MUMBAI: He has donned numerous hats. From
selling space in Yellow Pages to being a
member of a political party, Sameer Nair has
had a volatile career.
The former Star India CEO is now all set to join
Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms as Group CEO.
On 15 July, Nair attended the board of
directors meet and will take full -charge from
today.
Nair said, "I have enjoyed a wonderful
association with the Kapoor family since 2000
following the launch of the hugely successful
'K-series' on Star Plus and later with their
shows on Imagine. Undoubtedly the team has
done a remarkable job of creating one of the
most vibrant entities in content generation. The
M&E industry is currently at a very dynamic
stage and will continue to present several
exciting opportunities across all segments,
heralding significant change in times to come. I
am delighted to have the opportunity of being
a part of an extremely exciting business at one
of India’s most pioneering, creative and
talented media houses. Given BTL's several
strengths as a business, it is very well poised
to capitalise on emerging growth prospects. I
look forward to working together with Ekta,
Shobhaji and the team, in driving strategic
initiatives, furthering the Group's vision of
being regarded as an innovative entertainment
powerhouse and enhancing value for all
stakeholders." http://www.indiantelevision.com/television/tv-channels/people/sameer-nair-joins-balaji-telefilms-as-group-ceo-140716
