TRANSCRIPT:

Introducing Speaker:

I’m going to tell you something that you may not know about our next speaker. Did you know when he was still in school he was a star NCC Cadet. And he went to UK to train with the British Army, the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force. Did you know that he is a big believer in protection of animals? A few years ago, PETA ranked him as the ‘Person of the year’. We all know him as an actor, but very few of us know that he’s also a writer and a producer.

So ladies and gentlemen, bring down the roof. Let’s welcome Mr. R. Madhavan!

Madhavan – Actor

Oh! Very good afternoon. Thank you very much.

When I first came in and I saw this setup I was blown. I was talking to a doctor in the evening last night and she was saying this forum should be as big as TED. With this sort of preparation and the kind of speakers you are, I think you’ll soon be as big if not more prominent than TED in India.

And so I wish you all the very best for it.
