Once a glamorous face in Indian cinema, Mayuri Kango who acted alongside Mahesh Babu in the 2000 film Vamsi, is now creating waves in a completely different field. Known for her special song Oho Soniya in Vamsi, Mayuri initially tried her luck in films and TV serials but couldn’t find the success she hoped for. After stepping away from acting, she chose a corporate path, and today, she holds a key position at Google India.
Hailing from Maharashtra, Mayuri’s journey from Bollywood item girl to tech industry leader is inspiring many. After quitting films - her last movie being 'Kashmir Hamara Hai' in 2008 - she moved to New York with her husband. There, she pursued an MBA in Marketing and Finance from Baruch College, Zicklin School of Business, laying the foundation for her corporate career.
Mayuri’s professional graph soared as she held senior roles in top companies, including Performics, a leading digital media agency under the French group Publicis. Her expertise in digital marketing and business strategy paved the way for her current role as India Industry Head – Agency Business at Google India, a position that places her at the heart of the country’s digital advertising industry.
From dancing in Tollywood chartbusters to leading in boardrooms, Mayuri’s story is a real-life script of resilience and reinvention. Her inspiring journey reminds us that dreams don’t end with one career - sometimes, they simply shift into bigger, unexpected roles.
