"Hello and welcome to the Big Picture". These lines reverberate in my mind whenever I think of Girish Nikam. The guy has left an indelible imprint on my psyche and psyche of many others. His shows were like the staple diet for aspirants of Civil Services Examination. I always dreamt of giving a civil service interview with Nikam as one of the interviewers. What an experience that would have been? However, death is the ultimate reality of life. Howsoever high any one becomes in the life but death will ultimate dust all of us.
Nikam did not just deliver the content. He taught us a way of thinking in multi-dimensional and multi-perspective manner through his program. My respect for him increases multifold when I juxtapose him with Rajat Sharma, Rahul Kanwar and Arnab Goswami. The latter set of journalist sold their journalistic ethics to sensationalism, partisan politics and money power. Among those soulless spirits, Girish was a vanguard of ethical ans sensible journalism. May his soul rest in peace. Your lines will keep reverberating in my mind for time to come.
