People: Krishna Mani appointed as Chief Creative Officer of BBDO Delhi

SINGAPORE — BBDO India has announced the appointment of Krishna Mani as CCO for their Delhi office. Krishna Mani has previously worked with Dentsu and Ogilvy.

Krishna comes to BBDO bringing with him a strong heritage of solid brand work. Throughout the 18 years that he worked at Ogilvy Delhi, he created distinctive work across many brands. From the very lovable and iconic Murthy for Voltas Ac to year on year creating refreshingly clever work for Sprite India, as well as mouthwatering work on KFC and Pizza Hut. In his brief stint at Dentsu he worked on brands such as TVS and Toyota creating culturally rich work for them. As a Creative leader, Krishna has nurtured and guided young teams to find their distinctive voice and grow. He believes learning and unlearning is crucial to remain forever young and relevant in advertising.

Talking about Mani’s appointment, Josy Paul, Chairman and CCO at BBDO India said, “It was love at first chat! It was instant creative chemistry! Sometimes you just know when you’ve found the right creative partner. Thrilled to have Krishna Mani lead the creative culture and product of BBDO in Delhi.
