First of all, political parties do all kind of politics to win elections and it is somewhat acceptable. This is not just in India but everywhere in a democratic country this happen regularly but problem is the role of media in the society. We all have witnessed the kind of hate in the society that was targeted on everyone's mind from all major news outlet. It already brought India few decades behind the rest of the world in terms of common mentality of the society. Also, we should be thankful that there was no large scale riot. Whole India went to the edge of the cliff but somehow managed to not fall down because of journalists like Ravish Kumar, Purna Prasun Abjpai, Abhishar Sharma, etc.
And NDTV which stood against everyone else and continued their reporting clean and unbiased. They tried their best to keep society together.
Prannoy Roy who stood behind the scenes also deserves all the respect.

I am watching him from the age of 12 and I am 25 yrs old right now . He is the one who made me a citizen of the democratic country instead of just an Indian. I have nothing but love admiration and respect for this man. It is sad and sickening to see how the same people, who praised him before 2014, who praised him for the work and questions he asked, but suddenly as soon as they came into power and he started questioning them instead (which is a journalist's job) , he suddenly becomes anti india and baised according to them and a systematic harassment and hate campaign was launched against him calling him traitor Pakistani and what not. Fortunately some people's morale and love of their work specially public service work like journalism is unshakeable and unconditional and he is one of those rare ones who truly showcased that. As an indian, I am proud to have someone like him in our media along with many other but at the same time when I see what he and other good journalists goes through everyday I sometimes feel that we Indians really don't deserve people like them all we deserve is a shouting clowns like Arnab goswami.
It's a must watch newsroom drama. Showcase the reality and struggles of journalism. Ravish Kumar in this Documentary is exceptional.
The first 30-40 minutes of the film move very fast. The editing is quick, scenes and locations transition fast. While We Watched gives the feel of a newsroom where different people, with different ideologies and beliefs, work together. Social media will have us believe that everything is black and white, but in the real world, adjustments and compromises have to be made. The film gets into the heart of that.
'While We Watched' is a vivid portrait of a man i.e. Ravish Kumar who reminds us that by knowing you are doing the right thing is its own reward.
