About me
Media strategist with experience at all levels of the media world – from print journalism, to dotcoms, to public relations to social media and much more.
I have been associated with some of the most respected media companies in India and Oman for the last 15 years. As a digital specialist, I have a proven track record in transforming online offerings with compelling content and user activity which ultimately results in new revenue streams. I do social media, I do digital strategy, and I do like to be associated with brands which believe in creative thinking.
Other than advising and managing brands on social media, I also provide public relations services like press releases, press conferences, media relations and content creation to businesses in Oman and India.
200 Not Out
A special mention goes to…
Advertising for the sake of advertising
Following are advertisements of Bank Dhofar, Oman Arab Bank and Bank Muscat, having the same theme –– opening of new branches.

Ideation? Creativity? Take a photo of location and place two arrows, and the ad is ready!

It’s sad that the agency couldn’t think of a better visual than the ‘half-opened door’ for the branch at KOM. The stress is on the manager’s name and details. Why?
This is superb, and very symbolic for KOM. Bank Muscat comes up with best ads among banks in Oman, and their agency, DDB Oman, is doing a terrific job.
Heavy downpour in Muscat
Heavy rains lashed Muscat and surrounding areas on the wee hours of Sunday and continued till around 8am. Like it happens always, life is tough after rains!

The usually busy road near Sheraton Hotel in Ruwi wore a deserted look in the morning.
