According to Dushyant Kohli, “My journey in the mobile TV/over-the-top video and entertainment space has been a learning curve. While I’ve donned many hats throughout my career, I am excited to join Khabri. After working with multiple bigger organizations, I wanted to associate myself with a startup that is addressing the gaps in OTT space in India and catering to the underserved, and Khabri came across as an ideal opportunity. The company has already carved a niche for itself as preferred audio platform in Hindi speaking markets, and I look forward to propelling the company towards its next phase of growth and brand equity.”
