Corner Office Conversation with Arjun Nohwar, GM, South Asia, Warner Bros. Discovery The Morning Brief

The world of media and entertainment is going through an era of generational disruption. Some find it scary; others are excited at the fast and furious pace of mega consolidation. Host Arijit Barman sits down with Arjun Nohwar, the GM of Warner Brothers Discovery in South Asia to talk about content, commerce and cinema navigating this landscape. On a personal note, Arjun’s own career path is as interesting as his current industry. From being a key part of a legacy conglomerate like the House of Tatas, he moved to Uber when ride hailing companies, themselves were changing the rules of mobility in big and small cities world over. He joined Warner Brothers to launch its streaming services HBO Max – now rebranded Max -- in India but thanks to a mega merger with Discovery the plans got pushed. But with multiple lines of business – network, content licenses, movie distribution, streaming, consumer products and maybe even theme parks there is a lot to unpack. In between all this Arjun is also a champion golfer with several trophies and a handicap that’s everybody’s envy. So tune in and tee off for a frank and candid tête-à-tête.Films in the Montage: Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, Dune: Part Two, FURIOSA : A MAD MAX SAGA, BarbieCheck out the other interesting episodes like Elections & Extremism: Ground report on the Push for polling in the Naxal-infested Bastar, Caste Census: Data for Development or a Political Ploy?, State Elections 2023: The Political Playbook You Need to Know, The Young Chanakyas of Elections 2024, and more!You can follow our host Arijit Barman on his social media: Twitter and Linkedin
