I've had the unique opportunity to work with Pulak on one of his favorite marketing campaigns; one for Kotak Bank called the Kotak Jifi. This was 2014; and cut to 2021; we've managed to stay in touch and even travel together scouting for Ratnagiri Alphonso mangoes in 2018. While banking and financial services have typically been heavily regulated; it comes as a breath of fresh air to interact with a marketer who's made it so very appealing as a consumer! About Pulak SarmahOur guest today has been conferred with the CMO SUPER 30 HONOR in 2019 by the Internet & Mobile Marketing Association of India and has won numerous awards at the IDMA, DMAi Echo & also the Brand Equity Shark Awards for his work.
