NDTV announced the appointment of sports journalist Boria Majumdar as Consulting Editor. One of the most credible and visible names in Indian media, he has broken exclusive stories, reported from global arenas, and authored bestsellers for over two decades.
He co-authored Playing It My Way, the official autobiography of Sachin Tendulkar. He has interviewed every Indian cricket captain since Sourav Ganguly, delivered exclusive coverage from multiple World Cups and Olympics, and led some of the most compelling sports journalism on air and in print.
Prior to joining NDTV, he founded Revsportz, a digital-first, comprehensive holistic multi-sports platform.
Boria Majumdar said, “This is a new NDTV. And I have been working on building a very new kind of Indian sports media narrative – one that breaks format, that gives Olympic and Paralympic sports their rightful place. It’s bold, and it’s overdue.”
He added, “Sport isn’t entertainment. It is identity. It is culture. It is diplomacy. It’s where a nation stands when the anthem plays. At NDTV, the idea is to bring that lens to every report. To go deeper. To connect the dots. And to ask better questions.”
Rahul Kanwal, CEO and Editor in Chief, NDTV, said, “Boria Majumdar is the most high-impact sports journalists in the industry today. His depth of knowledge and nuanced understanding of the world of sports are truly exceptional. At NDTV, we’re excited to collaborate with Boria to deliver high-quality sports reportage, in-depth analysis, and marquee events.”
