Badri Narayan to head analytics at Mogae Media
MUMBAI: Badri Narayan has joined Mogae Media as its head of analytics.
Narayan will be based at Mogae‘s Delhi headquarters and will report to chief intelligence officer Pavan Chandra.
An IIT-ian from Mumbai, Natayan graduated from Mumbai University as a science student.
He has worked with companies like Adnova Technologies, Zenith Optimedia, DDB Mudra and a recent start-up, Corporate Storytellers. He has knowledge of process flow technologies, analytics and media buying. He has developed a range of analytics software for media planning, logistics as well as online retail firms. He is adept at handling various database technologies and also has an intuitive feel for the social media space.
Welcoming Narayan on board Chandra said, “Badri is very data-driven. He lives and breathes data cuts and data slices! He will add a lot of practical experience to our young team at Mogae Media.”
Narayan said, “Data for me is sacrosanct and churning rich information from it is my everyday mission. Most times the sheer volume of data can be quite intimidating. And I thrive on that challenge. We‘re talking about data sizes beyond terabytes at Airtel with whom Mogae works. And these data are constantly growing thanks to the ubiquitous information-sensing mobile devices. For me, Mogae is therefore the place to be.”

Navi releases new ‘Hurrypur’ film focused on speed and simplicity
Auto breakdown turns F1-style pit stop in campaign film set to Baalti’s track
MUMBAI: When life’s in the fast lane, Navi wants even your breakdowns to be over in a blink. Navi has rolled out a new film under its ongoing ‘Hurrypur’ campaign, doubling down on its core pitch speed and simplicity in everyday transactions.
The film opens on a familiar hiccup, an autorickshaw breaking down mid-ride. But what follows is anything but ordinary. The repair unfolds like a Formula 1 pit stop swift, precise, almost cinematic. Within seconds, the tyre is replaced, the vehicle is back on the road, and even the fare negotiation wraps up in record time.
Set to US-based musical act Baalti’s track “123”, the film uses rhythm and pacing to mirror its central idea, in a world that moves fast, everything around it must keep up.
The narrative builds on Hurrypur, a fictional world where time is treated as currency and delay is almost obsolete. Through exaggerated yet relatable scenarios, the campaign reflects a broader behavioural shift consumers increasingly expect instant responses, whether from people, platforms or payments.
Navi Limited MD and CEO Rajiv Naresh said the Hurrypur universe is designed to highlight the company’s focus on delivering seamless, time-efficient experiences. Meanwhile, creative agency Sideways and director Ayappa KM leaned into humour and visual energy to push the story beyond a typical product-led narrative.
Instead of listing features, the campaign sticks to storytelling turning a routine inconvenience into a high-speed spectacle.
Because in Navi’s world, even a pit stop refuses to slow things down.
