The Juggernaut is looking for pitches about the South Asian diaspora
The Juggernaut — the largest publication focused on the South Asian diaspora — is currently commissioning feature stories and open to pitches.
They’re especially interested in stories around business and technology, but they’re also actively considering pitches on history, culture, food, and entertainment. If you enjoy writing deeply reported features that explore identity, global trends, or cultural shifts, this could be a strong outlet.
One important thing: you don’t need to be South Asian to pitch them. What matters is curiosity, reporting depth, and a strong story idea tied to South Asian communities or influence around the world.
This is also one of those publications that works with international writers, which means freelancers from places like Kenya, Nigeria, India, the UK, or anywhere else can absolutely pitch if the idea is good.
Reported rates start at $250+ per article, depending on the scope of the piece.
If you’re pitching, think beyond obvious angles. Editors usually respond to ideas that bring something new, surprising, or underreported to the conversation.
A few directions that could work well:
How South Asian founders are influencing global tech
The cultural power of diaspora food businesses
Entertainment or media shaping diaspora identity
Business or cultural links between South Asia and Africa
