PHD makes two Delhi appointments
MUMBAI: PHD India has strengthened its leadership team in Delhi with the appointment of Dipika Bhasin as the new head of Delhi office while Anuj Madan has been elevated to Delhi digital lead.
PHD India CEO Jyoti Kumar Bansal says, “The appointments reflect the growing demands of our clients based in North India and the volume of activity the Delhi office now manages, especially after the Vivo digital account win and the growth in mandates from HP, SC Johnson and other clients. With Dipika’s deep-rooted knowledge of the North India market and how to make brands thrive there, as well as Anuj’s digital prowess, I am confident that we will continue to see more impressive wins come out of our office in Delhi.”
Bhasin brings over 17 years of experience, joining from sister-agency, OMD, where she spent six years and most recently served as vice president for the Delhi office. Prior to joining Omnicom Media Group in 2011, Bhasin developed extensive media experience through roles at Zee Telefilms, Carat and Aircel.
Dipika Bhasin mentions, “PHD has demonstrated impressive growth, having been recognised as Campaign’s Agency of the Year last year and won prominent international and local business in recent years. I am excited to be joining the team and continuing the momentum in Delhi and North India.”
Madan has an experience in transforming digital businesses for brands like Renault, HP India, Samsung, Amex, Lufthansa and Swatch, among others, over the last 12 years. Prior to joining Omnicom Media Group in 2015, Madan served as a business director at Cheil Worldwide and Mindshare, leading the digital business to build brands by driving high performance marketing.
Anuj Madan adds, “It’s been great to have played a part in PHD’s growth journey in Delhi during my role at Omnicom Media Group, with the recent Vivo win a testament to the agency’s superior digital offering in the market. I look forward to working with Vivo and our other clients in North India on raising their digital credentials and driving real business performance for them as a result.”

Give Me Five mental fitness platform launches in India
Global tool for early stress detection debuts in Hyderabad with live demos.
MUMBAI: Give Me Five just gave mental fitness a high-five because when your mind needs a quick check-up, even the app shows up faster than your inner critic. Give Me Five, a global mental fitness platform focused on early detection and proactive wellbeing, was officially launched in India at a special event at The Park Hotel, Somajiguda, Hyderabad. Founded by Brendan Fahey (30 years years building community solutions in human services), Dr Lisa Fahey OAM (35+ years as a trauma-recovery psychologist) and Phil Dymock (technology lead for expansion across the US, Canada, Australia and now India), the platform encourages small, consistent check-ins to spot early signs of stress, anxiety or burnout before they escalate.
The launch featured a live demonstration of core features, quick mental fitness assessments, data-driven personal insights, wellbeing dashboards, and tools tailored for individuals, workplaces, schools and communities. By making early awareness simple and accessible, Give Me Five aims to foster supportive environments where people feel equipped to act sooner rather than later.
Give Me Five co-founder Brendan Fahey said, “Give Me Five was created with a simple idea that small, consistent check-ins can make a meaningful difference in how we understand and support mental fitness. By making early detection accessible through technology, we hope to empower individuals, organisations, and communities to recognise challenges sooner and build stronger systems of care and support.”
The platform arrives as mental health conversations in India gain urgency, with rising awareness of workplace stress, student burnout and everyday emotional load. Give Me Five positions itself as a preventive companion less about crisis response and more about daily maintenance for the mind.
In a world that tracks every step and heartbeat, Give Me Five quietly reminds us the most important metric is still how we feel—and sometimes all it takes is five minutes and a honest pause to keep the balance from tipping.
