Murdoch lands in Mumbai
Rupert Murdoch landed in his
private jet at Mumbai's Sahar International Airport with
his entourage a short while back. Special arrangements were
made at the airport for him. A Mercedes Benz drove right
onto the tarmac next to his aircraft. News Corp No 2 Chase
Carey, Star TV India CEO Peter Mukerjea, and metal baron
Pramod Mittal accompanied him as they boarded the car to
keep him away from the hordes of photographers and journalists
who had parked themselves in front of the airport to get
a few words out of him.
With the kind of media attention that he has been getting
the current Indian celebrities may surely be developing
a complex.
The dapper media baron
who has been looking younger ever since his marriage to
Wendy Deng and his renewed zest for the WWW and convergence
has a whistlestop tour of the city planned out for him.
This includes meetings with local politicians, leading business
lights, his former partner Subhash Chandra, and also the
staff within Star TV's India operations. Currently, he is
in the Star TV office finding his bearings before getting
into a hectic round of meetings with the senior executives
of Star TV.
The entire Star TV office in Mumbai has been witnessing
a bedlam of activity in preparation of his arrival.
Keep logging for further developments relating to Mr Murdoch.
