Navina Sundaram was born into a prominent Hungarian-Indian family of artists. Her grandfather Umrao Singh Sher-Gil (1870-1954) was a philosopher, artist and photographer from Punjab. Her aunt Amrita Sher-Gil (1913-1941), an eminent painter, is regarded as a pioneer of Indian modernism. Navina Sundaram's brother Vivan Sundaram (1943-2023) was one of India's most important contemporary visual artists. The siblings’ grew up in an intellectual and cosmopolitan environment, their upbringing influenced by the young Republic of India under Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru (1889-1964), a secular, parliamentary democracy, which, among other things, gave significant impetus to the Alliance of Non-Aligned Countries.
Navina Sundaram first appeared on German television thanks to a family friend, Hans Walter Berg (1916-2003), who was then a correspondent and the head of ARD television studio in New Delhi. At Berg's request, she became the presenter of the series Asiatische Miniaturen (Asian Miniatures), which was produced in India from 1963. Not being able to speak a word of German at the time, she learnt the texts by heart and recited them for television. She was then invited to attend a two-year training course for television journalists at NDR in Hamburg. From June 1964, she worked as a trainee in various departments of the broadcaster, from the Tagesschau newsroom to the television drama department under the direction of Egon Monk and the NDR radio's Nachwuchsstudio[8](young talent studio) under Axel Eggebrecht.[9]
In 1966, she returned to the television studio in New Delhi as assistant director for almost two years. From 1970 to 2004, Navina Sundaram was a permanent editor at NDR, first in the current affairs department and later as a foreign correspondent. She then worked as a freelance journalist.[4]
Writing in the German daily Taz, she described how in the 1970s and 1980s women on the talk show Der Internationale Frühschoppen were merely exotic figures in the men's club . She and Pakistani journalist Roshan Dhunjibhoy took turns representing the "other world". Much to the disappointment of host Werner Höfers, she always chose to appear in European clothes.[10]
There are two thematic strands that run through the entire body of Navina Sundaram's work. On the one hand, she has repeatedly focused on the countries of the Global South, especially on South Asia and Africa, the struggles for independence, the complex processes of decolonisation, but also the impact of international development aid, the monetary policies of the IMF and the World Bank, and environmental issues. On the other hand, within the domestic political discourse in Germany, Sundaram was interested in the situation of people who had experienced migration, asylum seekers and those affected by everyday racism. She also addressed contemporary political demands for equality and the recognition of human rights.
