Nikita Kandhari expands role at Prime Video India
Senior leader now heads content marketing for hindi slate while retaining principal position.
MUMBAI: Nikita Kandhari just levelled up her Prime Video game because when you’re already scripting hits, the next move is to own the whole Hindi storyline. Nikita Kandhari has taken on an expanded leadership role at Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios, now heading content marketing for the Hindi slate covering original series, movies, and licensed titles while continuing as principal for content marketing.
Announcing the move on LinkedIn, Kandhari wrote, “I’m excited to share that I’m stepping into an expanded role, leading content marketing for the Hindi slate… The past year has been an intense period of learning across building new IPs, shaping campaigns, and working more closely than ever with cross-functional teams. I’m grateful for the trust, mentorship, and collaboration that made that growth possible.”
In her broader mandate, Kandhari will shape integrated, audience-first marketing strategies for Prime Video’s growing Hindi content portfolio, aiming to deepen engagement with India’s booming streaming viewers through thoughtful, culturally attuned campaigns.
Kandhari brings nearly two decades of experience across media, FMCG, and advertising. Before Amazon, she held key roles at Netflix, Hotstar, Unilever, Ogilvy & Mather, and began her career in 2008 as a Research Analyst at The Nielsen Company. She holds an MBA in Marketing and Strategy/Leadership from the Indian School of Business.
Her expanded remit arrives as Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios continue to scale their Hindi originals and licensed offerings in one of the world’s most competitive and fast-growing streaming markets. For a platform betting big on regional storytelling, placing someone with Kandhari’s blend of strategic depth, creative campaign experience, and cross-industry insight at the helm feels like the perfect plot twist to keep viewers hooked.

TCS proposes Rs 31 dividend as Q4 results reflect steady profit growth
Tech giant recommends final payout following a year of steady growth and expansion
MUMBAI: Tata Consultancy Services Limited has signalled its confidence in the digital future by recommending a final dividend of Rs 31 per share. The payout, which remains subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming annual general meeting, caps off a year of significant activity for the global IT services leader.
The company reported a consolidated revenue from operations of Rs 267,021 crore for the year ended 31 March 2026, representing a steady increase from the Rs 255,324 crore recorded in the previous financial year. Net profit for the period also saw an uptick, reaching Rs 49,454 crore compared to Rs 48,797 crore twelve months prior.
Growth was visible across several key sectors, with banking, financial services, and insurance remaining the company’s largest revenue generator, contributing Rs 103,363 crore to the annual total. Despite the positive trajectory, the firm navigated some financial headwinds, including a one-off provision of Rs 1,010 crore related to a legal claim and Rs 1,388 crore in restructuring expenses.
The year was also defined by a flurry of international expansion. The group successfully integrated several new entities, including the acquisition of Coastal Cloud Holdings, LLC in January 2026 and the incorporation of new subsidiaries in Morocco and Saudi Arabia.
With its global footprint expanding and a healthy dividend on the horizon, the firm appears well-positioned to maintain its momentum in the competitive tech landscape.
