Veteran actor, investor, and seasoned entrepreneur Suniel Shetty has boarded NKN Media in a strategic leadership and advisor role to accelerate the media conglomerate’s global expansion.
As part of NKN Media’s international growth strategy, Shetty will serve as a Mentor and Advisor. He will leverage his decades of business acumen, corporate experience, and extensive global network to guide strategic scaling, drive high-value international partnerships, and foster new entrepreneurial initiatives.
“Suniel Shetty’s immense star power combined with his proven track record as a sharp investor and entrepreneur makes him the ideal leader to help steer our global vision,” said Abdul Majid Khan, CEO & Group Managing Director of NKN Media. “His guidance will be instrumental as we build purposeful, impactful media businesses on a global scale.”
The strategic partnership comes during a high-growth phase for the Dubai-based media and entertainment firm. NKN Media recently secured a major investment from entrepreneur Dhiraj Jain, Founder of 1XL Holdings, who acquired a 5% stake in the firm. The transaction valued NKN Media at AED 300 million (approximately $81.69 million), providing a robust financial runway for its international market penetration.
In his new capacity, Shetty will also be closely associated with NKN Media’s upcoming flagship television venture, Falcons of Majlis.. The specialized startup funding show is designed to connect promising emerging entrepreneurs with prominent global investors.
