About Bold & Beyond: 60+ Publicists, Strategists & Designers
(ABOUT)
We are publicists, strategists, designers, filmmakers and producers who work as one team on one plan. Bold & Beyond, a unified brand communications house in Bangalore, was built so a brand never has to be split across four agencies again.
(QUICK LINKS)
Bold & Beyond started in Bangalore in 2021 by Sonalika Pawar and Shylesh Jain. The bet was simple. Brands were spending more on communications and trusting it less, because the work arrived in pieces from people who had never met. So we hired strategists before we hired salespeople, and we put PR, design, social and film on the same accounts from day one. It slowed us down for a year. Then it became the reason clients stayed.
The team has roughly doubled every year since. Sixty people now work across Bangalore, Mumbai and Hyderabad, on brands that range from a first-year cafe to Disney, Porsche and Marriott. We are still independent, still founder-run, and still hiring for the same three things: taste, hunger and honesty.

(THE B&B CODE)
How we work matters as much as the work. Five rules, no exceptions, including for the founders.
1

5
Beat expectations, not each other.
Great work is the point. How we get there matters: be radically honest, own your mistakes, and do right by the people next to you.
No solo geniuses.
The best work comes from sharing the idea, arguing about it, and giving credit where it landed.
Comfortable is a warning sign.
Yesterday's best is the floor. Stay curious enough to be embarrassed by last year's work.
Nothing half-hearted leaves the building.
Sweat the details, push for better, and take pride in anything that carries our name.
Prove it.
Anyone can say what they believe. The work is the proof.

(FAQ)
Who founded Bold & Beyond?
(01)
Bold & Beyond was founded by Sonalika Pawar and Shylesh Jain in Bangalore in 2021, with a shared belief that brands deserve more than communication that works in silos. Sonalika brings over 12 years of experience in PR, brand building, and the way they show up in the world. Shylesh brings over 18 years of experience in business and operations, turning big ambitions into businesses built to grow.
Which industries has Bold & Beyond worked across?
(02)
We’ve worked across hospitality and travel, lifestyle, fashion and luxury, F&B, technology, education, and real estate, partnering with both B2B and D2C brands. Our experience spans growing businesses finding their voice to established names, with each approach shaped around the audience, the category, and what the brand needs to be known for.
What makes Bold & Beyond’s way of working different?
(03)
We bring publicists, strategists, designers, video editors, and creatives into the same conversation, from the start. Each discipline brings its own perspective, but the thinking stays connected across the work. So everything, from PR and content to campaigns, works together to tell the same brand story. One house, one shared ambition.
What does a typical project look like?
(04)
Every project starts with understanding the brand, ambitions, and what it wants to be known for. From there, we shape the strategy and bring it to life through the right mix of PR, branding, content, campaigns, and experiences. The approach may vary, but the goal stays the same: to build a brand people recognise, talk about, and remember.
What happens if we’re not sure what we need yet?
(05)
That’s a good place to start. We’ll help you understand what your brand needs, where the opportunities lie, and what the right next step could look like. Sometimes, the best work begins with the right questions. Let’s start a conversation - hello@boldandbeyond.in.
