Hosted by ace political commentator, Kalyani Shankar, this series will provide groundbreaking insight into certain events of the past that shaped India and changed the course of our collective histories.

The "Insiders" featured in this series are no ordinary people and have held key positions of power and have been involved in policy and decision making processes.

From Pokhran-II to the 1971 Bangladesh War; from Kargil and the IC-814 hijack to the inception of insurgency in Kashmir; from the road to economic recovery in 1991 to when democracies collided with Mrs. Gandhi taking on the might of Nixon and the USA, the show throws light on all these incidents that shaped our nation?s history.

Commenting on the launch Mr. Jehangir S. Pocha, Co-Promoter, NewsX said : " ?The Insiders re-examines key events that shaped modern India through Kalyani Shankar?s free-wheeling and frank interviews with the key players involved in those events.
