SUNNY THOMASI THINK, I WRITE, I TEACH; THEREFORE I AM
Born in a small village in Kerala, I spent my formative years in the idyllic setting of the land of rivers and hillocks and a culture that is so distinct. But all that is beautiful has disappeared without a trace in modern affluence! The nostalgia of that beautiful human relationship I grew up in always inspires me to create something beautiful wherever I go.
I launched my journalistic career in Bombay, a city of Professional Paradise with an enchanting ambience of cosmopolitan culture that is today defaced by the political culture. After short tenures with The Indian Express and Free Press Journal, I came to New Delhi, the political wildlife sanctuary of India. There I spent nearly two decades with The Economic Times, reading voraciously and writing books. The transition from The Economic Times to The Times of India was smooth because it was a transit within the Times empire.
To make life meaningful, I started teaching. Initially, I started enjoying it more than my students. But of course, as time went by, they too started enjoying it as I could read it on their faces. Today when I switch on my television, I see my former students everywhere: I see Rahul Shivshankar and Sanket Upadhyaya on Times Now; Saira Jacob, Swati Maheshwari and Sweta Rajpal Kholi on NDTV; Gaurav Kalra and Mugdha Kalra on CNN-IBN; Rahul Kanwal and Hindol Sengupta with Headlines Today; and Sakkal Bhatt with Door-Darshan.
At the moment, I am with Times School of Journalism, which trains young journalists for The Times Group. A job that I have been doing for the past seven years and a job that I enjoy to the hilt.
