Vinod Prabhakar, chief financial Officer - South Asia, Grey Group (based in Mumbai), has passed away on 26 August. He succumbed to a massive heart attack in the morning, and breathed his last aged 45.

"A jovial, helpful and wonderful colleague, a doting father and a loving husband, Prabhakar will be missed by his innumerable friends and colleagues. He is survived by his wife Beena, his son, Vineet, his parents, brothers and relatives" said a statement issued in his memory by Grey.

May his soul rest in peace.
