RAISING REFLECTIVE LEARNERS
YASHVI – Please tell me about your struggle for your signature show DNA, Sudhir Ji.
SUDHIR- I started my career with great difficulty and criticism. Though I managed to be a part of ZEE MEDIA, it was very difficult for me to convince my team, the society and designer reporters to accept our show which is far beyond the dazzle of fame and shows reality.
YASHVI-How has your family supported you?SUDHIR-Frankly speaking , what I am today is because of my family and by the grace of God.
YASHVI - Who is your Godfather?SUDHIR - Actually no one, I believe in hard work and myself.
YASHVI - Do you believe in God?SUDHIR - Yes, there is a supreme being who runs the whole universe.
YASHVI - Who is your role model?SUDHIR - Dr. Subhash Chandra (my mentor), Chairman of ESSEL Group
YASHVI- I really adore the way you say your signature word Buddhijivi, What does this word signify?SUDHIR – Buddhijivi actually means intellectuals but I think you better understand that I use this word sarcastically for our so called intellectuals on my show DNA.
YASHVI - I watch your show DNA on regular basis and it gives me an insight to analyze every report of yours. What inspired you for this number one show?SUDHIR - First of all, I never expected this show would be a great success. It is just because of the affection and trust of people on me and on my team. I started this show with the hope to change venomous trend of today which advertises the anti–national and irrelevant issues, more than the issues of national interest. I just took the first step and this family grew and grew.
YASHVI-What message would you like to give to our students?SUDHIR- I would wish the students of Salwan Public School Ghaziabad to be sincere, honest and diligent and I want them to be the symbol of true ''Buddhijivi''.
