not a possibility anymore. U like God knew my feelings got hurt. I like a human left some scope that u might understand my response to a question u asked. Hope u might probably understand this comment perhaps. Hurt is not the state i am in. Worried would be a little closer to how i feel about this interview because clearly people are finding it difficult to call wrong ..... Wrong. Just because i believe a lot (lot amd not all) of his reponses wrong does not make him a bad person. It makes his responses wrong. We need to look at each other with a bit more openness instead of being rigid or judgy.
@@bassach373 the great thing of u is that u r assuming I am a close minded person. I am glad to know that u believe neither these ideologies are good. I replied u by thinking that u didnt know anything which is being a centrist. I feel this guy is a centrist. Anyway India is a free country. U dont have to agree with me and I dont have to agree with u.
