    In his next innings, Bhanushali plans to set up a boutique content company to create new age content.
    After serving at Super Cassettes Industries (T-Series) for 27 years, Vinod Bhanushali has put in his papers to start his own entrepreneurial venture.

    Bhanushali was president of global media, marketing, publishing and music acquisition at India’s largest music label.

    He led the marketing of over 1,000 films and was instrumental in making T-Series as India’s largest music company, one of the largest integrated motion picture studios, and creating and building the world’s biggest YouTube channel with over 190 million subscribers.

    In his next innings, Bhanushali plans to set up a boutique content company to create new age content.

    “Having literally started my career at T-Series, it’s an emotional moment for me as I leave the company,” he said. “Whatever I know about music and films, I have learnt it all during my sole long innings in this company. I’ll forever be obliged to my mentor, Gulshan Kumar Ji, and Bhushan Kumar.”

    He added that with every goodbye comes a new beginning.

    “I’ve always worked like an entrepreneur, taking all decisions which were good for business, growth of the company and also for the people who work there. And BK (Bhushan Kumar) supported all my decisions. I’m excited to start something of my own, which I will announce very soon,” he said.
