I'm from the northeast state of Mizoram. Many of the famous Mizo writers have spoken about Khushwant Singh especially his wit and humour. One writer whom I really like had a chat with Khushwant Singh. This was mentioned by another writer in his book followed by his jealousy of that guy for being able to had had that opportunity. This book became book of the year, Mizoram. There's many more of Mizo writer's admiration for Khushwant Singh.
He wrote about bawdy stuff, bordering vulgarity, because it SOLD. However, he wrote wonderfully well, in English. His memory, his knowledge of the scriptures, of Persian, Urdu, Punjabi, Sanskrit and his ability to translate that into "understandable" English , his ability to de - mystify and simplify complex verses into simple English is amazing. His anecdotal style is riveting. He wrote serious stuff too , reflecting the life and times of the era. A Train to Pakistan, The Mark of Vishnu are some that stand out.
Visa-problem. Although I have nationality of Denmark, my origin is from Pakistan. And that would be a problem, applying for indian visa. sadly @@KasauliTV
Yeah bro, he has faced the partition, the wars and so much more so he knows.Maybe things were different back then and how they present them today is different.

Loved this interview. Gives you some perspective on why he chose to write the way he did.
I knew him through his columns and books which were thoroughly entertaining and informative. He lived life on his own terms.

लेखक हो तो ऐसा
Reportedly, Sanjay Gandhi slapped his mother Indira at a ministerial meeting shocking everyone.
I have read train to Pakistan and company of a women.there is some sort of silence which we can feel in every phrase of those books.
Got to know about him from vinamra kasana shatir
Karan Thapar does not have the edge has has these days. Khushwant Singh is wonderful.
Let the Talk...don’t keep interrupting
Class 11 kv English 😅😅
❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
🙏🙏🙏
He was a durbari intellectual..overawed by d family
Have you really cared to read his literary works- fiction and non-fiction other than his jokes and syndicated columns?
A Very gullible Singh in his assessment of Sanjay Gandhi dictatorship.

Khatri vs Khatri
इसकी किताब पढ़ी end of india बड़ी वाहियात बाते लिखी है इस लेखक ने introduction पढ़ कर ही छोड़ दी मेने।
ठीक आदमी नही लगा मुझे ये देश के लिए
Usne sach likha hai na esi lie
Yeah bro, he has faced the partition, the wars and so much more so he knows.Maybe things were different back then and how they present them today is different.

He was very lucid writer. He had a very ribald sense of humour. But, he was definitely not a great intellectual.
Lootyens.
