Anuraag Agarwal, CEO, Amar Chitra Katha, and head, business development, strategy, mergers and acquisitions, Future Group, said, “We are delighted to welcome Preeti Vyas on board our management team at ACK. Her rich experience of over 24 years with children's content, retail and publishing industries will help fructify and add momentum to the exciting future plans we have for ACK Media.”

Agarwal said the company is also thrilled to include FunOKPlease in its portfolio of content offering for children. “Given their contemporary focus, the titles are a perfect complement to our current offering of mythology and history," Agarwal added.

Vyas said, “I am deeply honoured to take on the ‘president' mantle of such a legendary Indian institution as ACK. I look forward, with great enthusiasm, to help its iconic brands, Amar Chitra Katha and Tinkle, reach even greater heights as they endear themselves to a new generation of young readers.

Vyas also added that the FunOKPlease team is thrilled to associate with ACK. “Amar Chitra Katha’s strong marketing, sales and distribution network will enable us to take our unique content to many more young readers across the country."
