44:36 tbh it’s their fault and it’s not their fault , it’s the NDTVs fault that they were thinking that the government who’s lap they’re sitting in will go on forever
And it’s not their mistake now because , I mean think about it once you go up in life, then suddenly you can’t come back down , I mean imagine you’re used to driving a Mercedes now if you’re suddenly down to maruti suzuki , It will leave a bitter taste in your mouth
Now imagine you’re downed by the government, whom you thought you will control using your propaganda against 😂
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA😮 k;; to
She thinks Arnab makes more sense than Ravish
Bruh 😐
She never said that. Just said when they didnt have the same access they were not bitter about it. Please work on your comprehension.
The level of access NDTV was so deep that that they managed to celebrate their channels anniversary program from Rashtrapati Bhawan. Tell me one channel who could do this at present time.
And they still had the balls to do Ravish ki Report. Godi media will eat their own balls before they do anything close. I dare you to find me any report by Arnab after 2014 that comes even close to Ravish ki Report.
Exactly! That's why NDTV has turned so bitter, post 2014. The journalist she is talking about 42:36 is none other than, Barkha Dutt. Tbh it's quite scary!
Bjp won election without media in 2014 that's true but in 2019 bjp won because of godi media she did a podcast with Arnab so you can understand that she will never spoke against godi media or bjp
@@naushabatalat1332 arnab hasn't celebrated ceremony of his news channel in rashtrapati bhavan like RNDTV did when congress was in power. Rndtv and rubbish r REAL GODI MEDIA or GANDHI MEDIA. Sit down😂
BJP wins Mainly coz of schemes, then nationalism, then h1ndutva
@@CRuS4D3R88 ok that was wrong and ndtv must be criticised for that but in terms of credibility and sensible reporting ndtv is far better than godi media Ravish never shouts like a maniac drugs do drugs do journalist must be disciplined and calm not a joker
As an army brat, I totally agree with her about the temporary relationships, changing friends every 3 years, the immersion rod part, someone planting a tree God knows when and whosoever will come to reap the fruits. Everything has continued till this day and it feels so nostalgic but also relevant at the same time.
identical thought here as well, fellow brat
my family never lived in BSF quarters we lived in our own house in my hometown
@@t-t8961 ya, I do know a few families too who lived outside. That brings in a stability to one’s life for sure but then missing out the other part mentioned here. It’s a trade off
Outside the cantonment*
As a son of an IAF Soldier I approve too
What is so weird about listening to Sanskrit bulletin in the morning? It is a good habit.
It is a good habit, indeed, but I suppose any sense of weirdness that others may feel issues from the stereotype that Sanskrit is limited merely to cantillations.
Actually in that age kids don't like discipline.
@@SamvedIyer Bro,are you the same Samved who used to write on Quora's mithila right libertarians? Have seen your profile a lot in political discussions 😅
Abolutely, I dont find anything weird about it! I think she is trying hard to fit into the "vibe" of the show and hence such cheap comments! I lost bit of respect I had on her...
I am 50 years now , I use to listen Sanskrit news in morning I was child . It was really good to listen Sanskrit news .
Wow how she exposed RNDTV👀
In some sense, it was not an 'expose'; anyone with the least discernment already knew this. I suppose many among the younger generations watch the cacophonies of Republic TV and Times Now, and contrast it with NDTV's equanimity, and infer that the latter does journalism whereas the former two only erect a circus. It is not quite true. Certainly, a calmer tone is an important factor, but it is not the sole factor.
It was not expose. They were always an elite journalist institution. Their most reporters were children of IAS/IFS officers. But they were not crawling on ground like Arnab or some other. They had journalist ethics even if it meant being close to govt. Smita is wrong here comparing the two times. The quality of journalism has degraded substantially.
@@adarshverma2014 did that ethics also included fixing portfolios in UPA 2?
Yes! 'Radia Tapes'...iykyk😂
Bhai bhai bhai....🤣🤣🤣🤣
I believe, even with that access NDTV covered all the scams, corruption and criticized the ruling govt. But now, I don't see a single debate on Adani issue, Price rise etc...
I really liked how she called out NDTV and its crooked ways of working. No wonder their journalists always seemed to have a superiority complex. Because no matter what, they always had access !
So U have taken her word on face value. She started blaming audience for watching debate but refused to blame news channel for such practice.
@@nowwhat6716 Face value ? It's substantially evident how NDTV pushed itself passive aggressively to be on top in the electronic media category. And if you watched carefully, she actually blamed TV ( the channel ) culture.
@@MB-vm5ze There are so many people who are criticising Smita Ji out there in SHORTS of this Podcast by saying this " Ki Darwin Ko Evolution Ka Concept Samjha Rahi.."..
Problem is that people never listen to things properly.... They just pick up some random words in commentary and start doing their rant about it.... Smita Ji did criticise News Channel for such content if we listen it properly....
Moreover, Jinki Umar 30 saal nhi hain wo Ek Editor ko Advice de rahe hai jiska Journalistic Career 3 decade se jyada ka hai ......
@@vanshsapkal2826 she did a podcast with Arnab so she will never spoke against Godi media or bjp . Even though ndtv had this level of access but that doesn't change the fact that Godi media is just a circus with insane level of stupidly Cringe Reporting. If Godi media has no topics then they will show you some alien sh!t full timepass ndtv has never done that. Ravish Kumar is not a loud barking dog unlike arnab he is very calm
@@MB-vm5ze yet U fail to realise how she critique the individuals of NDTV but not critique any of her friends of godi media because she has access to them apparently. Let's say even if what she says about NDTV is true, are U saying two wrong makes something right.
I saw this mainly to see what she had to say about NDTV and if she would really say it, and yesss, she said it. I loved it. Worth my time. Congrats Smitha
Maturity is when you realise that a journalist bashing a media is not a concern....but a journalist not asking tough questions to people in power is a concern
The host seems bit inclined towards left by the way he asked about press freedom and the way se said meat is not available in Navaratra. Also he acted so innocent when Smita exposed Ravish and NDTV as if he is so new that he don't know involvement of NDTV journalist Barkha in Kargil, 26/11, Radia Tape, NDTV celebration in Rashtrapati Bhawan and journalists travelling with Manmohan and served with expensive drinks, etc.
@@prashantkhodecha7622 The host looks young enough to not know that much of previous history, so let's forgive him 😉
@@prashantkhodecha7622 barkha's involvement in Kargil and 26/11? She's a journalist she covered the events for new channels. How did you manage to implicate her for this?
At what time it starts
Smita Prakash after Tarun Gill is the greatest follow up in Indian podcasting history. Dostcast to the moon.
😂😂😂😂
tarun gill podcast is best after niks indian
@@ashwani6527 lord puneet
Niks Indian
Tarun gill
Dostcast 👌👌
Yeah I think about bhakt Banerjee and dhruv rathee ...ravish kumar
I have seen most of Smitaji’s podcasts. This is a special pleasure seeing her being interviewed.
same… I love listening to her
43:29 This is true and everybody in the media knows this. I was working for a telugu private channel who hired NDTV as "consultants" and those guys hardly helped us with anything. I brought this up with the higher ups that it's a waste of money for that so called consultant who doesnt even answer our phones. He told me that the real reason for hiring NDTV is to be in the good books of the dispensation of the day as they can broker to get "things done" with their connections and told me to ignore those consultants. Then I moved to another channel after a while and it was the same story there. Every regional channel was wooing them for their influence.
Ofc they would be unavailable. Quality work has a way of taking up one's time and attention 😌
Why does no one has exposed themselves in journalists fraternity or in opposition party ?
@@krishna_o15 Then who EXPOSED Burkha and SUARDESAI?
@@SAFFRONINFERNO the tape got public and it was publicly available in internet BJP RSS are lazy party. Also vir Sanghvi did a show defendi barkha
@@krishna_o15 Who released the TAPE?
If BJP is soft towards her Why is she today in a RUDAALI MODE IRRELEVANT DHABA HOPPING JUNK?
What I like about vinamra is he is unapologetic , straight forward and crisp in his questions, his views his agenda ....The way he said about BJP ..now third term ...in 2024 ...and with a poker face ..oh I so love that attitude. Keep it up bro. Young gen like you all podcasters are showing the way to everyone. So much to learn from u all. !!
Bjp in 2024 is just common sense😂😂😂
With a poker face i will tell you bjp will go soon. We ruled for such a long time and we will send you guys back soon.
@@sekarrao8054 every one has to go but how they go matters...fake Gandhi dynasty gone in bad light that it's them to leave fake Gandhi from party untill it won't come to governing
@@Tweetspecharchaa The only difference is that earlier they did not have electoral bonds to legally hide corruption, now they do. No more scams. Thanks to Adani jee's workers.
@@sekarrao8054 Bjp will not go anywhere until u have rahulgandhi ! Indians don't vote for foreigners post 2014
18:04 She described Indian democracy and constant election frenzy. Why India suffered for 70 years because the politicians never considered India as a permanent house. When house owners keeps changing, house staying in a good condition is the last priority. Difference between India and China.
Yeah. So let us make another north korea
@@sohamsteel1345 who said that..but that's the truth you need a level of nationalism to actually kickstart things.. Chinese came back and build what they can back in their country..same for korea
so indira gandhi was absolutely right in implementing the emergency ?? if a political party wats to destroy opposition and call the shots no matter the consequences then its not good for any democratic nation ,, someone who is just looking after the house should never feel he is the owner ,,, because its the house of the people not the political party
@@abhaypatel4292 and who will define the nationalism , a political party who thinks they can do anything they want just by invoking thw word ,,
Awesome experience of a podcast👌👌. Thank you very much🙏 for this episode with one of my most favourite media persons. The conversation was so eloquent that it was like reading a book which cannot be put down until we read the last word. ❤
Sanskrit bulletin is NOT odd. Very good thing done by Ms Prakash’s father!! We all should listen to it. And we all must know Samskrita.
"From lawns of the White House.." Repeated 10x times. It is still stuck in my head after so many years.....😁😁 @ANINewsIndia
The right guests with the right audience!
I know right!
There's no Right in India. Everything you see is non-left.
Lol right wing and left wing are french concepts which doesn't apply to India as there is no perticular ruler in times like now
@@raghavjoshi8587 Right. No party in India today keeps itself fixed to a particular side of political spectrum. Those who do, become like Left parties.
There was no pun.......what PPL call right wing is just what regular indians are
This was an amazing podcast among the best I have seen. Smitha Prakash opened up & gave such insightful answers. I have seen most of her podcasts. Here I came to know a lot more about her. She is a treasure & a legend. I Love the way she takes down the establishment in the media, even naming names.
What a gem of a discussion... very well done... its a treat to listen to Smita Prakash...
Just found your channel. Subscribed just for the wonderful amazing Smita Prakash!!

Great podcast. thanks for not trying to be faltu ka cool for the name of youth. great conversation.
Smitha ma'am, it was a beautiful journey which you described.. i was enjoying all through..
suddenly your COVID discussion came up. I really shuddered. It brought back my memories.. Me & my mom hosptalised with COVID and only i survived..
This is by far the epitome of your Podcast journey... loved it
The two crossover between two podcasts i enjoy to watch
It's interesting how people are eager to label you nowadays so that anything you say no matter if it's good or bad can be dismissed by those who don't agree with it. We no longer promote healthy debate and discussion but just want to label people as 'liberal' or 'andhbhakt' and both pro and anti BJP people are guilty of it.
Yeah those things are right.
I would like to digress and have a discussion on the words liberal and secular.
Before I start, I have no interest in politics. I don't support right or left or center. I just don't care.
People have forgotten the meaning. I mean we can't blame them, they all 10th fail prolly. Secular means to have all religions on an equal pedestal and that was agreed upon in the constitution and is one of the words in the preamble(first page). But unfortunately this word has become a way to target people and shame them for being rational and logical.
I've seen people commenting ki agar tum secular ho toh when muslim people ask for your mother give them that. I mean they commit so many logical fallacies
Nd that thing started by people like Dhruv rathi who thrown his frustration calling Andhbhakt.
The left leaning anti h1ndu t3rr0r1Ists started it
there is a reason for that ,, with almost nazi like propaganda driven news channels the pushback turned into vitriolic ,, all these news channels existed before 2014 too ,, i have never seen so much of demonising and it was started by pro bjp news channels ,,people used to protest before 2014 too ,, but no one demonised them like the present govt does ,, and news channels are supporting that political party ,, why difd they turned there narrative in such a way ,,
This was a very enjoyable conversation that I could identify with and learn from. Both of you were witty and observant. Smita was an open book and natural. Keep up. Thank you both.
Loved it ❤ keep adding more great people on podcast.
Brilliant episode. Her podcast is one of the best out there and the guests have been fantastic. Good going. 👍
We need journalists like her. Her podcasts are pure entertainment. Potshots at Pakistan, tadka of jingoism. I love it.
@@Mango42Researcher she should ask herself when was the last time she asked something to Amitshah like kya aap Aam kat ke khate he ya choos ke 😅😅
@@Mango42Researcher 'Tadka of jingoism-man' never realised she had Jairam Ramesh as her first guest and the recent one was Gaurav Gogoi.
@@blistering2900 when smita becomes a bollywood actress, she will. Till then let us enjoy rajdeep asking sonia if she makes pasta and what kind of mother in law was indira. Better still, when a student in bengal asks momo-ta didi a question, she throws a bitch fit and walks out barkinng"ee sala communist" to those students in audience😂 or pappu showing how young and funny he is by "stealing" ice creams of an instagram model..or throwing snowballs at this equally middleaged sister..or doing push-ups before girls younf enough to be his daughter.
I dont know how old you are or whats your education, but she has accomplished 20 times more than you'll EVER do.
This podcast deserves to be on the OG List!
Excellent podcast! So much to learn. Greatwork by dostcat & team
Good to find Smita Ji on the other side of the desk! You could grill her a little more and many more interesting 7things would tumble out. She has HUGE experience in journalism.
Came here to hear Smita, Ofcourse loved it but not to forget Mr.Vinamra, you too did a great job 👏🏻 well done bro & best wishes ❤
The only reason I can think of her talking about NDTV access in countries like Pakistan, USA etc is to establish that NDTV is working with an agenda against India with foreign help.
Not really. How would you do what NDTV did without proper access in India and other countries. What type of power would you wield to have done what they did. Do you not remember barkha dutts warped ews items where she painted kashmiri hindus as being responsible for their plight?
JUST SIMPLY LOVED THE CANDID CONVERSATION
Hey Vinamre, loved the podcast just one suggestion for your editing team to sync the audio and video. Although most of the audience love to listen but still at times when I was watching the podcast the audio was lagging way behind. Anyways kudos to your effort
Kudos to the team of Vinamre as it surely going to bring forth the audience that Ranveer caters to!
With Smita Prakash doing podcast with Sai Deepak , S Jaishankar and Arnab , you're team will have to give tough competition to Ranveer's team .
Hasnt she done podcasts with jairam ramesh and some left liberals
@@rl1900 it's necessary to hear other side's view point as well..no matter how idiotic the view point is 😂
TH-cam is filled with grifters. Har TH-camr ko right winger banna hi pad jaata hai. Saare views wahi hai. Smart business decision.
@@Burner__ exactly! That's why Ranveer and Vinamre are going top in the game because they know their audience! Eg. Ranvir does Black magic and alienshit podcast but it's real obvious that in practical life with his friends he is all normal and doesn't practice or believe in these things at all!
That's why respect!
@@Burner__ Bhai,Zakir Naik aur Owaisi bhi right wing hi hai. Rahul Gandhi bhi. Left only stands for socialism and communism. Muslim conservatives are right wingers too
Excellent loved this podcast .Got to know so much about Smita.I am very fond of her.Thank you.
The level of the guests that you're managing to bring! Keep it up!!!
The coolest podcast ever. I enjoyed it so much. Gonna watch the ani podcast too now...
Lovely interview... Thanks dostcast🤘👑👍

You both started with high end English and slowly moved to desi hindi and started talking about food.... that's really funny. But I happy that finally someone has taken Smita Prakash's interview. Really enjoyed it thoroughly
Beautiful Conversation ... Been following your podcasts for a while , But became a fan of #smitaprakash #ANI
What an interesting Podcast it was 😊❤ not skipping a single second..

Candid and honest to sum up, love u Smitha ji
Can watch it again and again and again...such an engaging conversation
Awesome podcast!!! 👏
Smita mam is so charming. She has a beautiful smile .Excellent oratory skills. ❤
18:00 exactly.
We used to plant trees have beautiful gardens and all of a sudden have to leave everything and move to new place. And that place there will be trees, flowers planted by someone else. That was an amazing feeling.
Now a days, ppl won't give even a glass of water to unknowns.
Great. Very methodical and incisive! Rock on!

Brilliant podcast! Thanks for bringing Smita Prakash!
Loved the podcast. Amazing guest.
Wow just kind of podcast to be watched. Superb
You have right to criticize anyone but I think this lady does not have enough knowledge even she does not concerned about the difference between bitterness and hatred.
Ravish Kumar used such tag like godi media because all these godi media channels does not fulfill their duty.
There there are some responsibilities of journalism.
Instead of that they all are just spreading hatred in a society.
one of the best podcast brother, so much to learn from her.
It's allready the best episode

Ravish Kumar was right in calling the channels godi media.

@dostcast may be your best one so far. Thoroughly enjoyed it!!!
People criticising Seema ji for her seemingly rightist approach must remember that everyone has their biases. But the true journalist will try to find the balance by not being blatant without the necessary facts. The true journalist will paint the picture whilst trying to be wholesome, rather than just putting up cropped up images.
I think the thing with NDTV was as she said, they always had the access no matter what. But post-jio era has substantially diminished the value of media's influence, as the value of ' access ' factor got substantially deminished. People no more rely on the media houses to form opinions. This has been seemed as a threat in many of the top tier journalists of the past and their agony of loosing the status and the stature is highly visible !
I really love this lady. She is cool. And her work is extraordinary.
Very very informative episode on the nature of Indian Journalism. A lot of stuff that we never knew about were revealed here. Smita ma'am is a walking encyclopedia on journalism.
This podcast was awesome. Listened to it in one sitting! Got an insight into the person Smitha Prakash.
Smita Prakash ji owned this podcast. She is more comfortable and confident than the host. Good lessons for this young peer.
Come on can't you see most of the Hindi news channel praising bjp all the day except one or two who actually have the guts to ask real and factual questions from the govt.
Reality all private media houses have a safe zone where they skip to discuss....... Weather it's BJP and godi Or ndtv and congress........ But the journalist at ndtv did used to ask question the congress just take the example of ravish.... There are many instances where he call manmohan sing by name...... Now the situation is different in godi media those journalists who question the govt are being fired........either u lick BJP shoe or destroy your career............ Just take the example of satyapal malik revelations arnab have not not even a single show... While any thing comes out about opposition even they jump on it
I like the way news anchors etc used to speak, it shows some decorum and grace. That used to be a gold standard of language at that time.
Thanku for getting Smita.
Just love her
Those who question Aam of Modi dont know about Pasta of Antonio Maino.
Same thing, I was thinking 😂😂 of.
Achhar of antonia as well
Correct !
They also dint know rndtv questioning rahul if he liked samosa😂
