Aditya believed in our vision & his support will empower us to reach new heights and continue our mission to build the biggest India-centric pop culture brand. I also feel that with the current positive sentiment and a growing sense of pride in national identity, A47 stands at the forefront of fostering love for India's own.”

The contagious passion of the A47 team resonates deeply with my own, as we collaborate to create experiences celebrating India's heritage, fostering pride and connecting with our audience. I am sure we are on the path of building something amazing."
