Platforms are infrastructure, content and IP are culture. Mayank and his team at Rusk Media have built a deep understanding of how the next generation discovers and inhabits stories, and that is exactly the kind of vision we want to invest in . Together, the aspiration is to build worlds, not just content.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mayank Yadav, Co-Founder and CEO, Rusk Media, said: \u201cVertical entertainment in India has produced extraordinary reach, but not the enduring IP that defines a category. That is the gap this collaboration is designed to close. We bring a native understanding of how digitally native audiences discover and build community around content, and with YRF\u2019s backing, we are building for longevity, not the algorithm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As the boundaries between cinema, digital, and mobile entertainment continue to dissolve, the franchises that will define the next decade will be those built with both creative depth and digital fluency, and Rusk Media is building for exactly that future. \u200e<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:\u00a0Yash Raj Films Box Office Report Card 2025: Rs. 522.91 cr.
