    This news ought to have appeared on Tuesday, but we were too caught up with the cyclone that thankfully didn’t hit Mumbai, though our friends elsewhere weren’t as lucky. Our apologies.

Viacom18 won two Golds while MTV, Chrome Pictures and Miami Design School Mumbai were awarded one Gold each.

    The Golden Award of Montreux awards only Golds and Finalists – there are no Silvers or Bronzes. It is developed in conjunction with adforum.com. Veteran adperson Ajay Chandwani is on the jury from India and has, kind-of, been the ambassador and evangelist for the awards in India for many years.
