Havmor joins forces with Krrish 3
NEW DELHI: With the Superhero franchise Krrish 3 set to release this Diwali, Havmor Ice Creams have associated with the film.
Havmor Ice Creams MD Ankit Chona feels the association is apt, as the target audience of the brand and Krrish 3 form a perfect synergy.
This partnership adds another element of ‘Funn’ to the brand while providing additional value to the consumers with the release of custom-packaged Krrish 3 Range of Ice Creams: Choco Block In Cone, Blockbuster Choco Strawberry Stick and Red Velvett ice cream cake.
He adds: “Our consumers and franchisees are sure to be swept up in the excitement the blockbuster franchise is generating. We intend to amplify this association across more than 20,000 touch points. It will be an instant connect to the kids and youth, and be a part of their world. This unique association will present to our consumers a range of exciting products, which is customised and inspired by their superhero.”
In anticipation of the blockbuster release, the brand is launching a 360 degree campaign to celebrate the association of Havmor and Krrish 3.
Producer and director Rakesh Roshan said: “It is a pleasure to be associated with Havmor, as it reflects the same philosophy of the Krrish character, which connects so well with kids and family. And since it connects so well, both have derived value from this association.”
Hrithik Roshan adds, “We are pleased to be associated with Havmor Ice creams, as it shares a great synergy with our core audience. Also, now all my fans can enjoy the special Krrish 3 range of ice creams introduced by Havmor.”
Go Fish which holds its connotation and carries a forte for getting various brands a recognition and a build up in a spectacular manner by allying products with the films has been instrumental in getting Havmor Ice Cream to associate with Krrish 3.
Go Fish Entertainment director Sajay Moolankandan said: “Krrish 3 is Bollywood’s most iconic superhero and connects with kids and families instantly. With such a brilliant film, fantastic integration which is a part of the narrative and similar core audience, it was just the perfect opportunity that we were looking out for Havmor. We have planned a 360 degree campaign to amplify this association as well as a special range of Krrish 3 ice creams.”

Hiili names Sanjay Hemady as country manager India
Media veteran to drive digital decarbonisation push
MUMBAI: Climate tech firm Hiili has announced its entry into India, appointing industry veteran Sanjay Hemady as India country manager to steer its growth in one of the world’s fastest-expanding digital markets.
Hemady, a familiar name across India’s media and consulting circles, will lead Hiili’s India operations from Mumbai. His mandate is clear: help Indian companies measure, manage and reduce the carbon emissions generated by their digital services.
Hiili offers a scientifically validated platform, certified by the UC3M-Santander Big Data Institute, that enables businesses to improve the efficiency of their digital infrastructure while cutting emissions. As organisations race to meet ESG targets, the company positions itself as a practical bridge between climate pledges and measurable action.
“I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as country manager, India at Hiili,” Hemady said in a LinkedIn post, adding that the company aims to move beyond broad sustainability promises towards precise, science-based decarbonisation.
Hemady brings more than three decades of experience spanning print, television, radio and digital media. He has previously served as chief executive officer at HIT 95 FM, assistant general manager at CNBC TV18, and held leadership roles at MTV India and The Indian Express, among others. Most recently, he worked as an independent business consultant advising firms across media and technology.
With India’s digital economy expanding at pace, the environmental cost of data, streaming and online services is climbing quietly in the background. Hiili’s bet is that carbon efficiency will soon sit alongside cost efficiency in boardroom conversations.
For Hemady, the move marks a shift from selling airtime and ad inventory to championing climate accountability. If successful, Hiili’s India play could make digital growth not just faster, but cleaner too.
