    When he was narrating the incident of Amitabh showing his anger on Jaya, I immediately got reminded of my father who did the same thing to my mother. I hate people who use their spouse or house help as the punching bag to vent their anger because they don't have balls to vent on the person on whom they really intend to. They are nothing but cowards.

      The problem is that Karan doesn't understand people. Especially shy people. He expects people to speak a certain way (like himself) and when they are different, he gets uncomfortable and starts mocking them. The fundamental problem with extroverts is that they don't understand people-they don't understand around 50% of the human population- introverts. There are interviews where ARR opens up quite a bit (like with Simi Grewal or Vivek's interview for Tamil speakers) because the interviewer is genuine.

Miss you on tv Karan. wishing that someday some channel will have the requisite courage unlike all other channels who are lead by the politicians by their fingers not unlike a mom walking her baby and holding her or his baby hand. Cheers👍👍

      He is a Thapar. The subservient to the Khan-nehru dynasty. No one can touch KKT. Courage my foot.

      Just what i had in mind. He has do it soon. The cases and bails are pileing up at the congress family house. Rahulgandhi needs to do tofel and ielts to even get to his interview. Wil be very thrilled to see if he can ever interview Robert vadra.

    Such a rich bouquette of experiences shared by him.. Most hilarious was his expressions of hmm.. Uhmmm...we rolled out loud .. He is not only brave bt also extraordinarily expressive and owns a typical aura of brilliant calm composed journalism with tincture of comedy even in such a serious condition... Its awesome to watch him reporting 👍👍👍
