Cocoon Hospital tackles menopause’s hidden danger
MUMBAI: Pulse check, please. Cocoon Hospital has turned up the volume on a condition too often left in whispers, launching its ‘Silent shift’ campaign to spotlight the link between menopause and women’s heart health.
Timed ahead of World heart day, the nationwide initiative calls on women over 40 to recognise that menopause is more than a reproductive milestone. It is also, as doctors warn, a cardiovascular transition that can quietly raise the risk of hypertension, stroke and heart disease.
“Menopause is not just about hot flushes and hormonal shifts, it is about the heart too,” said Jaipur, unit head at Cocoon Hospital, Dilshad Khan. “With ‘Silent shift’ our mission is to break this silence, empower women with knowledge and encourage proactive steps for long-term health.”
The campaign mixes scientific expertise with everyday advice, encouraging screenings, lifestyle changes and preventive care rather than waiting for emergencies. Cocoon Hospital hopes the movement will spark conversations not just in clinics but in living rooms, creating ripple effects through families and communities.
RJ Corp Healthcare, gm– brand strategy & communication, Shikha Girgla added “Our goal is to move critical health conversations into the mainstream and put women at the heart of preventive care.”
With cardiovascular disease still one of the top threats to women, ‘Silent shift’ makes one thing clear: silence is not golden when it comes to the heart.

Prakash Nair reportedly quits Ogilvy after 23 years
One of the agency’s longest-serving leaders has moved on, with his next destination still unknown
MUMBAI: After more than two decades at one address, Prakash Nair has left the building. The president and head of office, north at Ogilvy has moved on from the agency, according to highly placed industry sources. His next move remains unknown. Ogilvy did not respond to requests for comment.
Nair spent over 23 years at the agency, making him one of its longest-serving senior figures. He was elevated to lead the Gurugram office in April 2022, a role that put him at the helm of Ogilvy’s northern operations at a time of considerable churn across the advertising industry.
Before taking charge in the capital, Nair served as associate president at Ogilvy Mumbai, where he worked on some of the agency’s most prized accounts, including Mondelez, Tata Motors, and BP Castrol. Over the years, he built a reputation for driving modern, integrated, and award-winning work, the kind that wins metals at Cannes and keeps clients from straying.
His departure was marked in style. A farewell gathering was held in Delhi, attended by senior figures from across the advertising fraternity, a signal of the regard in which Nair is held in an industry that does not always pause to say goodbye properly.
Where he goes next is the question the industry is now asking. After 23 years at one of the world’s most storied agencies, the answer, when it comes, will be worth watching.
