“ I am out of superlatives - outstanding, stunning, colourful, fascinating, and generally immensely enjoyable travelogue/history lesson. Michael Wood's "The Story of India" is, I think, his best yet. It mirrored my own very personal visit there, (and our own DVD!) as I returned both in time and distance to the "British Raj" days of Simla, where I was born. I later had the pleasure of meeting Michael at a book-signing at Ely Cathedral. Top marks to everyone involved in this brilliant project. If it does not win a top award, I shall want to know why. ”

“An outstanding achievement. This DVD is accurate, comprehensive, mesmerising and entirely representative. A real masterpiece. It is the most perfect introduction to an extremely complex country, as many do not know of India's past beyond it's British period. I do hope Mr Wood has received some awards for this work, as it is the most prize-worthy documentary I have watched in a very long time.”

“I have not completely watched the video which I have borrowed from a friend but the part where Micheal Wood suggests that Aryans had migrated from Europe into India is completely false. There is also a part where he says that Sanskrit originated from outside India. This so called Aryan Invasion Theory has now been completely debunked as false even by Western Indologists. I have been told by my friends that this is a superb video on India otherwise so let me completely watch it and comment upon it. ”
