The Occasion
The handover of the 100th Air frame for the BrahMos Missile. The venue: 3th floor auditorium, Plant 13 Annexe, Godrej Compound, Vikhroli. The place was abuzz with activity on Tuesday 5th Dec 2017 from 10.30 am. I was honored to be invited to cover the event from the Social Media perspective. I was amongst the selected invitees who were going to witness a landmark in Indian Defense Industry. Godrej along with BrahMos Aerospace were Securing the Nation.
The Event
The event was undoubtedly a Landmark. The opening speech and introduction was done by Sujit Patil, Vice President and Head Corporate Communications, Godrej Industries Limited and Associate Companies. Kaustubh Shukla, COO (Industrial Products Group), Godrej & Boyce then took over and showed the AV. The process of Securing the Nation was ON.
He then invited the panelists to come on stage and welcomed them. The two prominent men of the hour were Brahmos Aerospace Pvt Ltd (BAPL) MD &CEO Dr. Sudhir K Mishra Distinguished scientist and Director General (BrahMos) – DRDO, Ministry of Defense and Godrej & Boyce Mfg Co Ltd Chairman and MD Jamshyd N Godrej. So on behalf of Godrej Aerospace which is a division of Godrej & Boyce Mfg Co Ltd, Jamshyd N Godrej handed over the 100th set of Airframe assemblies to BAPL MD Sudhir Mishra for use in their missile systems.
“It gives me great pleasure to hand over the completion document for the 100th set of airframe assemblies to Dr. Mishra. This is a proud moment for Godrej, Brahmos and India, and an assertion of our commitment to serve our country through technologically driven solutions and indigenous manufacturing,” said Godrej & Boyce CMD Jamshyd N. Godrej while handing over the completion documents of the 100th BrahMos airframe to Dr. Sudhir Mishra.
Press meet and Interview
The event was covered by almost all channels and print media. Post the handing over ceremony, the press and Media wanted to interact with the MD’s and they both agreed willingly answering a few questions of theirs. A small clip of the Interview
The food which followed also had these unusual names which made us hungrier. We could not resist tasting all of it.
I was lucky enough to chat with the two and get some insights on the defense part of our country. I can say that #Godrej and #BrahMos are together committed in #SecuringtheNation

Wow! I really envy you for the opportunity you had! It’s indeed an amazing moment you witnessed. I loved those names of the food items as well…The names Super sonic biryani and Lethal veg angara are quite catchy!
Yes Keerthi, I am blessed to have witness this landmark event. The food names were awesome and we all loved the taste equally well. 🙂
Was so impressed seeing the pics on Twitter itself. Did not know Godrej had moved into this field at all. And look at those names for the food served 🙂 loved the creativity… Hats off to whoever thought them up.
Yes, Godrej has been doing this with brahMos for the last 17 years. They do things quietly. Deploying 300 engineers for this work itself shows the dedication they have. Sujit introduced me to the chef who had curated the menu and saw the creativity he brought in the food with those names. Hats off. 🙂
