A similar podcast with Sanjeev Sanyal, Vikram Sampath, Anand Ranganathan, and J Sai Deepak will be 'EPIC'
Yeah 👍
Bro this panel will blast the scene Even 5 Tehseen Poonawala cant tackle them 😂
@@subhjalan4576we should call arfa Rana and Saba Naqvi
Without abijith we can't imagine this 3hr podcast. He is such a entertainer
Also Sushant
H is on the wrong place.😂 You must be tamizhian because tamil doesn't have "Bh" letter.
@@pranav_jungade Tamil had that letter and sound but it was deliberately removed
@@AyushKumar-eg6kftamills have an obsession to make their language unique
Tehsheen is like that guy who has to defend the school bully because he is his best friend since childhood despite knowing that the bully is wrong. Tehsheen, bro, I know how you feel. It's really difficult to defend someone who you know is in the wrong. But he has made his bed. He has to sleep on it. His leap of logic sometimes surprised even him lmao. Just cut him some slack guys... you were too harsh on him. Toda rehem karo.
Sushant Sir never talks nonsense. It's tehseen always. Anand Sir and sushant Sir always put their facts with evidences and without any prejudice. They have guts to criticise current government policies too,which tehseen lacks( that he can't even comments on his party poor decisions).tehseen is just another Congress loyalist.
As an indian from South i dont see north as separate. In Bangalore we live together irrespective of language barriers. No BS politics can change our mentality of being indian
Just share it. If you are bharathiya 🙏🕉️🇮🇳
Let’s stand together against congress divide and rule tactics.
Happy about your comment. :) Sad about the fact that this has to be said every now and then :')
@@zaidpatel8695 Congress govt in both Karnataka & Telangana will fall after 2024 LS Elections, Operation Lotus will be at play after the results.
Why these sentences need to be said , that's a sad thing
"2G maat bolna" 😂this was so witty and quick. Anand is the best of all of them
😂😂
My American daughter and I have become huge fans of the great Smita Prakash!!! She is exactly like my dearly departed mother, a truly formidable woman who knew how to keep a bunch of people in line. God Bless You!
I am writing from Florida and frankly I am hearing this discussion for the first time,to give you some perspective,I moved from Okara,Pakistan during Partition,left India when I was 19 years old,by fate got married to a girl in Chicago,whose father was an I C S and Patel’s right hand man ,and was in charge of the Hyderabad action,during my interaction with him during his vanish years He emphatically stated that Nehru was a moron Not at all intelligent,this is coming from a man who was on every important meeting on the matters of India,my Memory tells me of at least over 25 meetings In the presence of Mountbatten ,and Baldev Singh , Patel and Some other big wigs Anyone who was an I C S had to have been a very intelligent person and whatever I have known about Nehru I would agree with him, Most of the problems India is facing today is a result of Nehru ‘s folly’s India would know the truth if all the Nehru papers are made public Regards
Sir, add gandhi’s name in the list as well. If it weren’t for gandhi, no onw would have even question nehru for prime minister job. Gandhi and nehru were british stooges and they were solely responsible for India not growing till 1991
The Samosa Caucus must be held at the end of every Quarter to review and analyze the evnts of the time period
Agreed 👍💯
So truee 🎉❤❤
Completely agreed! 💯
I'm from Odisha and I feel proud when I see that my state has come out from a cycle of poverty and starvation in 90s to becoming No.1 in Food Security and also in Disaster Management🩵
Jai Jagannath! 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Abhijit also loved Odhisha😂
@@rtprtprtprtp Jai Jagannath brother Raviteja!
I am a new mother with barely 4 hours of sleep. I use ANI podcast to keep myself awake through the long feeding sessions. It also helps me be in touch with whats happening outside home .. its a great platform and kudos to Smita Prakash. You perseverance and passion reaches to my heart.
That's heartening to hear.
Congratulations for becoming a mother
Congratulations!! This is a big difference I see in India. Young mothers are interested in politics, and news. Stay with it……
Hello ma'am, You can also listen to podcasts featuring gynecologist or Pediatrics.
@@IlmiMulhidk2A get out
As much as i dont agree with Tehseen politically, i admire his personality and tenacity to be so positive in situations where he is outnumbered.
He has become very mature from the last edition. In the last one he was talking nonsense and all about Congress but this time he talked sensibly and also went against Congress in many things
Along with Sai Deepak, Vikram Sampath and Sanjeev sanyal...we should remember many others like Dr Meenakshi Jain and Prof. Kapil Kapoor who have opened may common man's (like me) eyes!! thanks to free digital media!!
जय श्री राम 💐💐🙏
3 hours well spent! Better than watching a movie👏
No doubt Better to watch AiM as a Donkey than watching Dunki
Yes ur absolutely rite👍👍👍👍 3 hrs spending is worth full we get to know about political intellectual view had a blast with abhijit sense of humour so spending some thousands bug in theater for stupid movies it's utter waste.
Abhijit Mitra is just amazing with sarcasm, fun, intellect, facts. Nice package.❤😊
If you guys wana do this, we want you to keep doing it more frequently. Its fun, informative and unlike anything else.
I really enjoyed this podcast. I live in the UK and have done so for the last 50 plus years, I was born here but I am of Hindu punjabi heritage. I have family in India. I love India and am so happy to see its rise. This podcast is brilliant and the people debating are a million times more knowledgeable then any analysts etc that you will find in the UK. For decades india had an inferiority complex about itself and its abilities because of the legacy of British colonial rule. You guys are doing great, keep striving forward, try to stay united and I see a bright future for India. I've studied international politics and I can tell you the west is sinking fast. The UK is turning into a real sh*t hole. They have imported millions of crazy immigrants from mainly Islamic countries who are causing havoc within the society. Their education especially at school level is terrible and they have a dumbed down population. They have a terrible, arrogant, biased media who constantly feed to public rubbish and propaganda especially anti india propaganda. They have a few elite universities and private schools which are very good but these are hard to get into and not really accessible by most of the population. The USA, UK and most of the west is going downhill fast.
I've been re-watching the past two podcasts with these four gentlemen and eagerly waiting for their year end reunion, and I'm thrilled to see them come again! 🌻 Thank you ma'am for this!
Baawli ho jaogi bar bar dekh k
Even though the video was 3 hrs long, I felt it was not enough. I want samosa caucus 3.0 soon. I don’t support Tehseen’s views but the way he handles all of them bullying him is awesome!!😂
I am writing from Australia and really liked this show with substance, sarcasm and fun.😊 Sushant and Anand are really good with facts and knowledge.
It was Pappu who started the north south divide when he said voters in the South are more saner than the north Indians
Insane person said it. Pappu Pagaleshwar Baba.
As an adult and political enthusiast, this is real entertainment for me 🔥
Man, Teheseen logics and arguments especially on Mahua case 😂😂😂
The samosa caucas is probably becoming a year end event! AIM and AR are absolute entertainers with amazing intellect!!
Tahaseen punawala is like a transparent Gubbara with a loud speaker. No matter how much he speaks , junta to sab dikh jata hai
Thank you sushant for saying this- Tehseen has a problem of interpretation and comprehension. That was exactly what I wanted to say all along the previous two podcasts. Thanks for articulating it so well.
Tehsin agricultural sector is NOT taxed, in fact they get subsidies on various farming products like fertiliser or insecticide etc even the rich farmers get it & are NOT taxed.
He was talking factually, tobacco growing is also agriculture, tea , coffee, rubber, arecanut etc
Mr AIM - the eloquence of explaining the expansion of foreign service is a masterclass !
2:04:42 “it belongs to a family” 😂😂 this by sushant didn’t get the laughs it deserved.
A huge fan of Dr. Ranganath and Abhijit. Really like their perspective and opinions which are brazenly honest.🙋
Few days ago there was a event in IITB Powai. While returning from Powai Busstop to Andheri Bus Stn, I incidentally met a Tamilian Family of Four. I had a chat with the seniormost male in english and it was quite a pleasant chat. He mentioned Udayanidhi stalin as someone he inspires a lot in his home town. This shows the societal imprint of Tamil Nadu politics churning out the seeds sown by Justice Part back in 1900s. Well, I was very welcoming to this Tamilian Person and had no feelings of north-south divide. In his speech too, it never inflicted that he's something separate to India. India being first priority to him irrespective of his support to separatist political party of TN. Rightly discussed North-South Divide segment in this Podcast❤ Kudos to ANI Smitha Prakash!!!
everything you said is fine.. but this gentleman from south who gets inspiration from udayanidhi... i am wondering what quality in him this guy gets inspired for???🤣🤣
Who all agree that the entire 3hrs of this podcast never went boring anytime in between? It was fun/hilarious at times/very informative for laymen like us on many subjects...
Smitaji, just as your podcast with Smriti Irani was extremely revealing and hair-raising, your Samosa Caucus 2 has been extremely fun and enjoyable. Hats off to you!
You should do a similar hangout with some friendly journalists too like Palki, Arnab, Rubika, Rahul Shivshankar etc
None of them would get along, there is no intellectual framework of traditional media
This is the most. civilized and scholarly political discussion I heard in the recent past.
Modi govt is the one made suitable environment for technology and social dilogues to be able to cone out on social platform and brought out facts of real history of Undia. Give credit where it is due, Mr. Sushant. I agree with Abhijit.
Being from the south, I absolutely hate the North South divide. We Indians are one, and our voting preferences do not separate us. We should be united and march ahead on the path of development and progress.
Unfortunately people in South have an embedded state superiority complex which makes them naive at certain times
south indians are on the verge of becoming like abrahamic faiths , their identity superiority in degrading them. they are nice people but unduly hate towards north indians especially is creating divide.
@@ishaanrohmetra3447DMK has done this single handedly. I'm Tamil n we are ashamed of them. This will be their last term.
Friends ke sath ghumne ka program cancel krke ye 3 ghante ka masterpiece dekh rahe hain...This gang is becoming a brand within themselves and kudos to them for speaking out their mind and clearing the clouds very finely....agar Sai deepak bhaiya ko bhi bulaate to aur achchaa lagta.. But still, love from Team Krishna Calling.
I absolutely love Anand ranganathan. Dream is to have Anand ranganathan and J Sai Deepak as Amit shah and Modi
the existance of abhijit feel's so harmless and jolly that he randomly orate dank shit and it leaves people speechless instead of arguing
Anand and j sai has opened our youth eyes and saved us to fall in propogenda of left sockularisam thanks to them
Better than any comedy show. 😂😂😂 Intellectual comedians
That's why they called Samosa caucus This for information entertainment dual role
This podcast is supposed to be light hearted.
When Sushant speaks everybody listens
Hi Smita, always a pleasure to meet these 4 boys. Enjoy their personal and political banter. Not to mention their political acumen. I wish the country's politics would have this kind of matured political seriousness and togetherness between parties as against mud slinging.
I was waiting for this podcast for almost a week, let's continue this tradition for upcoming years as well..
As a stock market investor now I am sure Modiji would win a 3rd time and I can peacefully stay invested for 2024. 😂😂
Abhijit's statements always neutralises the whole scenario with laughter 54:55 and Anand was as always the bestest
Which journalist is he talking about? please tell me
It was a good fun episode. I specially loved Mr Abhijit mitra Iyer 's humour and wise observations.
Tehseen is really great, I do not know how many people can defend their side of the ideology with so much fun against 4 people. Hats off to you bro, keep coming to this podcast.
Great nahi yaar, pedigree (nasal) waisi chaatne waalon ki hai.
They have some baised view toward BJP but Tehseen is good speaker have many points which are serious mistake of bjp.
@@omdevsinhzala811 There're all speaking facts there's no bias
Feel sad for Tehseen, what all bullshit he has to defend.
No one asked him to be where he is.
Tehseen who actually is an Odd-One-Out has managed to be part of the Group very well. 😅
He is like Bell in the temple
@@UreTriggered Jo bhi aaye Baja ke jaaye 😅
These are actual debates,which keeps the people interested to listen to the debate and keep audience engaged
Wish this conversation was 10 hours long, congratulations Smita ji
Superb format. All 4 are terrific, so cerebral, intellectual & articulate , including the interviewer. She held a very dignified self in all the boy-talk. This discussion was so good, that I wouldn't mind paying a small fee to attend this.. (very UN-Indian like, as we like lotsa free & pirated stuff). But, it was v good ❤❤❤
Abhijeet is right...no one remembering mahua mohitra now...
Need the 3.0 edition of samosa Caucas on Ram Mandir please
Tehseen is trying to compete or pull himself down to Rahul Gandhi level of iq.
That's true. Wait wait I am also there on the train. 🤣🤣🤣
You all are so loving. Always a privilege to savour such uncensored humaristic coversations.
As someone trying to learn more about our country and the current political climate, I appreciate the varied opinions and factual sources presented.
Started watching 3 days ago, finally completed watching.
Same here...maybe all harsha's r the same
Me 2 days
Please do this once every 4 months. This episode was a joy ride. Amazing ANI. love you for this

Who are these youtubers they're talking about in the end?
I am not taking sides, neither I am bothered about what happened in the past. All I know is that Modi is winning because Hindus are not finding another option. Now u call it, Congress mistake or not but they are in their own world of thoughts with appeasement. For now Modi is the best option. But for 2029, we need a party that focuses on economic development and the majority centric right wing party. As of now, I can't see any other option.
Tehseen doesn't let Anand speak and Sushant paaji is the only one to stand up and shutup tehseen . Tehseen please be more sensible and leave congress
Maja aa gya ....and Tehseen ko itna credit dena hoga sabko ki vo baaki congressiyo ki tarah sabkuch defend nahi karta hai ...He is a good man 👌
Indeed
He is a really good spokesperson... Better than the rest of the Congress party members...In fact, in a way, he is promoting himself amongst people through this platform
@@sanidhya1928that's why he is hated by many Congress members
This was the best thing to watch on NYE with a drink...amazing speakers , chemistry and talks...Thanks for the Slow Horses mention too, amazing show.
My year end weekend of 3 hr 18 min 44 sec well spent; outdoor location - nice idea, well-argued show. ANI more of outdoor shows please, at least that is change of landscape. This is coming from a person who is an Indian from North of India.
This podcast is nearly the length of Animal, but this is much more infotainment along with everyone's witty jokes
kaha ka kaha se connect kar diya 😭🤣🤣
@@gargvanitit might be a masterpiece, but could it stand against AIM's witty remarks ?
@@gargvanityeah Masterpiece if you love the lead actor shouting and fighting with massy BGM but when it comes to story it sucked big black balls
Great to see the samosa caucus with same guys as last yr. Keep doing this kind of show, love it.
2:04:20 Anand Ranganathan's mimicry of Shashi Kapoor " Bhai mein aa raha hoon" is hillerious.
One observation - Sushant Sareen, Anand Ranganathan and Abijit Iyer Mitra make astute political analysis without any bias or agenda. Unfortunately the same can not be said about Tehseen Poonawalla. He sounds more like a congi spokesperson. In future, we would like to see 1 podcast without any spokesperson of any political party or to balance it out, ANI should invite Shehzad Poonawalla in Samosa Caucus 3.0 edition 😊
तहसीन की तारीफ करता हूँ, एक वाहियात पार्टी को सपोर्ट करना, और टिके रहना, बड़ी बात है बाकी लोगों को तो मेहनत करने की जरूरत नहीं है, सिर्फ सच बाहर लाना है लेकिन तहसीन के लिए कितना कठिन रहा होगा ऐसी चीजों को बचाव करना जो एक पार्टी आज तक कर चुकी है
Nice to see there is no ego among this 5! Thanks to all the kids behind the scene running and serving the guests ❤❤
I really dont understand Tehsim at times. Clearly well educated, polite and a persona of caliber and yet he ties himself down to the corrupt dynasty of congress. Almost like a resemblance of karna siding with duryodhan.
It probably stems from the relationship between him and his brother who is in BJP.
@@abhay1294 shehzad was in congress when he started though. It either seems that this arrangement was well thought out or purely (foolishly) ironical for Tehsim.
Tehsim seems to believe in Congress as a party that led the freedom movement, he is being too idealistic
The reality is Tehseen is married to the sister of Robert Vadra. So he is family to priyanka gandhi since he is her nananth's husband. That's the reason both the poonawala brothers were in Congress. Shehzaad fell out with rahul gandhi since he was not allowed to grow there. Tehseen is unable to walk out for the sake of Robert Vadra ..
Woww... 100 mins of pure entertainment... Thanks ANI for this awesome Caucus...
A podcast with Sanjeev Sanyal Vikram Sampath and J Sai Deepak please
Whenever i see these five together it tells me Democracy is Vibrant & is in full form in India 😂❤.
I'm waiting for the day when you invite Ajeet Bharti, Maj Gaurav Arya, Vaibhav Singh.
6 TAKEY KE KZheadRS!!!!!

Simple Path for restoring glory of India---First improve infrastructure( esp.

Modern day 21st century capitalist World will respect us automatically...Respect out of fear and inhumanity havent lasted long in society!...Global respect will automatically follow!👍☮️
And trust me when I say this that this can be done within a week , just put 500 rupee fine for throwing trash, Indians will never throw or spit. Delhi Metro is super clean because of this fine.
Sushant Sareen Sir is the Boss when it comes to Pakistan. Long life to you Sir. Jai Maa Bharti, Thank you v much for this episode
This was a fun discussion. Some of the key highlights - the shout out to True Indology, Smita’s comment about getting serious when Shashi Tharoor’s name was mentioned as PM candidate, Sushant’s insights on Pakistan and AIM’s “catty” side😅. It’s the end of the year so makes sense to keep the convo light hearted. One interesting thing though - how does Tehseen who happens to be Priyanka Vadra’s relative by marriage get a seat at the table?
He has as much to do with Rahul Gandhi as Varun Gandhi.
I am from Krishnagar where Mahua is MP, i it is one of my regret, that my locals choose her.
You are not letting Rangnathan speak! 😬
Irrespective of ideological differences, Always love you guys together, all five of you. Waiting for Samosa caucus 3.0 before 2024 general elections.
Thank you for taking the feedback from last time and improving upon it. It was less of a ruckus, less interruptions and much more structured. Amazing listening and understanding everyone's viewpoints. Thank you!!
I came here only for anand rangnathan❤❤❤
I can watch these four everyday no matter how long the podcast, this is funnier than movie
3+ hrs of good humour and entertainment. Bring more of these and include j sai Deepak next time
Whenever I see Abhijit Iyer Mitra, I click instantly.
We need Nupur Sharma on here ma'am.
Tehseen is probably the only Congress supporter who speaks some sense and also acknowledges mistakes made by the party Other Congresses are living in pure delusion. The party needs to listen to him more often The depth of knowledge possessed by Abhijit and Sushant on the international front is amazing Anand of course is pretty witty 👍 Hope to see this group in another podcast soon 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
Honestly Tehseen is like a punching bag here....its literally 4:1....🤣🤣
My appreciation for Smita for always being gracious, warm & lovely as a host across these podcasts ❤
Enjoyed the postcard. Better and more humorous than a three-hour-long movie.
I love this group so much. You guys should form a band
tehseen is painfully stuck with congress. he is not even trying to defend anymore😂
This Podcast is so damn educational. My only complain is that it happens only one time a year!
Loved the conversation. This podcast is such a highlight, 3 hours passed by like a blink. The people on the podcast are the best ... But again, Tehseen should let people speak more and get his facts right 😂 Abhijeet - a perfect blend of fun and intellectual person, Sushant- A responsible intellectual person, & Dr Ranganathan - An intellectual who gets to speak less but whenever he does, nobody can ignore him.
How could I have missed this Samasa Caucus before today? I need to watch the earlier episodes. I always watch and really enjoy Smita Prakash's /ANI podcasts but somehow had not seen the Samosa caucus.
