Dips, who are the big players in Kolkatta?

Would love to see some kolkatta "SCAMS" as that probably would be the best workfrom the region.

Is Anurag Hira famous, I mean has he done anything great, picked any awards lately? I knew he was quite a big shot 10 years back in Equus.

I thot advertising in Kolkatta was non existent. Are they really taking it seriously, I mean if they are into scams, then they must be ambitious :)

Yes, did any Kolkatta agency have success in big international awards, or even AABYs?

Dips, do not hear much about Kolkatta scene. Any famous national level campaign from there? I do not see Kolkatta people very active on forums etc, is it true? You are the only exception...but then all the good people move to other cities...is it true?

kolkata has very few national accounts and releases. many people do leave kolkata to work on bigger accounts. in fact arjun (my copy partner) and i had moved out for a while. but the scene is gettng better now.

bates certainly is the creative agency of kolkata.
