Confirming the move, Bhattacharya says, "I'm currently evaluating a few options and will make a decision by January."

Bhattacharya is most remembered for reviving GSK's brand Horlicks. She has also worked with Airtel, Nestle, Pepsi, ITC, and Unilever during her long stint at JWT.

In 2013, Dentsu started Mama Lab in Tokyo to build a platform for mothers and brands to engage with and benefit from one another. In India, Mama Lab traces the personal histories of moms, across cities and villages, and in-between places. It is an ongoing visual and oral biography of Indian mothers.
