Cannes Lions 2017: India sets eyes on a record tally

With two more days to go and winners for seven categories yet to be announced, India is all set for a record win at the 2017 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. Currently, the Indian tally stands at 32 Lions including a Grand Prix for Good and it is expected to cross the highest tally in the last seven years as Indian agencies have 16 shortlists in four categories – Film, Film Craft, Radio and Creative Effectiveness. The Titanium and Integrated Lions shortlists will be made live today. India had brought maximum 34 Lions home in 2013.

While Indian agencies have taken a comfortable lead over last year’s metal tally of 27, the previous year was the worst for the country in the last seven years with only 13 Lions.
