Ram Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I like the british accent. I like it even better if an Indian speaks it well. My first and only knowledge of Bhaskar was this Top Gear interview. I think he is must be quite popular in the UK , considering the fact that he was a guest in Top Gear , which in itself is a very popular programme. He comes across as a very like able humble and funny guy. "http://youtube.com/watch?v=HoThHAcxozA" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gorah_pindu Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Michal Wood's The Story of India is also worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer1 Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Michal Wood's The Story of India is also worthwhile. I thought the passion in Michael Woods' oratory was made it stand out. The series taught me more than a few things I didnt know about India! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaurav Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 Michal Wood's The Story of India is also worthwhile. I would say it's 100 times better in terms of knowledge and imagery :two_thumbs_up: 6 parts in all but only 3 I could find. Each part is a docu on it's own and worth watching! MUST WATCH!!!!!

gorah_pindu Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 They are also on youtube and stuff. I think he was a bit vague on many areas of Indian history. But its still the only multi-part series to have ever explored Indian history. Better to read a book really - John Keay's 'India: A History' or Romila Thapar's 'Early India'...

Gaurav Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 They are also on youtube and stuff.. I think he was a bit vague on many areas of Indian history. Yeah I agree. Still an excellent watch and a good attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holysmoke Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 From the same series.. (India and Pakistan 07) there is this documentry on Mumbai. I can upload it somewhere if you guys are interested..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorah_pindu Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 BBC have produced a fcuukload of India documentaries this year.... - Sanjeev Bhaskar's India (four part hour long each show) - Ganges (three part hour long each show) - Story of India (six part hour long each show) - Masterpieces of the East (six part hour long each show showing six pieces of Indian art) - Indian CIties (Mumbai, Delhi's Metro, Kolkata, etc, hour long each) - Partition (about the partition obiously) - ....etc.... A lot of that was released on various torrent sites. Also look out for: - Discovery Atlas: India Revealed Thats the same thing as the two hour show on China last year which Discovery did. Hopefully some fine camerawork to show off natural and artiifical beauty. I guess India is finally beggining to be seen as the next China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gorah_pindu Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Wish they would do something original like a fantasy show set in India or something. Enough desi actors here to pull it off... Make the next Doctor Who into Sanjeev Bhaskar :haha: Too much focus on modern Indian stuff like partition as usual - but progress is being made at least.
