“Kanak is one of the most professional, hard working and creative people I know. Having worked together on some of the biggest advertising campaigns at S&F, I’ve always found him to be a pleasure to work with, even in the most stressful situations. Kanak is never short of great ideas and can always turn a contra into a pro and I would recommend anyone who has the chance to work with him to do so.”

“He walked into my office sporting what seemed to be a barcode tattooed on his arm. I don’t remember what he said would show up if you scanned it. Turned out he had “inked” it with a pen. It was neither a barcode nor a tattoo. But it didn’t matter. He thought it might have been the start of an idea for our skincare client.
The entire creative department was working through the night on a massive campaign for this client. And between all the writing and art directing of ads and billboards and films and websites, Kanak was also trying to get out of his comfort zone, creatively getting out of his skin. I remember his hunger for creativity was insatiable. No matter the brief, he always tried to answer it in unconventional ways. Kanak is a perpetual student of great ideas. In the ad world, he knows all the classics and has penned a few of his own. His curiosity and love of words make him a prolific writer and invaluable creative. He’s a professional’s professional, always ready for the next challenge.”

“I have known Kanak for over 6 years and worked with him at Ogilvy. Kanak is the kind of creative who turns challenges into opportunities. His talent for crafting compelling narratives is matched only by his ability to amplify creativity with others. I love working with him, and there’s a method in all of his madness. Great guy to hang out with too. ”

“I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Kanak on several challenging projects. Berlin Tea Company was one of them. His ability to think outside the box while remaining grounded in strategic objectives is remarkable.
