Meet The Founder

The Big Hat

A communication wizard, Sunchika Pandey is part-strategist, part-storyteller and a full-time creative genius. She’s the “cop whisperer” who made the Mumbai Police popular countrywide with their viral tweets and campaigns. With original ideas and an imaginative, uber talented team by her side, she turned HAT Media into an award-winning playground for brands that don’t want to be boring.

At Hat Media, ‘HatKe’ isn’t just a word—it’s a way of life. Far from boring. Unapologetically original.

We’re a team that thinks wild, laughs without inhibition, and lets creativity blossom beyond comfort zones. Here, ideas fly, playlists blare, curiosity is encouraged, and individuality is celebrated.

And there’s just one non-negotiable: good energy, and more good energy!
