- VS Naipaul was among the few Indians who were awarded the Nobel Prize. He received the award for his immense contribution to literature, writing over 30 books. Besides the Nobel, he won many other literary awards. But more than awards and knighthood, He is known for his travelogue style writing, which began with a trilogy on India. In this old conversation with Shekhar Gupta on Walk The talk, Sir Vidia talks about his life, works and feuds with fellow writers.

It seems cameraman's previous job was of a wedding videographer . Left ,right, centre ,360° , zoom in , zoom out ....uffff
photon ..my thoughts exactly. Absolutely terrible. There should be the death penalty for inept clowns like this cameramen. Even the interviewer is so boring, with his hackneyed questions. and remarks. But at least Naipaul got enough time to speak his bought, be cause Shekhar let him.
Walked up and down behind the person they interviewed lol
"Future is contained in the present." Very wise words Mr. Naipaul! RIP.
The camera person is used to walk the talk and so (s)he does.
its walk the talk, it seems the cameraman has decided to take a walk!
"when jargon meets jargon, there is no cause" so very well said.. i wish I can remember this when I get carried away
Sir V.S. Naipaul is very subtle in his approach,he tries to observe things as they are with multiple moving parts large and small.
Couldn’t be more fitting tribute for this Lord of letters. NDTV, thanks for uploading this.
Monumental literary figure. High standards with a keen eye on humanity.
You were the greatest writer I came across. RIP
I haven’t read him yet, what book should I start with?
@@augustycizauzo6372 can you tell me which county you are from?
@@JitendraKumar-tt3ht America
@@augustycizauzo6372 A turn is south, it is about his visits to the Southern state of the USA.
@@JitendraKumar-tt3ht okay I will check it out thank you!
He correctly articulated about future of left parties
And he refused to say anything about the bjp, except that he loves their passion
I may not agree with some of his writings... BUT having read his work.. I can certainly agree he was a brilliant writer & pathbreaker. His thoughts were very pointed & deep.
He didn't love your religion though
@@rishi333dey9 I think that might be a reason he doesn't agree with his writings.
Jumping from one question to another as a typical leftist who wants to hear the intended answer to all his questions, Mr. Gupta was not able to bring the talk to the level of his guest.
Feel sorry for VS Naipaul, having to go through an interview with an
average not up to the mark interviewer.
I was just writing on CTC page how SG is everywhere. And today I was randomly searching content on VS Naipaul. And he is SG interviewing him. What a guy !
Far sighted human being
the last line says all...its no important...so true
Oh God. Shekar Gupta.
What’s the cameraman doing? Can’t be still. Seems like he had renal colic.
The camera man checking the angle during the interview gets me cracking...
Days when NDTV was unbiased.
RIP
Deal with smaller things rather than always big things
but to see his reality you need a worthy buffering personality like sir vidia to be there.
Don't go for theories but see the world as it is and try to find truths there. The world is full of theories and India has much more than other nations.
What can one do, what can one do.....wasnt it really elegant to listen to??
Why didn't Mr. Naipaul slap the cameraman? I would've!
After finishing the video I think Mr. Naipaul should've slapped Gupta as well.
what's wrong with the camera man? why can't he sit still.
"To look at the present very hard and without prejudice,....." Looking "very hard." Looking "very hard." Looking "very hard." And Mr. Naipaul has said that a colonial lacks both intelligence and focus. He got that back problem because of the condition of the colonized.
Explain everything in simple terms read his writing truly genius, outstanding, pathbreaking
Where should I start with his books?
@@augustycizauzo6372 you can read "A Bend in the River"
@@mannan9034 thank you, you know i was at the book store earlier this week and saw naipaul nearby murakami and chose a murakami book. I regret it now, I am not enjoying this. Will go with a bend in the road next
@@augustycizauzo6372 A Bend in the river gives you an idea of the aftermath situation after African countries have been decolonized. Before buying a book, you can check its genre to determine whether you have an interest in it or not.
@@mannan9034 i dont know much about africa so that sounds interesting. Yeah I tried a new genre out of curiosity. I usually read classic fiction.
NDTV should remove its ideology but rather serve Indian intellectual life.
Rip
Great interview, but terrible, terrible coverage.
Criminal camera work
