Full of mistakes

At one point, the writer confuses Indrajit with his uncle. He also repeatable refers to Hindus as “The Hindis”. Hindi is just one language amongst hundreds in India. At most he could have used the term Hindustanis.

Shocking that Amazon would allow such basic mistakes to make its way to their listeners
