00:00Is Brian Modi still as strong as it was 10 years ago? No.
00:03I think Brian Modi is not as invincible as it was 10 years ago.
00:07Now there are state leaders, local issues.
00:09BJP has also realised slowly,
00:11can't put all your eggs in Mr Modi's basket.
00:14Amit Shah and Narendra Modi are joined at the hip.
00:16Jodi number one.
00:18They've worked together for 40 years. That's a long time.
00:21So I think Amit Shah fulfils a particular role.
00:24He's the one who's the crisis manager.
00:26He's willing to do at times the sort of hard, dirty work
00:29if you want to call him, but the hard work.
00:31Mr Modi has the qualities that Shah doesn't.
00:33Mr Modi is a very charismatic orator.
00:36Some of his critics will call him demagogue,
00:38will say that, you know, hate speech.
00:39But the fact is,
00:41he is someone who can pump up the volume with supporters.
00:45Amit Shah cannot.
00:46Narendra Fadnavis after the Maharashtra victory
00:48certainly looks like a face for the future.
00:51He's young, comes from a big state,
00:54commercial state, CEO qualities,
00:58a bit of Modi in him.
01:00This model of doing journalism is facing a crisis,
01:04not just in India, but across the world.
01:07And technology is going to accentuate that problem
01:10because, you know, today,
01:13if I'm getting all my news on mobile,
01:15how do I sort of sustain engagement
01:18with viewers and readers
01:20beyond just the bite-sized information
01:23that they need on a mobile?
01:24Advertising revenues are plateauing
01:27across so many channels
01:29and with competing digital media, print media.
01:33So the business model has changed.
01:35National news often becomes Delhi-centric news.
01:38If you're from the South,
01:39you feel, where is our stories?
