Ananta Das exits as head – brand PR for Prime Video India & APAC
Seasoned comms leader with nearly 20 years’ experience leaves after leading regional brand strategy.
MUMBAI: Ananta Das just hit the eject button on her Prime Video role because when you’ve scripted brand stories across continents, sometimes you need a scene change of your own. Ananta Das has stepped down from her position as head of brand PR for Prime Video India & APAC, marking a significant leadership transition in the streamer’s regional communications setup. Her replacement will be hired into a broader regional brand communications role reporting directly to APAC communications head Menon, indicating a restructuring of the hierarchy.
With nearly two decades in communications, Das brings a strong track record across major organisations. Before Prime Video, she handled brand and corporate mandates at Johnson & Johnson, Tata Global Beverages, and Colgate-Palmolive. At Prime Video she drove brand communications strategy across APAC markets, steering messaging for the platform’s expanding slate of originals, major content launches, and key industry initiatives.
The exit comes as Prime Video continues to scale its originals and regional presence in a competitive streaming landscape. Das’s departure opens the door for fresh leadership to shape the next phase of brand storytelling in one of the world’s fastest-growing entertainment markets.
For a region where content is king and attention is currency, transitions like this aren’t endings, they’re plot twists that keep the narrative moving forward.
