Trade clever for clear.

— A working principle

Most strategy is the discipline of noticing — what people actually do, not what they're supposed to.

— Selected work

Six things I've been part of.

Each story has more underneath it — the room, the brief, the bet, what worked and what didn't. Click any card to read the full case.

№ 01Integrated Marketing
01

Holding a fandom together during a crisis season.

When the franchise's hardest year needed a different anchor.

A captaincy change had fractured fan sentiment. We pivoted away from internal tensions and revived Mumbai Meri Jaan as the season's central platform across every channel.

A controlled leak that became the campaign.

When the show is about deception, the launch should behave like one.

A "leaked" JioHotstar deck seeded through PR, creators, piracy boards. Every click resolved into the same Kay Kay Menon film about digital manipulation. The medium became the message.

03

Building a league from day zero.

Teaching a country how to follow a sport.

India's first top-tier private volleyball league, built from inception. I owned strategy, KPIs, sponsor delivery, and the content workflows — the system that had to last three seasons and counting.

04

Positioning Superdry Sport for India.

For the everyday mover, not the elite athlete.

A fashion-led British brand entering activewear in a category owned by Nike, Adidas, Puma. The bet: position around movement across life — for an audience where fitness has become identity, not function.

Scaling Indian sport, quietly.

From the school field to the world stage.

Reliance Foundation Sports across grassroots and elite. Athletics, football, the Olympics, the Asian Games, RFYS. Lehra Do for Team India was the season's anthem.

Mumbai to Bengaluru, on the ground.

Authenticity, documented. Not the broadcast cut.

India's biggest mass-participation races — TMM and TCS World 10K Bengaluru. International athletes (Gatlin, Moon, Meb) integrated as peers of the local running community, not above it.

— The lens

How I tend to think.

I don't separate my interests from how I work. They tend to bleed into each other.

— Hover on a tile
Four lenses, one way of looking.
Astronomy, comedy, literature, sport & gaming. They each shape how I read briefs and read rooms.

01 / astronomy

Mapping constellations.

I usually start by zooming out. Understanding the space first, then connecting the dots.

02 / comedy

Timing matters.

The same punch can land or miss depending on context. Creativity, much like comedy, is often ruled by judgement.

03 / literature

Stories need a spine.

Structure lets imagination travel without falling apart. I'm drawn to stories that are clear on who they're about, what's in the way, and why the journey matters.

04 / sport & gaming

Systems reveal themselves over time.

Sport and gaming reward patience. Patterns don't appear instantly. They emerge through seasons, repetition, and adjustment.
