He is a co-founder of Religion of Sports, Liquid Comics, Chopra Media, and the Chopra Well.
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.
He is a first-generation American and the first in his family to be born outside of India.
He and his sister Mallika were raised in the Boston suburb of Lincoln.
As a child, Chopra was extremely interested in sports, enough that his mother worried that he would never have a career.
He is a lifelong Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins fan.
His favorite athlete while growing up was Larry Bird.
At age 13, he went on tour "as a roadie" with Michael Jackson, a friend of his father's, on his Dangerous World Tour.
Chopra's father was busy and rarely home during the first years of Chopra's childhood.
He recalls that his father drank and smoked a lot until he joined the Transcendental Meditation (TM) movement when Chopra was five.
The family as a whole started practicing TM.
Chopra graduated from Belmont Hill School in 1993, then Columbia University with a bachelor's degree in English and Literature.
In 1993, while Chopra was in college, the family relocated to California.
While at Columbia, he wrote his first book, Child of the Dawn, and helped Michael Jackson write lyrics to his songs.
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.
He found out later that he was hired because one of the Channel One executives was a fan of his fathers'.
He became a war correspondent and was stationed internationally.
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.
In 2000, he co-founded Chopra Media with his sister Mallika.
This company primarily develops media initiatives for their father but also oversees television shows and films.
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.
Other interviews he conducted during this time were with George W. Bush, John Glenn, and the Dalai Lama.
Chopra also produced the 2003 film based on the series.
He left Channel One in 2005.
Between 2006 and 2008, he worked as a consultant for Current TV.
In 2006, he, Sharad Devarajan, and Suresh Seetharaman co-founded Virgin Comics and convinced Sir Richard Branson to invest.
In 2008, the company changed its name to Liquid Comics following management changes.
Chopra co-created the Bulletproof Monk comics with Brett Lewis and R. A. Jones.
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.
In 2012, Chopra launched the YouTube channel The Chopra Well along with his father and sister.
This channel features a number of healthy and spiritual living tips, guided meditations, and guest interviews.
Peter Chernin joined the team as an investor in 2013 and is a joint owner of Graphic India.
Chopra helped create a virtual reality meditation video game, called Finding Your True Self, with his father in 2016.
