Professional
Experience
Total six years - I've been working with Sony
Entertainment Television since the last three
years. Prior to that I was with Hindustan
Thompson Associates , Mumbai for three years.
Job
Profile
Responsible
for driving viewership for a portfolio of
programmes and driving advertiser initiatives
(contests, fillers, value-adds) on the channel.
Television
as career choice
I believe television is a highly dynamic industry,
and poised for explosive growth in the future.
I don't think any other industry offers as
challenging opportunities as television today.
Current
Television
scenario: A
lot will depend on how the roll-out of CAS
happens. Like in any industry, only two-three
major general entertainment players will survive.
The others shall have to look for niches.
Even niche channels that provide cutting edge
content in their area of specialization will
thrive - provided that niche is desirable
from an advertiser's point of view.
Right
and wrong about current television
scenario
The industry is still evolving, and it is
a great time for a newcomer to step in. The
evolution is truly a professional one, and
that may take time. The good thing is that
there are people in it who can make it happen.
Five
years from now
I believe in living for the present. Not to
dream too much.
