This weekend on CNN's Talk Asia, the channel's New Delhi bureau chief and senior international correspondent Satinder Bindra can be seen in an in-depth interview with Bharti Group chairman Sunil Bharti Mittal. He established India's largest telecom group, worth more than $ 6 billion.

The episode will be aired on 19 February at 9:30 am and also at 7 pm and 10:30 pm. The repeat telecast can be seen on 20 February at 5 pm and 8:30 pm and also on 21 February at 9 am.

During this half-hour conversation, Mittal reveals what he thinks has been his biggest competitive strength. He talks about how passion and inspirational leadership have helped him drive the organization and overcome tough challenges.

When asked about his vision for the future, Mittal said, "I've been looking at an opportunity outside telecom, which we've wanted to kick start now, which in two or three years time is ready to be taken to the next level... one of the areas where India has tremendous strength, is in the area of agriculture, and it's least exploited."

Talking about his future, Mittal said his plan would be to build and modernise airports in India. He said, "It's high impact, a big statement for the Indian government to the world, and more importantly, impacting 40 million passengers... who will come in and out of the airport. India is a big tourist destination now and a big business destination - where are the airports? We are too far behind." He added, "We hope we'll get the honor to build this airport."
