October 30,2025: NDTV has announced the appointment of Sucherita Kukreti as Senior Executive Editor & Prime Time Anchor, NDTV India.
A highly respected bilingual anchor, Sucherita brings over two decades of experience in television journalism. She has helmed prominent Hindi debates and English prime-time shows, earning recognition for her clarity, presence, and ability to navigate complex issues with balance and conviction. Her career began at India TV, where she quickly rose to prominence for her sharp and credible reporting. She later joined Republic Bharat for her second stint in 2019, anchoring the flagship debate show Mahabharat and establishing herself as one of the most recognisable faces in Hindi television news.
Her bilingual fluency has set her apart in the industry, allowing her to anchor both Hindi debates and English broadcasts with equal authority — a versatility few anchors command. This ability to move seamlessly between two languages has given her a rare connection with audiences across diverse segments.
An alumna of Sri Venkateswara College, University of Delhi, Sucherita holds a degree in English Literature. Her academic grounding complements her journalistic instincts, enabling her to approach complex issues with nuance and insight. She was honoured by the Governor of Uttar Pradesh Anandiben Patel for excellence in journalism, a testament to her impact and credibility in the field.
Speaking about her new role, Sucherita says, “Joining NDTV India is an exciting new chapter. It’s a platform that stands for integrity, depth, and spirited discussions — values I deeply resonate with. I’m looking forward to engaging audiences with substance and sincerity and contributing to conversations that matter.”
Rahul Kanwal, CEO and Editor-in-Chief of NDTV, said on her appointment: ‘Sucherita represents the rigour and versatility that NDTV stands for. Her credibility, sharp journalistic instincts, and command over both Hindi and English will add great strength to our prime-time offering.’
Sucherita brings both strength and spirit to NDTV India. As NDTV India enters a phase of transformation, her presence in prime time will help frame conversations that define the national agenda. This is the new NDTV for a new India — rooted in credibility, powered by clarity, and committed to journalism with depth and purpose.
