He has written stories from other conflict areas, like [[State of Palestine|Palestine]] and [[Kashmir]]. He has also worked for ''Time Asia'' and ''Time Europe'' and has covered subjects as varied as technology and football (like his very famous article about [[Lionel Messi]]), business and social trends. He started his career as journalist with ''[[Deccan Chronicle]]'', a popular English daily, at Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, India. His Baghdad journalism has included profiles of [[Suicide attack|suicide bombers]] and other terrorists, stories about extraordinary Iraqis and also political figures.

Author of provocative ''Time'' magazine article related to the cover "Is America Islamophobic?" mildly titled "Does America Have a Muslim Problem?" when US attention to the building of a mosque near Ground Zero led the news.

He has postulated that to a believing Muslim, the perception may be that "burning the [[Koran]] is much worse than burning the [[Bible]], because the Koran is directly from [[God]], while the Bible isn't."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://gatewaypundit.rightnetwork.com/2011/04/time-mag-editor-burning-the-koran-is-worse-than-burning-bible-video/ |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2011-04-04 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110407085128/http://gatewaypundit.rightnetwork.com/2011/04/time-mag-editor-burning-the-koran-is-worse-than-burning-bible-video/ |archivedate=2011-04-07 }}</ref>
