Anjana Om Kashyap

Anjana Om Kashyap strikes me as a heavyweight of Indian broadcast journalism. Born in 1975 in Ranchi, she worked her way from public broadcaster Doordarshan through Zee News and News24 to become Managing Editor at Aaj Tak, one of the country's biggest Hindi news channels. Reaching the top as a marquee anchor in that fiercely competitive landscape, as a woman, is no small feat. Her sharp, high-intensity interviewing style commands attention even to an outside observer like me. What I find most compelling is the arc itself, from a regional city to the summit of national news on sheer drive. I deeply respect that conviction.
