Barkha Dutt: The New Age 'Brave' Woman
Barkha Dutt is the face of new liberated Indian woman. This unbelievably brave woman can do anything, go the war front or Taliban infested Afghanistan. There is absolutely nothing in her 'can't do' list. Where did the making of this famous Indian woman begin.
Growing
Up
With
A
Role
Model..
Barkha
Dutt
is
the
daughter
of
an
Air
India
officer
and
Prabha
Dutt,
a
popular
journalist
in
the
60s
and
70s.
So
she
had
all
the
inspiration
she
needed
right
at
home.
She
had
an
exceptionally
good
education
wherein
she
went
to
Modern
High
School
and
St.
Stephen
College
in
Delhi
for
a
Bachelors
in
English
Literature.
She
completed
her
higher
education
in
Mass
Communication
from
the
prestigious
Jamia
Millia
University
and
then
off
she
went
to
Columbia
which
is
arguably
the
best
school
of
Journalism
in
the
world!
She
a
member
of
the
board
at
Columbia
now
many
years
after
she
passed
out
and
created
ripples
in
the
world
media.
Path
Breaking
Career..
She
started
as
a
common
reporter
in
the
early
1990s
and
little
did
anybody
know
she
would
shoot
to
fame
the
way
she
did.
In
1999
came
the
Kargil
border
skirmish
but
among
the
public
it
was
open
war.
She
was
the
brave
woman
who
went
to
the
war
front
in
Kargil
and
lived
with
the
soldiers
there
to
cover
the
war
first
hand.
This
was
India's
first
experience
of
watching
'live'
military
action
and
the
rest
is
history.
The
telecasts
from
Kargil
done
by
her
became
a
national
phenomenon
and
is
responsible
for
spearheading
24
hours
news
channels
in
India.
Thousands
of
teenaged
girls
in
average
Indian
households
had
a
new
female
role
model.
They
wanted
to
be
like
that
girl
with
a
short
haircut
clad
in
jeans
and
kurtas,
covering
the
change
of
history!
Since
Kargil..
As
they
say
nothing
succeeds
like
success.
Barkha
Dutt
got
a
war
heroes
welcome
after
Kargil
and
went
on
to
join
the
club
of
most
famous
journalists
in
India
and
the
World.
She
has
covered
every
event
or
story
of
national
importance
since
then
being
in
the
forefront
of
national
television
news.
She
has
interviewed
every
important
foreign
delegate
or
celebrity
who
has
come
to
India.
The
story
of
her
success
begins
with
valour
and
ends
in
glory.
She
is
now
an
Editor-Partner
in
NDTV,
one
of
India's
prime
news
channels
and
hosts
the
popular
show
'We
The
People'.
Accolades
and
Tributes..
She
is
now
officially
Padma
Shri
Barkha
Dutt
as
this
great
civilian
honour
was
bestowed
upon
her
by
the
Indian
government
recognising
her
service
to
the
nation.
But
her
biggest
compliment
probably
comes
from
being
depicted
in
two
very
popular
Bollywood
movies.
The
character
of
Romilla
Dutta
in
the
movie
Laskya
and
the
role
of
feisty
journalist
in
No
One
Killed
Jessica
are
based
on
her.
An undeniably brave woman and a great professional who has left her mark on history.
