Palki Sharma Launches New Media Venture, India Global Review (IGR)

Palki Sharma’s Starting New media Venture, India Global Review?

From prime-time newsrooms to building her own global media platform, Palki Sharma is stepping into a new phase of her career with the launch of India Global Review (IGR).

The Indian journalist has officially announced IGR as a new digital-first global media company headquartered in India. The move is already being seen as one of the biggest independent media launches by an Indian news personality in recent years, especially at a time when audiences are increasingly looking for alternative global news perspectives outside traditional television networks.

According to the announcement, IGR will focus on world affairs through what Palki Sharma describes as “a distinctly Indian lens.” The platform is expected to expand across regions including the United States, Europe, West Asia, South Asia, and Africa, while distributing content through internet platforms and connected television (CTV) ecosystems.

What Is Palki Sharma Trying to Build With IGR?

The launch positions IGR as more than just another digital news company. Instead, it appears to be an attempt to create a globally accessible Indian media voice focused on international affairs, geopolitics, and world storytelling.

Speaking about the vision behind the platform, Palki Sharma said:

“India is no longer just part of the global conversation, it is shaping it. With India Global Review, we aim to build a credible, independent platform that brings clarity to world affairs through an Indian lens.”

That statement reflects a much larger shift currently happening in global media.

Audiences today are increasingly moving toward personality-led journalism, creator-driven news ecosystems, and independent digital platforms instead of relying only on traditional broadcast networks. 

Over the years, Palki Sharma built a strong audience base through her sharp geopolitical analysis, international coverage, and presentation style, making her one of India’s most recognised English news anchors in the digital era.

What Happens Next for India Global Review (IGR)?

Alongside the announcement, IGR has also opened hiring across editorial, production, and digital roles in multiple geographies, signalling ambitious expansion plans right from the start.

Before launching IGR, Palki Sharma served as Managing Editor at Firstpost under Network18. She recently stepped down from the role after becoming one of the most recognisable faces in India’s international news coverage space.

With creator-led media platforms rapidly growing across India, IGR could now become one of the most closely watched launches in the journalism and digital media industry this year.
