  • Episode 19 - 3 Idiots (Maj Joy Dasgupta, Sena Medal (Gallantry))

    Episode 19 - 3 Idiots (Maj Joy Dasgupta, Sena Medal (Gallantry))
    Jul 24 2023

    Episode 19 is about Major Joy Dasgupta, Sena Medal (Gallantry), 18 Grenadiers, Indian Army. An unstoppable story of an undaunted soldier who won 3 battles to accomplish his mission. A second generation soldier and the first officer from his family, this bold, upstanding, hyperactive and candid Army Officer came up as the only living legend of his state from his unit to be honoured with a Gallantry Award of India, for his leadership by personal example, exceptional courage and bravery during The Kargil War of 1999. Coming from the Indian state of Telangana and like the film 3 Idiots, Maj Dasgupta contributed thrice to his nation - twice as a soldier with both father and he being war heroes and once by rejoining the Army as an officer again during a national emergency. A Soldier never quits till he is dead.

    Episode 18 - PK (Lt Praveen Kumar, VrC)
    Jul 18 2023

    Episode 18 is about Lieutenant Praveen Kumar, Vir Chakra, 14 Sikh, Indian Army. A thrilling story of an unpretentious soldier who went about his battle very matter-of-fact. A third generation soldier and the first officer from his family, this wise, reliable, balanced, soft spoken but tough Army Officer surfaced as the only living legend of his state from his unit and regiment to be honoured with The Third Highest War Time Gallantry Award of India, for his professional competence, unparalleled and unorthodox tact during The Kargil War of 1999. Coming from the Indian state of Haryana and like the film PK, Colonel PK, VrC (Retd) is an embodiment of simple living-high thinking. When all the wars are done, a butterfly will still be beautiful.

The Best Tribute to Unsung Heroes

Thankyou Akhil for this path breaking endeavour. You have brought to fore the gallant deeds of these unsung heroes whose acts were not as glamourised as some others. The idea is innovative and narration keeps the audience captive. I also must compliment you for a painstakingly detailed research. Keep it up!

Motivational and worth

Loved the stories of the heroes of the Kargil war. I was always waiting for the next Episode. But this podcast should include heroes from other services also and more stories of Warriors other than officers should be included.

Outstanding Storytelling Podcast

I have listened to 4 episodes and was mesmerized by the variety and never heard stories. I could see some of the heroes of the stories praising this podcast themselves on the review panel which shows how rich and truthful is this work on kargil war. One storyteller who speaks so many languages and do so many voice overs is unbelievable. Thanks audible for an outstanding original podcast. looking forward to season 2.
