At 56:50 there is a beautiful frame where just a random guy on his bicycle has got down from his bike and is watching these 2 gentlemen talk. There is something absolutely beautiful about that frame, takes me back down the memory lane when things were simple, we would also randomly leave our work and watch what's going on the road with curiosity. Neelesh sir aap kamaal hain

[@tapanpattani5394]

Salute to neelesh Mishra ! These are real interviews from heart ! Koi faltu ka taamjhaam nahi , koi paparazi nahi . Just pure talks . What a journey!

[@filmsbypankul]

Salute to the camera team who has covered this interview from such diverse angles. In the coming times the picturization of this interview will be talked about, taught and discussed.

[@narendradhakad5009]

Bhai ji jayada camera Angel bar bar change karne se audience distract hoti hai. Ye talented lekin naye aur seekhad logon ki nishani hai.

[@somalimukherjee7449]

So true... that interviews can also be conducted creatively!

[@rupinderaulakh5093]

What a dedicated personality Mehta sir is…, watching the biography I felt like ..’Art is like pulling water of love from within’ 💗🙏🍀

[@sg9238]

I wish to see *Mr. Chetan Bhagat* on this The SLOW Interview He had his beautiful life of journey what I want to listen here.

[@ShahbazKhan-yc9ts]

The only youtube channel where I dont skip advertisement at 5 seconds but rather watch it fully to get monetization. Good work should be supported in any small way possible

[@divasvats]

Last 3 minutes of this nearly 3 hours conversation took my breath away. Thank you Neelesh bhai.

[@saurabhlakhia]

Can I like this interview multiple times? Story teller and interviewer never crossed each other. He gave ample space to Hansal ji to open up. I really don't know what has really happened in the background. But this is one of the best interview ever listened. Also story of Hansal ji is nothing but inspiration to everyone. When you were born to do something great, you always meet right people along the way. Your judgement of keeping right people made you famous. Good luck for all your future projects !!

[@prateektembhekar135]

These are gold standard interviews.... calming, soothing and at the same time informative. Simplicity at its best. Thanks @neeleshmisra Sir for this.

[@krishnajinadeka]

No interview ever can beat these slow interviews. Thank you Neelesh ji for this experience.

[@chandansingh22]

Neelesh Bhai, Are you keeping well? I think you lost weight. Keep doing great work and take care of health.

[@sakketvrao1312]

Yes. I had the same question. He is looking very thin

[@SoumyadeepBhunia]

I had the question too!

[@ganeshmudegaonkar]

Ya Agree..

[@piyushjha8888]

Yeah same question

[@saurabh0305]

Neelesh bhai please respond

[@ivanrodrigues6229]

What a wonderful conversation. I am at 1.05 hrs in the interview and you and Hansal are transporting me to my childhood days of innocence, faith, duty and family. Thank you for slowing things down for us. I can actually smell the surroundings where you are. Stay Blessed.

[@ankurshukla7818]

Scam 1992 and Panchayat are the two best web series I have managed to watch on any OTT...without any crass/vulgar/violent story lines they have achieved what other Web series can't achieve!

[@preranafernandes2365]

M die hard fan of both web series.. Watched 20/25 times

[@surabhishroff7482]

A true fan who follows you since your time as RJ. My favorite line is, "Bas itni si thi yeh Kahani!". The purest form of an interview. I thoroughly enjoy all of them. Love your work, sir!

[@AudioSwami]

Shahid was such a masterpiece. Hansal Mehta is a gem for indian cinema.

[@AhsanHabib-js7ov]

The most awaited one for me as an aspiring filmmaker. Neelesh Misra and Samdish Bhatia are the two gems in interviewing. Their guest lists are even more amazing!

[@jessiepinkman5568]

Meeting with 1:49:04 Vishal Bhardwaj 1:58:00 Manoj Bajpai 2:10:00 anurag kashyap

[@mayankanand3414]

[@pritiparmar1002]

Can’t imagine movie Aligarh without Manoj Bajpai. What a movie Mr Mehta 👏👏👏👏👏👍

[@abhishekshahi2938]

Mehta sahab is a good story teller.. Keeping suspense till the end of the sentence with lots of ease. 🤣🤣

[@tapanpattani5394]

Kitne simple log hai yeh !!! Wow . This is real art people. Goosebumps

[@ashrii5241]

[@AbhishekSingh-nv2uq]

[@harjotaujla008]

Been born and raised in countryside.. I still lacked the art to be slow As I got in encounter with anxiety... But these videos revived that art in myself

[@apoorv2343]

Beautiful interview Neelesh sir , Keep inviting these talented artists like Hansal Mehta sir. Do invite Mohit Chauhan sir in your interview. He's magically making music and I think you both and us will have a spiritual connection like we had in this interview and every last of slow interview of yours. Once again i thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤

[@mohanisharma4861]

जिंदगी के सफर में गुजर जाते हैं जो मुकाम,,,,, वो फिर नहीं आते,,,, यही मेहता जी के इंटरव्यू का सार है,,,,, बहुत बढिया

[@omkarpawar9401]

Pure.... beautiful....one of the best Interviews i have ever seen.....Hansal Sir your memory is simply amazing...you still remember the people by their names...the way you introduced Manoj Sir, Anurag Kashyap shows your incredible strory telling ability...Both time I was like ye kon hoga ye kon hoga😅..And that 1 line of Gazal you sang....wowwww i was keep rewinding that part just to listen to that beautiful line in your voice...Thanks a lot Nilesh Sir🙏🏻

[@kanchanpant5173]

Alongwith the heart to heart tete between you two, im also happy with the background chatting,chirping,kawing,shrieking,hawking , hustling of the winged species 😃🙌🏻💕

[@prernabansal904]

Neelesh Sir, your Slow Interview show is very high on content. It's original and has the value to be watched again and again. The beauty of the show is how every guest unfolds his/her life nakedly and gives us some real-life lessons. So much to learn from you and your guests. Hansal Mehta' a Ji"s failure n dejection in life has taught me - that believe in yourself and do what makes you happy. Keep up the good stuff!

[@prashant381]

Lovely music. Most astonishing thing I didn't realize...that Nilesh didn't speak a full sentence or two until 2.22 ...even if that's editing. Coming here from Joe Rogan podcast...this is a different take on heartfelt conversations. What a life Hansal Mehta has led. So much to learn

[@sg9238]

Such a beautiful interview I saw, For me it was unexpected because I don't know Hansal Mehta before this interview he had inspired me at last when he said life is all about "work for happiness" and this so important so thank you so much The SLOW for sharing this interview.

[@imransidd8858]

I came to know about Hansal Mehta as a person through this interview... What an amazing person he is ...

[@guruveshpandit2358]

बहुत ही उम्दा बातचीत थी...बहुत कुछ जानने और समझने को मिला...बहुत ही नेक काम कर रहे हैं सर आप...हंसल सर का अंत में यह कहना कि अपनी जिंदगी में खुश रहिए...चाहे आपके सामने लाखों रुपए क्यों न रखे हों...आपकी खुशी से बढ़कर कुछ नहीं है... दिल से बहुत-बहुत धन्यवाद आप दोनों को 🙏❤️❤️

[@slice_of_life4803]

What an amazing journey. Had goosebumps throughout the interview as he kept introducing the characters which are now jems of Hindi cinema

[@saurabh0305]

One of the best conversation ! Surprisingly I felt I was there to hear it

[@InstantGermany]

Zindagi struggle hai jo Jhel gaya vo Jeet gaya

[@pinkiverma1912]

Gulzar sahab in Slow interview

[@ShaileshDsz]

What a different and beautiful style Mishra ji has with this slow interview format. Literally unwinds the subject and viewer.

[@snehalbhatt4671]

This episode can (should) be shared with top film making schools. It will inspire and give confidence to many budding as well as existing filmmakers to not just see the light at the end of the tunnel, but also give strength to pick themselves up after every bad film. It is by far the best episode of the series! Supreme.

[@holdabook1768]

What an interview..what a man ...Hansal ji ..what a wisdom u bestowed on us...

[@shaliniattre3134]

Very serene interview wherein the guest has plenty of space to tell his story ! Your episodes are always a treat to watch,thanks🌸🌸😊

[@manasjyotitalukdar2683]

Longest interview (even if not a typical one) I have watched without being distracted. And my takeaway is just as he said in the end, "maza aya dost", aapko sunke. 🤝

[@premupadhyay9446]

Dear Neelesh Ji, your attachment with village is adorable. Seems you got it from your mother. Great work . Keep going.

[@nabs5644]

This is my new addiction.love your show and the choice of guests is amazing 👏 👌. Keep up the good work sir, lot to learn from you and all your mehman's.

[@Wetooexplore]

Beautifully documented the Hansal Mehta interview. I get much relativity from his experience and his journey up and down. I gained a lot of learning from this interview. Thanks for showing this, Neelesh & slow team.

[@siddharth0401]

Citylights had a huge impact on me, beautiful film

[@ajinkyasawadh2154]

People like hansal Mehta has lived his early life so close to super talented.. Successful legendary people. Just look at the people he mentions in the interview. So much window of opportunities these people have got. His grandfather was a doctor whom dilip Sahab Nargis etc used to visit. Still people deny class advantage, nepotism and even Reservations in govt jobs and college admissions.

[@gautambathla5256]

नीलेश जी नमस्कार, हंसल मेहता के अवचेतन मन से रुबरू करवाने के लिए आपका बहुत-बहुत धन्यवाद। कृष्ण कुमार कुन्नथ (केके )जी की याद पर एक साक्षात्कार अगर आप समय निकाल कर कर सके तो आपकी अति कृपा होगी ।

[@jaymisra5415]

नीलेश सर ,बहुत सुकून मिलता है ,आपका ये कार्यक्रम सुनकर । कृपया स्वास्थ्य का ध्यान रखें।

[@kamumbai]

Beautiful feelings, and honestly expressed. Thank you to both of you

[@krishnakant1553]

The times are tough and everything feels so toxic. I kept thinking about it for a while. I think I know it now. Slow interview is not an escape. It fills some kind of life in us to bear everything and stay sane.

Thank You so much neelesh sir ...God bless you

[@siddharthpathak356]

One sentence only :-- Maza aaya (bahot).. Big salute..

[@AnkitGupta-fm7pd]

The people should have the humility and manners to say "Thanks" to the person serving tea to you and your guests. Unfortunately, I don't see any such thing at 41:19. Watch how Pankaj Tripathi and Piyush Mishra thanked the person serving tea to them.

[@mannsunveer]

Love what you do Neelesh Bhai and your family contribution to the society through education.
