Saatchi & Saatchi creates TVC for Pillsbury
Mumbai: Saatchi & Saatchi has created the new TV commercial for Pillsbury Atta based on an insight that good food often brings small joys to mothers in everyday lives.
The new Campaign, ‘Soft Khao, Soft Bolo’, focuses on the importance of softness of ‘rotis’.
The film opens on a frightened daughter approaching her father at the dinner table with a broken mirror from his scooter, which she had taken out for a ride without his knowledge, expecting to be reprimanded for her mistake. Her mother hints at her to speak to her father after he has taken a bite of the deliciously soft PCFA roti as she expects him to be in a better mood after eating the soft rotis.
As the daughter confesses her mistake she is in for a surprise. Her father, instead of scolding her, tells her how it is important to fall as that’s the way one learns. The daughter is completely surprised and at the same time relieved.
The film ends with how Pillsbury makes soft rotis that help gladden hearts and helps mom win their small joys in life.
Says Saatchi & Saatchi NCD Ramanuj Shastry, “The idea of softness is not just product speak but a cultural reality. The mother is not just the nurturer but also the controller of the family dynamics. It is her soft approach that helps build and nurture stronger family bonds. Taking this thought ahead, we dramatised the situation.”

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.
