In Season 09 Episode 09, the TalkJunktion crew dives deep into the mind of one of India’s most iconic and deeply misunderstood historical figures: Bhagat Singh.
While history textbooks often focus solely on his fiery revolutionary acts, we take this episode to explore his profound intellectual side. From his radical socio-political ideologies to his seminal essay "Why I Am an Atheist," we break down the reading habits, philosophical evolution, and visionary ideas that drove a 23-year-old to shake an entire empire. If you think you know Bhagat Singh, this exploration of his life and philosophy might just make you think again.
