A new year brings new opportunities. It’s that time of the year when Filmfare celebrates and honours the best films of the year gone by. 2015 was particularly memorable because for the first time, Hindi films bridged the gap between the classes and masses. Films that earned the big bucks at the box-office were also the ones that took home the critics’ and audience’s hosannas. One artiste who stands for the balance between art and mart is Sonakshi Sinha.

About Britannia:
The story of one of India’s favourite brands reads almost like a fairy tale. Once upon a time, in 1892 to be precise, a biscuit company was started in a nondescript house in Calcutta (now Kolkata). Today, more than a century after those tentative first steps, Britannia’s fairy tale is not only going strong but blazing new standards, and that miniscule initial investment has grown by leaps and bounds to crores of rupees in wealth for Britannia’s shareholders. The company’s offerings are spread across the spectrum with products ranging from the healthy and economical Tiger biscuits to the more lifestyle-oriented Milkman Cheese. Having succeeded in garnering the trust of almost one-third of India’s one billion population and a strong management at the helm means Britannia will continue to dream big on its path of innovation and quality. And millions of consumers will savour the results, happily ever after.More information on the Company is available at: www.britannia.co.in
