That roused my curiosity, dressed way too glamorously to be taken seriously, I mentally dismissed the entire interview ( the ensemble was almost a replica of Koffee with Karan) and wondered what she would actually ask the young verbose politician. I tuned in probably mid-way through the show, where she was asking him some personal question about the nuances of his marriage to Sara Abdullah, where he blushed and mumbled something about how though Faroque Abdullah might not be close enough to be the father figure the love they share is unanimously linked to their love for Sara. Before, the commercial break she did reveal that they were in the hot and humid natural setting of Pilot's ancestral village.
Again, Koel moved on to play in true Karan Johar style I'll spout rapid questions that the guest must answer (rapid fire question round). They were actually more interesting than I predicted as it gave one a peek into the personality of the man, the humility of the man . He confessed that a bad quality that he believed he possessed was his inabiliy to say a straight No and described himself as a sort of this sort of wishy washy person. Also, to her credit she did manage to elicit very personal responses about his own personal ambitions where Pilot did admit that he did have a long way to go and that he really hasnt been able to achieve anything substantial as yet.
Also, later the recent norm of comparing any idealistic young leader to be the next Barack Obama was made. Koel Purie as the interviewer didnt taclke his political ideologies as say Karan Thapar might in Devil's Advocate but she did manage to give us a glimpse into the personal charecteritics that shape the decisions of the engigmatic leader.But, Sachin Pilot's comfort with the surroundings inspite of the heat and the buzzing flies coupled with his responses did reveal a striving modest young leader.
