MUMBAI: Abhishek Razdan, who till recently was the senior vice president and Mumbai business head, has now been promoted to executive vice president and national business head of Jack in the Box Worldwide, the digital agency brand of The 120 Media Collective, with immediate effect.
In his new role, Razdan will oversee both, Mumbai and Delhi operations, as well as client relationships in Bangalore. He will have overall responsibility for driving business growth and profitability as well as for strategic evolution. Vice president & business head – Delhi Mairu Gupta, will continue to run Delhi operations, reporting to Razdan.
Razdan joined Jack in the Box Worldwide as head of business management in July 2012 and was promoted in 2013 to business head for Jack in the Box Mumbai after helping restructure and give focus and depth to the agency. He went on to demonstrate deft account management skills and business acumen and was a crucial part of big account wins including Pond’s Men, Vaseline, BeBEAUTIFUL and Nivea, helping create effective and award winning work and building successful client relationships on a consistent basis. Razdan also championed the development of the Louis Philippe relationship, growing it into one of the agency’s most strategically robust, creatively exciting and award-yielding and financially rewarding clients.
“Over the past 24 months, we have evolved into perhaps India’s most strategically rooted agency in the digital space. The combination of skills and resources we offer our clients is truly unique and it allows us to deliver a longer-term approach that has real business impact. Having won several large new businesses over the past year, and being well on our way along our strategic roadmap, it became imperative to have singular leadership for the Jack in the Box brand and in the case of Abhishek, it wasn’t an “if” but a “when”. We have a fairly detailed roadmap outlined for the next 36 months and giving Abhishek more responsibility is a major measure to ensure we achieve our goals”, said The 120 Media Collective founder & chief executive officer Roopak Saluja.
Commenting on the promotion, Razdan said, “I am very excited to take on the new role. The strategy has been to be true Business Partners to our clients by giving them solutions that make tangible differences to their businesses. We have never limited ourselves to just solving communication problems or doing the expected. With a multi-skilled and a highly motivated team behind me, I am pretty confident that our leadership position in Content and Digital Communications will get further cemented in times to come.”
“Abhishek has helped take Jack in the Box Worldwide to new and exciting heights in the past couple of years. His promotion is well deserved and marks exciting times for the company in the immediate and long term future,” added The 120 Media Collective chief talent officer Heather Saville Gupta.
Armed with a Masters in Communications Management from Symbiosis, Pune, Razdan has around 13 years of experience in the communication industry. Prior to joining Jack in the Box Worldwide, he was at BBH, Publicis Ambience, Contract, Ogilvy and Hanmer MS&L, having closely worked with leading brands like Vaseline, Citibank, Shoppers Stop, Diageo, Cadbury’s, to name a few.
Founded in 2006, Jack in the Box Worldwide, in its sixth year, has grown not only in sheer employee strength across both Mumbai and Delhi offices, but has also evolved in terms of its core strategic and creative competency and a stable of leading global brands from across sectors.
The agency is currently in the process of rolling out its new positioning and identity to reflect its evolution from creative social media and digital agency to a strategic, integrated digital communications brand. This is reflected in its recently redesigned website and a new logo that is a crisp, minimalist rendition of its comical clown mascot named Jack. The new identity echoes an evolved, more contemporary and strategic approach towards brand building through the lens of content across multiple platforms and geographies.

Filmcity Media CFO Mohit Jain quits; CEO Kirti Vishnu Tiwari takes charge of finance
Board appoints Prabhat Modi as additional director and approves Rs 1.9 crore preferential share issue
MUMBAI: Filmcity Media has reshuffled its top deck. Chief financial officer Mohit Jain has stepped down, prompting the board to hand the finance reins to chief executive Kirti Vishnu Tiwari even as the company lines up fresh capital and new boardroom muscle.
In a regulatory filing to the BSE, Filmcity Media said Jain resigned from the roles of director and chief financial officer with effect from March 11, 2026, to pursue another career opportunity. He ceased to be a key managerial personnel of the company at the close of business on that date.
The board swiftly moved to plug the gap, appointing Kirti Vishnu Tiwari as chief financial officer from March 12, 2026. Tiwari, who already serves as executive director and chief executive, will now hold the combined role of executive director, CEO and CFO, taking charge of the company’s finance function while continuing to lead operations.
The leadership changes were approved by the board following recommendations from the nomination and remuneration committee, with the audit committee also backing Tiwari’s appointment as CFO to ensure governance oversight. Under the arrangement, Tiwari will continue as a key managerial personnel under Section 203 of the Companies Act, 2013.
Filmcity Media also expanded its board, appointing Prabhat Modi as additional director with effect from March 13, 2026, for a term of five years. The appointment, categorised as a non-executive non-independent directorship, will require shareholder approval at the next general meeting.
Modi brings capital market experience to the role. He holds a B.Sc in accounting and finance from the University of Essex in the United Kingdom and a PGDM from the National Institute of Securities Market. His professional experience includes stints at SBI Mutual Fund, BSE India and Morningstar India, where he worked on market research, financial analysis and capital market operations.
Tiwari, meanwhile, brings experience spanning finance, marketing and hospitality. A graduate of Lucknow University, she has previously worked with Hotel Holiday Inn, Hotel Leela Kempenski and Hotel Sea Rock, along with roles at Pawan Hans Helicopter and CBRE South Asia.
Separately, the board also approved a preferential issue of equity shares to members of the promoter and promoter group as well as non-promoter investors. The proposed fundraising, subject to regulatory approvals, is expected to raise up to Rs 1.9 crore.
The company said both appointees meet all regulatory requirements under SEBI regulations and the Companies Act and are not barred by any regulatory authority from holding their positions.
With a new board face, a CEO doubling as CFO and fresh capital on the table, Filmcity Media appears to be tightening its leadership and balance sheet in one swift move.
