"Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?" – Martin Luther King, Jr.

In this Season 5 opener, we meet Capt. Ramesh Babu, Sainik School Kazhakkoottam alumnus and a man whose life embodies service — in uniform and beyond.

For 25 years in the Indian Navy, he served with distinction aboard INS Trishul, INS Veer, and INS Mumbai, where precision, discipline, and dedication were a way of life. Even then, his passion for history shone through as he created the Calicut Heritage Trails to raise funds for underprivileged children.

Retiring in 2021, he returned to his village in Central Kerala and co-founded “Spice of Life”, a charitable trust providing medical care, education, and rural empowerment.

From the decks of warships to the heart of his village, Capt. Ramesh proves that service is a lifelong calling. Join us as we share the story of a man who lives the spirit of giving back every day.

In this gripping episode 12 of season 4 of our podcast Call of Duty - Real Soldiers Real Stories, we sit down with Colonel Sunil Kotnala, a third-generation Army officer, fearless mountaineer, and now a passionate filmmaker and author. For Col Sunil Kotnala, it wasn’t just the glamour of the uniform that called to him—it was the edge. The uncertainty, the adrenaline, the rawness of life lived on the border between safety and sacrifice. That same edge continues to define him today, even after hanging his uniform.

From patrolling dangerous terrains to summiting mountain peaks, his life in olive green was marked by a deep love for both country and adventure. Now, in his second innings, he brings the same intensity to his storytelling—writing books and making films that uncover the courage, complexity, and humanity of soldiers and ordinary people alike.

Join us as we explore the incredible journey of a man who believes that life is best lived where the road disappears—on the edge. From the barracks to the base camp, from the battlefield to the big screen, Col Sunil Kotnala reminds us that no matter what chapter of life you’re in, the mission never really ends.

Listen, reflect, and get inspired.

Because when you live on the edge, you truly learn what it means to be alive.
