As we step into our next decade, this consolidation of our media duties under one agency will allow us to effectively influence economies of scale for the entire network, thereby uniting the diversified brands under one umbrella.

Commenting on the win, Vikram Sakhuja, Group CEO, Media and OOH, Madison, said, “It is particularly exciting to be chosen as Viacom18’s consolidated media AOR at a point in time when it has successfully celebrated its first decade and is poised to develop segmented offerings for 130 crore Indians. Viacom18 is the country’s foremost storyteller with leading brands in almost every broadcast genre it operates in. Add to that the allied businesses the network has invested in –merchandising and live events – and for an agency nothing can be headier and more dynamic than be a partner in the marketing of such varied content.”
