K Madhavan to be the president of the Walt Disney India
By MYBRANDBOOK
The Walt Disney Company named K Madhavan as the president of The Walt Disney Company India and Star India with immediate effect.
Madhavan initially joined Fox’s Star India in 2009 to head up its operations in south India. He later worked as country manager of Star and Disney India, overseeing the company’s television and studios business in the country. Madhavan replaces Uday Shankar, who stepped down at the end of 2020.
Madhavan will drive the strategy and growth of the media giant in India, with responsibility for the Disney, Star and Hotstar businesses and operations spanning across entertainment, sports and regional channels, and direct-to-consumer, the company said in a statement.
For the past several months, I have had the pleasure of working directly with KM and have seen first-hand how he has adeptly managed our India business, which has been and will continue to be critical to our global and regional strategy,” said Rebecca Campbell, chairman of international operations and direct-to-consumer at The Walt Disney Company.
“A skilled leader with an extensive background in media, KM has taken our vast Star networks and local content production businesses to new heights despite continued industry evolution and significant challenges due to the pandemic.”
