Thought Bubbles expands portfolio with Bubble TV
MUMBAI: Thought Bubbles Advertising has launched its new video content creation arm Bubble TV. The new arm has begun operations with work on Ganeshotsav in the form of a festive promo for Zee Talkies.
To be headed by founder and chief creative Manoj Motiani, the outfit will create videos with message plug-ins woven around fun, humour, ideas, emotions, opinions, spoofs, even social messages.
The agency will be based out of Mumbai and currently has a team of four professional across design, craft and film-making functions.
“Bubble TV is an acknowledgement of the dramatic rise of mobile, web and social networks towards brand awareness, consideration, purchases, and loyalty. With the kind of reach, innovation, experimentation, and cultural influence, they are no longer are a support medium, they are THE medium. Again this calls for new fresh content for consumer engagement and talking to them in a way they like to be spoken to,” said Motiani who has worked with agencies like Euro RSCG (now Havas Worldwide), O&M and iB&W.
The central idea is to have brands use entertaining ways of on-screen consumer engagement on smart phones, tablets, social networks and other digital media.
Bubble TV is an open format idea which will develop as it goes along. The focus will be on providing interesting content to electronic channels / networks.
“We may also launch our own digital TV soon, or create brand messaging which is free from the rigidity of brand manuals to be more democratic with colloquial ways of brand connect,” adds Motiani.
Started in 2009, Thought Bubbles has worked for several clients like Donear Suitings, RR Kabel wires, Gadgetsguru.com, Franklin Templeton, Hex City builders, RIOT clothing, Indian Health Organisation, Jawed Habib Salon Singapore.

Manindra Mohan joins CoinDCX as SVP & head – data & analytics
Former Amazon and Unacademy analytics leader to scale crypto insights
MUMBAI: India’s crypto exchange CoinDCX has appointed Manindra Mohan as SVP and head of data and analytics, bringing on board a seasoned data strategist at a time when the country’s digital asset market is entering a decisive phase.
In his new role, he will steer enterprise-wide data science, analytics and business intelligence initiatives. His mandate spans product, growth, risk and customer experience, with a clear brief to embed data-led decision-making into the company’s core as it scales across India and beyond.
Announcing the move, Mohan said he was “thrilled” to join CoinDCX, calling the Indian crypto market pivotal and ripe with opportunity. He thanked co-founders Sumit Gupta and Neeraj Khandelwal, along with Mridul Gupta, for the opportunity to help shape what he described as the future of finance.
He noted that architecting data solutions for a 24 hour global asset class presents a formidable challenge. Yet, he added, the chance to redefine financial access and drive crypto adoption “across every pin code in India” makes the task compelling.
Mohan arrives with nearly two decades of experience across technology, media and digital platforms. Before CoinDCX, he served as head of data science, analytics and BI at Carousell Group. Prior to that, he was SVP and head of analytics at Unacademy, where he built and scaled the analytics and insights function supporting product, sales, marketing and finance teams.
His earlier stints include heading analytics for Amazon prime video in India, where he oversaw data across product, acquisition, engagement and content, as well as serving as senior manager data sciences and advanced analytics at VMware and senior manager marketing and digital analytics at Dell Technologies. He began his career as senior business analyst at Cognizant, working on large scale crm and analytics implementations for global clients.
Colleagues describe Mohan as a builder of teams as much as models. From managing global analytics rollouts to leading large cross functional units, he has consistently combined statistical rigour with commercial instinct.
At CoinDCX, that blend could prove timely. As crypto exchanges navigate regulation, volatility and rising user expectations, data is no longer a back office function. It is the compass. With Mohan at the helm of analytics, CoinDCX is betting that sharper insights will translate into deeper trust and broader adoption in a market that never sleeps.
