Anu Ranjan, Editor, GR8! Says, “I am proud that the Event is larger than last year’s and growing all the time. The Categories continue to cover all fields, of course, but more people have participated with their votes. And the Venue itself is bigger – Siri Fort Auditorium in New Delhi.”
Shashi Ranjan, Publisher, GR8! Says, “There has never been any question that Women have always been Achievers and that their Achievements needed to be lauded. But, I think, what the Whirlpool GR8! Women’s Awards has achieved, is something a bit more than just recognising Women for their successes.”
Arvind Mediratta, Vice President Marketing, Whirlpool of India said, “The Whirlpool GR8! Women Awards recognise the achievements of Indian women at home and in the outside world. The awards are a perfect fit with our core Target Audience of modern, contemporary Indian women who have an existence beyond home and hearth. We are proud to be the first to institute awards for Indian women across such a wide variety of fields. The 2nd Whirlpool GR8!
