From the Heart of the BIG Family
BIG Awards 2025 was not just an event; it was a dream turned into history. And this dream came alive because of each and every one of YOU who stood with us, believed in us, and became part of this incredible journey.
A special note of gratitude to the pillars who shaped this vision:
● Mr. Mahendra Gangadharan – IP Founder, whose 35+ year legacy laid the foundation for BIG.
● Mr. Srikant Kanoi – Strategic Advisor, uniting the hospitality fraternity and bringing invaluable guidance.
● Mr. Darshan Prakash – The Curator & Crafter, the brain and heart behind every detail of the experience.
● Ms. Dishti Raju – Branding & Marketing, who gave BIG its global identity and luxury language.
● Mr. Siddarth Mahendra – Production Director, the orchestrator of scale and spectacle.
And to our partners, panelists, entertainers, artists, production crews, and every soul who poured their heart into this — YOU are the true essence of BIG.
Together, we didn’t just host an awards night. We set the stage for India to rise as the epicenter of global events.
