Gotham Chopra (born Gautam Chopra on February 23, 1975) is an American sports documentarian, media entrepreneur, producer, podcast host, director, journalist, and author.[1] He is a co-founder of Religion of Sports, Liquid Comics, Chopra Media, and the Chopra Well.[1][2]His work often focuses on sports themes, having worked with athletes such as Tom Brady, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Simone Biles and Michael Strahan.[1][3][4]
Early life
Chopra was born Gautam Chopra in what is now part of the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts in 1975, the son of spiritualist and author Deepak Chopra and his wife, Rita.[5][6][7] He is a first-generation American and the first in his family to be born outside of India.[1] He and his sister Mallika were raised in the Boston suburb of Lincoln.[8][9][1] As a child, Chopra was extremely interested in sports, enough that his mother worried that he would never have a career.[6] He is a lifelong Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins fan.[1][7] His favorite athlete while growing up was Larry Bird.[1] At age 13, he went on tour "as a roadie" with Michael Jackson, a friend of his father's, on his Dangerous World Tour.[8] Chopra's father was busy and rarely home during the first years of Chopra's childhood.[10][6] He recalls that his father drank and smoked a lot until he joined the Transcendental Meditation (TM) movement when Chopra was five.[6][10] The family as a whole started practicing TM.[6]
Chopra graduated from Belmont Hill School in 1993, then Columbia University with a bachelor's degree in English and Literature.[9][11][12][13] In 1993, while Chopra was in college, the family relocated to California.[6] While at Columbia, he wrote his first book, Child of the Dawn, and helped Michael Jackson write lyrics to his songs.[14][13][15]
Career
After graduating from Columbia, Chopra was a news anchor for the Los Angeles-based Channel One News, which broadcast to teenagers in social studies classes across the United States.[6][9]He found out later that he was hired because one of the Channel One executives was a fan of his fathers'.[6] He became a war correspondent and was stationed internationally.[16][15][6][17] It was during this time that a producer recommended Chopra change the spelling of his name, Gautam, to match how he pronounced it to prevent mispronunciation.[18][5] In August 2001, he was arrested at Islamabad International Airport when empty bullet shells were found in his bag. These were a gift from the Taliban, who he had been in Pakistan to interview. His father, at this point popular within celebrity circles, called Colin Powell and arranged his release. Within a few weeks, 9/11 occurred and Chopra's interview tapes were confiscated.[6] Other interviews he conducted during this time were with George W. Bush, John Glenn, and the Dalai Lama.[15][5]He left Channel One in 2005.[9][15] Between 2006 and 2008, he worked as a consultant for Current TV.[9]
In 2000, he co-founded Chopra Media with his sister Mallika.[9] This company primarily develops media initiatives for their father but also oversees television shows and films.[19] In 2012, Chopra launched the YouTube channel The Chopra Well along with his father and sister.[9][2]This channel features a number of healthy and spiritual living tips, guided meditations, and guest interviews.[20] At its debut, Vicente Fox, Paulo Coelho, Lisa Ling, and Fran Drescher were featured.[20] Chopra helped create a virtual reality meditation video game, called Finding Your True Self, with his father in 2016.[21]
In 2006, he, Sharad Devarajan, and Suresh Seetharaman co-founded Virgin Comics and convinced Sir Richard Branson to invest.[16][2] In 2008, the company changed its name to Liquid Comics following management changes.[22] Chopra co-created the Bulletproof Monk comics with Brett Lewis and R. A. Jones.[17] Chopra also produced the 2003 film based on the series.[23] Devarajan, Chopra, and Seetharaman established Graphic India in 2011 under the Liquid Comics name. This company focuses on the Indian youth market and the creation of characters inspired by Indian myth and legend.[24][10] Peter Chernin joined the team as an investor in 2013 and is a joint owner of Graphic India.[25]
In 2012, Chopra created, produced, and directed Decoding Deepak about his father.[26] In 2014, Chopra hosted the talk show Help Desk on the Oprah Winfrey Network.[18][27] In 2015, he was the executive producer on Kobe Bryant's Muse on Showtime.[7][4] He also directed The Little Master, a documentary about Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar as part of ESPN's 30 for 30series,[7][4] and directed and produced I Am Giant about New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz.[28]
Religion of Sports
Religion of Sports, a sports-focused media company, was founded in 2016 by Chopra, Michael Strahan, and Tom Brady.[29][3][30] Chopra created, directed, produced, and narrated the docuseries Religion of Sports, which examines the profound influence sports can have on societies and cultures beyond entertainment value.[31] The show's third series aired in 2018.[32]
Religion of Sports' Why We Fight, an eight-part docuseries about opioid addiction in sports starring Zachary Wohlman, received a Sports Emmy nomination in 2018 in Outstanding Serialized Sports Documentary.[33][34] This was Chopra's first Sports Emmy nomination.[33] Also in 2018, Tom vs Time, a docuseries about Tom Brady's off-season training. The series aired on Facebook Watch.[1][35] It won a Sports Emmy for Outstanding Serialized Sports Documentary in 2019.[36][37] The same year, Shut Up and Dribble was nominated for Outstanding Open/Tease and Outstanding Sports Promotional Announcement at the Sports Emmys.[38] The three-part docuseries, which aired on Showtime, was inspired by Fox News host Laura Ingraham's February 2017 comment that LeBron James and Kevin Durant should stay out of politics and "shut up and dribble".[39][32] The series, produced by LeBron James and directed by Chopra, shows "attempts by NBA players to bring about social change and speak up politically" throughout the years.[3][40][41][32] The first season of Greatness Code, which highlights defining moments in athletes' careers, aired in July 2020; the second season aired in May 2022.[42] The ESPN+ series Man in the Arena: Tom Brady, which focuses on Tom Brady's career, was nominated for two Sports Emmys.[43]
Chopra is also involved with several podcasts for Religion of Sports, including as the host for Man in the Arena: Tom Brady and Why Sports Matter (with Tom Brady and Michael Strahan).[32][29][43] He produces Crushed, a podcast about steroids in baseball, in collaboration with PRX.[44]
Personal life
Chopra married Candice Chen c. 1993; the couple have a son.[45][46][47][48][1] As of 2022, Chopra is based in Los Angeles.[1]

THE Pope wasn't the only spiritual celebrity besieged by teen-age fans during his visit to St. Louis in January.
''I was mobbed,'' said Gotham Chopra, who was there covering the papal pilgrimage for Channel One, the television news service that broadcasts to schools around the country. ''They knew who I was. It was weird.''
Not all that weird, considering that Mr. Chopra's father is Dr. Deepak Chopra, the best-selling mind-body guru whose religion of self-help and Eastern medicine has made him a Buddha of suburbia and New Age Hollywood. And not weird at all considering that Gotham Chopra, 24, has a captive teen-age audience -- eight million viewers in 12,000 schools -- whose inchoate spiritual yearnings can range from the church of their choosing to the latest Alanis Morissette CD.
''A lot of the kids I saw with the Pope weren't even Catholics,'' Mr. Chopra said in a recent interview in Los Angeles. ''But they wanted to be plugged into something. They said, 'This guy is our closest connection to God, and we just want to be around him.' ''
ADVERTISEMENT
Some young seekers might have said much the same about Mr. Chopra, who seems to be plugging in to their need for a sort of ''Deepak 2'' for Generation Y.
Like his ubiquitous father, the younger Chopra keeps a hand in many pots. He is story editor of a new monthly comic book, ''Bulletproof Monk,'' about a kung fu-fighting Buddhist, the first issue of which came out last month. He performed a reading on ''The Gift of Love,'' an album released in December devoted to the poetry of the 13th-century Persian mystic Rumi, alongside Madonna, Demi Moore and his father.
As a reporter and anchor for Channel One's network-style newscasts, Mr. Chopra covers headline news and breaking stories for his young audience. But he also does features with a spiritual and mythical spin. He presented John Glenn as a latter-day Icarus. For the Super Bowl, he took a crew to the site of ancient Mayan handball courts in Mexico and traced a history of ''the warrior impulse.''
Gerard Matthews, an 18-year-old senior at Genoa Central High School in Genoa, Ark., is a fan of what he calls Mr. Chopra's insightful reporting. ''His pieces often take a different tone than the rest, maybe a more serious, mysterious tone,'' Mr. Matthews said. ''He's kind of intriguing.''
The source of intrigue is not Mr. Chopra's famous father, whom Mr. Matthews said he had never heard of until last week. As Scott Garen, executive producer of Channel One news, said: ''I don't think these kids know who Deepak is. And neither do a lot of middle Americans where we broadcast.''
ADVERTISEMENT
But Gotham Chopra, the soft-spoken scion of his father's wellness empire, seems to have inherited at least some of the job requirements of a mini guru: ambition packaged with a blissed-out aura, prolific energy (he's currently at work on three screenplays and a second novel) and a knack for making famous friends.
He and Michael Jackson are sufficiently tight that the notoriously inaccessible pop star got on the phone to comment on the young Chopra.
''I knew when I first met Gotham that he was a spiritual godsend capable of inspiring and empowering the youth of this generation,'' Mr. Jackson said in his thin, high voice. ''He's a gift to the world.''
Gotham Chopra was 15 when his father first took him to Mr. Jackson's Neverland ranch, where he became one of the many kids who hung out with Mr. Jackson and, on occasion, slept in the same bed.
''We would play video games,'' Mr. Chopra said. ''We'd order pizza. We'd eat candy, and we'd just act nuts until 5 in the morning, and you'd fall asleep on the floor or the bed, whatever.''
It would later be charged in a lawsuit, eventually settled out of court, that a member of this young entourage was sexually abused by Mr. Jackson. But Mr. Chopra said he didn't witness any sexually inappropriate activity. ''I never ever saw anything, felt awkward or anything,'' he said.
ADVERTISEMENT
Gautama, meaning the enlightened one, is the Hindi spelling of Mr. Chopra's name. But he has adopted the Americanized spelling Gotham, which with its cool New York and Batman associations fits his image as a younger, hipper version of his dad, a kid who quotes Puff Daddy more quickly than Vedic theology.
''I don't identify as a Hindu,'' he said. Nor does he consider himself New Age. His first novel, ''Child of the Dawn,'' was published by the same New Age press, Amber-Allen, that issued the Deepak Chopra best seller, ''The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success.'' Mr. Chopra cringes at the memory of his callow parable about an Indian orphan's search for wisdom. ''I'll be the first to admit: with the first one, we were capitalizing on my father's name,'' he said.
''What I call spirituality for the next generation is full of the sacred, but it's also got lots of the profane,'' he said, sipping a soda at the poolside restaurant of the Sunset Marquis Hotel, not far from his Beverly Hills apartment. His comic book's superhero, the Bulletproof Monk, is a 20-year-old Hong Kong exile in San Francisco whose path to inner peace is strewn with casualties of his martial artistry. ''It's first and foremost action-adventure, but it has this really cool element of self-discovery as well,'' he added.
A relative newcomer to Los Angeles, Mr. Chopra has clearly assimilated fast. On this unseasonably brisk winter day, he was attired and accessorized in the casual-chic accouterments of the young Hollywood comer: spotless white T-shirt under a loose gray jacket, cargos, silver bracelet, Tag Heuer watch, with a Nokia phone resting on the table in front of him. His manner was so laid back, he seemed to have just emerged from -- or ready to sink into -- a serious nap.
Peter Guber, the movie producer, has known Deepak and Gotham Chopra for several years. ''He has a very endearing style,'' Mr. Guber said of the younger Chopra. ''He's ambitious and aggressive, but he has a welcoming attitude, rather than a competitive one, which is a result of his father's training or impulse.''
It's an effective dichotomy: Mr. Chopra is self-effacingly self-promotional, nonaggressively aggressive. He has been meditating since he was a child, and yet has been fanatical about sports for just as long.

During the N.F.L. playoffs last year, when the Chopra family was traveling in Morocco, he laid his New England Patriots jersey on his bed every night for good luck, said T. Trent Gegax, a reporter at Newsweek and family friend, who shared a room with the younger Chopra on the Morocco trip. Mr. Gegax said Mr. Chopra's sports obsessiveness sometimes extended to non-Zen expressions of frustration on the golf course. ''He'll throw clubs,'' Mr. Gegax said.
That can't be good for his karmic handicap.
Deepak Chopra said that his son was the more ''mature'' of the two of them. ''I'm still a very excitable person,'' Mr. Chopra said. ''Gotham is more sober, more centered and less attached to outcome than I am.'' If so, imagine Deepak on the back nine.
Growing up a Chopra cannot have been a completely normal experience for Gotham and his older sister, Mallika. They lived in Boston. When he was about 5, Mr. Chopra said, his father gave up ''smoking and drinking and doing all the stuff doctors who work in the E.R. do.'' He switched from Western to Eastern medicine and, around 1984, went on ''Oprah.'' That changed everything. Celebrities began seeking him out, and soon enough Dr. Chopra became one himself.
''There's obviously a certain shadow that it casts,'' the younger Mr. Chopra said, not only regarding his father's fame, but also his relentless productivity. Dr. Chopra has four books coming out this year, a documentary and two feature films in development and a single from the ''Gift of Love'' album ranked 32 on Billboard's Hot Dance Music chart. ''He literally will have a revelation and write a book about it over a weekend,'' Mr. Chopra said.
Mr. Gegax, whose family has gone on several vacations with the Chopras, said Mr. Chopra managed to keep his patrimony in perspective. ''When his father starts spinning off on some tangent,'' Mr. Gegax said, ''Gotham would look at me and kind of roll his eyes, like, 'There he goes again.' ''

A NIGHT OUT WITH: VIKRAM CHATWAL

VIKRAM CHATWAL is one of those people who uses the word ''slash'' suspiciously often when he describes what he does for a living.
''I guess you could say I'm a model slash hotelier slash actor slash screenwriter,'' the 27-year-old Sikh impresario said on a recent March evening at the Staley-Wise Gallery in SoHo, his white turban bobbing above the chain-smoking crowd. Mr. Chatwal had stopped in for a show of photographs by Ellen von Unwerth, who shot him for a Vogue fashion spread in 1997 -- that explains the model part of his self-description.
Mr. Chatwal emigrated from India to Canada in 1984, and moved to New York a decade ago. Because he is a Sikh, he usually wears a pristine white turban. (Sometimes he takes it off when he dances, he said.) Mr. Chatwal comes across as a 1999 poster boy of multicultural chic: a spiritually conversant playboy with a penchant for rap music and friends gathered from the worlds of banking, music and just plain money.
After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania, Mr. Chatwal worked at Morgan Stanley. ''Then I left to pursue some more cultural journeys,'' said Mr. Chatwal, who is becoming something of an Indian Ian Schrager. He is already a part owner of Joe's Pub, the downtown boite of the moment; in May, Hampshire Hotels, a chain run by Mr. Chatwal's family, will open the Time, a hotel on West 49th Street, where Mr. Chatwal will be the manager.
ADVERTISEMENT
''It's going to be an upscale boutique kind of hotel,'' he said, his voice as soporific as warm buttermilk.
A gallery assistant flashed the lights as a signal to disperse. Mr. Chatwal rounded up friends for dinner: Gotham Chopra, the son of Deepak Chopra; Daniella Rich, the daughter of the social songwriter Denise Rich; a globe-trotting English lawyer named Richard, and Sky Nellor, a slim brunette who described herself as ''a deejay slash television hostess slash model.''
The group piled into Mr. Chatwal's white Mercedes 500S sedan, a car more suitable for a Palm Beach housewife. Mr. Chatwal says he likes it ''because it's a moving living room.'' He turned on Big E. Smalls (''Uh-uh/Money, I'm gonna front you/Uh-uh/Girl, I'm gonna flaunt you'') and drove to Bamboo, a restaurant on West 14th Street.
''What's an Arawak steak?'' Ms. Rich asked as she perused the menu.
''The Arawak are one of two indigenous Indian tribes in the Caribbean,'' the lawyer replied, without moving his eyes from his menu.
As plates of steak and steamed mussels and jerk chicken, fried plantains and crab cakes arrived, the conversation turned to organized crime. Mr. Chopra and Mr. Chatwal are writing a screenplay together, which Mr. Chatwal described as ''the Indian 'Scarface.' '' A guest posed this question: Does crime pay?
ADVERTISEMENT
''No,'' Mr. Chatwal said, turning solemn. ''There is nothing you can do to assuage your conscience when you commit sins. Crime is a spiritual assault on the soul.''
Mr. Chatwal said his movie was ''really about the pressures on immigrant families to achieve the American dream.'' He started talking about how difficult it was to be a, well, Sikh slash American.
Mr. Chatwal said he was not a religious Sikh. ''I'm more of a cultural one. As a Sikh, you're not allowed to cut your hair, drink, smoke or have premarital sex.'' Despite his parents' expectations, he said he would not submit to an arranged marriage. ''I'll be marrying for love, like we all should be,'' he added. Slash romantic?

By Daily Bruin Staff
Oct. 7, 2001 9:00 p.m.
Shortly after the United States bombed Sudan in 1998 in response to attacks on U.S. embassies in Africa, Matthew Rothschild, editor of The Progressive magazine, wrote, “The U.S. strikes may have some unfortunate consequences. They may incite retaliation:It’s quite conceivable that they will inspire more terrorism
against the United States and American citizens. Today the Clinton
administration is warning U.S. citizens to take extra precautions,
and airports across the country are girding
themselves.”
Rothschild’s statement in 1998 eerily foreshadowed the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Similar to recent events, the bombing of Sudan was driven by a desire to retaliate quickly and powerfully. And just like today, the prime suspect then was Osama bin Laden. Yet because of rash decision-making, the target of the 1998 attacks was not a factory manufacturing chemical weapons or housing bin Laden, but a pharmaceutical factory that provided food to victims of famine.
Given the unnecessary violence the United States caused in the past, we have an obligation to learn from history. Unfortunately, the recent attacks on Afghanistan threaten merely to repeat it.
Not only do we run the serious risk of killing innocent people, bombing will also strengthen the popularity of Osama bin Laden and his terrorist forces. By attacking, we will play right into his game of terror, a game where his power to turn people into deadly pawns is dependent upon U.S. violence.
Not only will U.S. bombs increase danger for people in
Afghanistan, but it will also increase danger here. The government
can put as much money as it wants into security, but all you need
is one crazy person with a strong sense of purpose and a bomb and
people will die.
The attacks will also do more damage to the people in
Afghanistan, many of whom lack sufficient health care, education,
food and housing. Such desperate conditions help drive people to
desperate measures.
As Gotham Chopra of Channel One pointed out during his visit to Pakistan, starving and desperate children go to Madrasas, schools where bin Laden recruits future terrorists, because they can receive three meals a day. In fact, there are children in
Afghanistan who, while they cannot tell you the answer to “1
+ 1,” can show you how to fire a gun. By ignoring the
impoverished conditions and simply resorting to attacks, we are
turning a blind eye to the real suffering that leads to larger
forms of violence.
And while government officials claim to provide humanitarian
aid, dropping bombs while dropping food on impoverished people
simply makes no sense.
We must look to other alternatives if we wish to truly weed out
the roots of terrorism. But first we need to differentiate between
the Taliban and Osama bin Laden. While the Taliban is a cruel
government, it is no more oppressive than our allied government in
Saudi Arabia. We must not forget that until recently, we worked
with the Taliban and last May even provided them with $43 million
in aid for helping the U.S. in the drug war.
Clearly, we haven’t nearly exhausted our diplomatic
relations and we have worked with this “evil”
government before. Now we must explore options such as those
suggested by UCLA professor John Agnew. In an interview with the
Daily Bruin, he stated that an economic relief package to the
Taliban for education, housing, and infrastructure may be more
effective in getting them to surrender bin Laden.
The $15 million he suggests may seem pricey, but it can not
compare to the lives, money and safety that will be lost with this
war on terrorism. Also, because the world is becoming smaller with
globalization, we must begin to look to strengthening the
International Criminal Court. We need to bring criminals to justice
through international law, not international vigilantism.
We can continue to stomp around and “kick ass” to
make ourselves feel good in this time of American insecurity, but
until we start learning from history and looking at the roots of
terrorism, our bombs will only continue to sow the seeds of
hate.
