With almost two decades of experience in public relations, Udit began his career with the India Today Group before moving through some of the industry's leading PR agency India. Along the way, he developed a clear understanding of how narratives shape perception, and how the right strategy turns visibility into value.
In 2012, he founded Media Mantra and built an independent communications agency that delivers measurable impact. At the firm, Udit leads business acquisition and oversees the broader growth trajectory. His approach is hands-on and analytical, identifying gaps, creating opportunities, and ensuring the business stays ahead of the curve. Equal parts strategic and accessible, he brings clarity, energy, and direction to every engagement.
Over the years, he has led communications mandates for a diverse portfolio, from high-growth startups to global corporations, helping brands secure visibility, credibility, and, in many cases, critical funding momentum.
The industry has taken note. Udit has been recognised as PR Agency Head of the Year 2026, Brand Communication Icon 2026, PR & Corp Comm Maestro 2024 by exchange4media, PR Agency Head of the Year at Adgully IMAGEXX Awards 2024, and PR Professional of the Year in both 2021 and 2022 by IPRCCA. He has appeared twice on exchange4media's Top 100 Influential Game Changers list and features among the Top 10 Men Leading Large PR Agencies in India.
Today, Udit is driving market strategy, client advisory, and the firm's presence across India, UAE, Singapore, Australia and North America. His vision for the firm is direct: communications should be the most measurable investment a brand makes, and every engagement should produce outcomes that boardrooms can quantify.
