Prolific writer and popular politician Shashi Tharoor has a predilection for long words and telling phrases. His unerring sense of humour lightens up the serious oeuvre of his work which includes a powerful indictment of colonialism, a philosophical appreciation of the Hindu religion and hard-hitting political critiques. In conversation with Mihir Swarup Sharma, he speaks of the personal and the political and the beliefs and ideas that have anchored him in his public life and literary career. This episode is a live session from day 1 of #ZEEJLF2019.
