Songfest India, the creative agency that has been associated with some recent, memorable award-winning music IPs and viral advertising campaigns, has decided to strengthen its content arm, and has onboarded Tanushree Paul as vice president, accounts and creative.
Tanushree will be spearheading branded content initiatives and brand associations for Songfest. She will also be working on developing and executing music videos and web shows for the company-owned YouTube channel that has over half a million subscribers.

With advertising going through a lot of transition, as things move more and more towards content, I feel that Songfest is the perfect place where I can get a chance to narrate some heartening stories beyond the boundaries of a 30-second ad film. I look forward to doing some great work with Gaurav, Meghna and the team.”
