Swati will remain at the agency until the end of March.

Commenting on the announcement, Dheeraj Sinha, group CEO of FCB Group India and South Asia, said: "It's always a pleasure to see our leaders moving up and taking on greater challenges. Udayan and Anusheela are two creative leaders who have amazing talent and energy, and have continually demonstrated a future-thinking approach. With their enthusiasm and passion for creating globally competitive work for our clients, I am convinced they will help write a new future for FCB India and the FCB Group overall."

"We are grateful to Swati, who has played a pivotal role in shaping FCB India's creative direction and fostering a culture of creativity and excellence. She helped put the agency on the global creative map, and we wish her the very best in her future endeavours," Dheeraj continued.
