In addition to the two Golds, OgilvyOne has won eight Awards of Excellence. Of these, three are for Dr Reddy?s Riflux for Frequent Heart Burn. The three entries are titled Clock, Calendar and Heart. Another two are for Sandochew's campaign Maa and Baby and Healthy Bones. The agency's work on Nicholas Piramal's Airitis won two Awards of Excellence. Johnson & Johnson India's Corporate site fetched the last.

An excited Kaizad Pardiwalla, business director, west, OgilvyOne Worldwide, says, ?The Rx Club is one of the most prestigious awards in the healthcare industry worldwide. Having pitted ourselves against the best in the world and come out tops with two Golds and eight Awards of Excellence is a fantastic feeling. That OgilvyOne Worldwide, Mumbai, seems to be the only Indian agency to win a metal makes it even more special.?

Pardiwalla gives credit to the clients for encouraging out-of-the-box thinking. ?This is only possible when you have clients who are partners in the true sense of the word. The healthcare sector is clearly an area of focus for us and with our team of specialised healthcare professionals we will continue to strive for excellence and innovation on behalf of our clients.?
