Bhaskar Das, a trailblazer in India’s media industry, has passed away following a prolonged battle with cancer. Known for his transformative leadership and innovative strategies, Das played a pivotal role in reshaping the Indian media landscape.

Remembering Bhaskar Das, Shashi Sinha, CEO, IPG Mediabrands India, said Das was a powerhouse of energy and enthusiasm and with his passing, the advertising and media industry has lost a true stalwart.

Shashi Sinha said:

"Mr. Bhaskar Das was a powerhouse of energy and enthusiasm—truly unmatched. I’ve yet to meet anyone with his level of passion and professionalism. He was a great mentor and a constant source of support for everyone around him.

It was Bhaskar Das who brought me into the managing committee of the Ad Club nearly 17 years ago, a move that shaped my journey through various industry committees. 

With his passing, the advertising and media industry has lost a true stalwart—a guiding light who will be deeply missed"

This tribute for Bhaskar Das has been written by Shashi Sinha, CEO, IPG Mediabrands India.
