In this episode of #unraveled, host Marvi Sirmed talks with Rohit Sharma, a prominent voice in the Indian media landscape, to discuss the transformative dynamics that have reshaped journalism in India, from the rise of digital platforms to the challenges posed by fake news and political pressures.

As the Indian Lok Sabha election results loom just days away, Marvi and Rohit turn their attention to the political arena. Is Prime Minister Narendra Modi poised to secure another term, or is the opposition alliance gaining momentum? While Modi is likely to form the next government, reports suggest that his party, the BJP, may struggle to achieve an absolute majority.

This brings up key issues about the future of Indian democracy, a topic many commentators are currently exploring, including the media's role in creating an informed and engaged public. They discuss the ethical dilemmas journalists face today and the importance of protecting press freedom in a more polarized world.
