Prabhu Chawla

Prabhu Chawla (Hindi: प्रभु चावला) is the Editor of India Today, India's leading weekly newsmagazine India Today Group..

Born in 1946 in British India, he is one of India's better-known political journalists, known for his sharp political analysis and investigative reports. However, some argue that he built his career on the back of relationships, notably with his boss Aroon Purie. Today he is an authoritative voice in print and has a show on Aaj Tak called Seedhi Baat where he interviews prominent personalities.

He was awarded Padma Bhushan by the Indian government in 2003. A refugee from Pakistan, he arrived in Delhi in 1948. His college education was completed at the Deshbandhu College in Kalkaji. He began as a lecturer in Delhi University, then joined India Today, left for The Indian Express and then rejoined India Today first as editor of the Hindi edition and then the English one. He is married and has two sons.
