Mythik, the entertainment company founded by former Housing.com CEO Jason Kothari, has appointed Sidharth Kedia as its Chief Operating Officer, where he will oversee operations and strategic finance.
Kedia is a veteran in the media, entertainment, and gaming sector, with leadership roles including:
-
Head of Jio Games
-
Chief Strategy Officer at Viacom18
-
CEO of Nodwin Gaming, South Asia’s leading esports firm
-
Leadership stints at Reliance, where he drove Jio’s telecom launch and integrated Network18 into RIL
On joining Mythik, Kedia said:
“Jason’s ambitious vision for Mythik aligns with how I’ve always imagined our own mythological universe’s potential. Since childhood, I’ve been captivated by these stories, and as a Marvel fan, I’ve often wondered why our superheroes never got the global spotlight they deserve. We plan to change that at Mythik.”
Founded in April 2025, Mythik is a tech-first global entertainment company with a mission to bring Eastern mythology, history, and folktales to worldwide audiences and become the “Disney from the East.”
Soon after its launch, the company raised $15 million in seed funding from investors including Sakal Media Group, BITKRAFT, VC Grid, Visceral Capital, Jason Kothari, and Shah Rukh Khan’s family office.
With Kedia’s appointment, Mythik aims to accelerate its growth trajectory, building a global platform to showcase Eastern storytelling at scale.
