Known as the Father of India's Space Programme, Vikram Sarabhai's interests included space and nuclear energy, architecture, industry and business, institution building, management development, art, music, and theatre. He was a scientist and entrepreneur, an educator, and a businessman. When he passed away unexpectedly at the young age of 52, he left behind a legacy few can match, having set up internationally reputed institutions and organisations that have made India proud and put us on the world map.

In this episode of BIC Talks, Dr. Padmanabh K Joshi, who heads the Vikram Sarabhai Archives at the Nehru Foundation for Development, Ahmedabad and author & publisher Divya Arora, discuss the towering personality of Dr.Sarabhai and share various anecdotes, from Dr.Joshi's personal interaction with him as a young man and bits of information to piece together a wholly fuller image of the person. They have jointly authored the book, Vikram Sarabhai India's Space Pioneer- an illustrated biography for Dr. Sarabhai's birth centenary in 2019, which is testament to their mutual admiration and love for Dr. Sarabhai and his work.
